Tennis legend Serena Williams seems to be looking forward to putting down roots with her growing family. With the due date for her second pregnancy nearing, Williams is still hunting for a place to settle down. The former World No. 1 owns multiple properties, but right now, as she is keen on family time, she is trying to pin down the home she wants to welcome her second baby in.
Williams owns luxury mansions at Palm Beach Gardens in Florida and at Beverly Hills in Los Angeles. However, in 2021, the American tennis legend made the choice to bid adieu to one of them. Finally, after two years on the market, she is saying farewell to her beautiful home.
Serena Williams parts ways with her multi-million dollar Beverly Hills mansion
Despite retiring from professional tennis, the 23-time Grand Slam champion has had to travel to various locations for her off-court endeavors. But that didn’t stop Williams from listing one of her mansions for sale in 2021.
Serena Williams listed the LA-based Beverly Hills mansion for a $7.5 million deal. The massive 6,000 sq. ft property boasts of a wine cellar, a yoga room, and a pool with a covered patio. Williams bought the three-story Spanish-style mansion for $6.68 million. Moreover, the Ario Fakheri-developed house became Williams’ property after she gave birth to her daughter Olympia, with Alexis Ohanian.
Nonetheless, the couple stayed in their Florida home. The couple is staying with their daughter at Venus Williams‘ Florida home in Palm Beach Gardens.
The tennis star listed her LA property back in 2021, even before the news of the new baby came into being. Williams seems to have decided long ago that she wanted to stay put in one place with her family. Interestingly enough, when she bought the house, she had just started dating Ohanian!
Safe to say, the L.A. mansion has seen their relationship blossom and grow. But with her current listing of the LA home, the couple might have decided to move forward, extending their family at their expansive Florida home. Recently, Serena also shared a glimpse of the secret annexure in her Miami home – a feature that would enthrall young kids and grownups alike!
Inside Williams’ Miami home lives a secret
The 23-time Grand Slam champion has always had an exuberant side to her personality. This is something she has also inculcated in her Miami mansion. Residing there with her husband and young daughter, Serena has built a secret room that gives her mansion a mysterious, old-school touch.
Recently, she took to her Instagram to share a snippet of the secret annexure. Blocked off by the living room bookshelf is a hidden doorway that leads off into another room! While this came into being with a collaboration with Venus Williams’ interior designing firm, V Starr, Serena has not yet revealed the purpose of the secret living room. As she remodels the exquisite place for her growing family, what do you think will happen to the hidden room? Will she do away with it, or will she add more? Let us know in the comments below!
