Detroit Pistons star player Blake Griffin recently purchased a mansion in Brentwood, Los Angeles, for a whopping $5.9 million. The lavish 5,893 square foot home was built in 1936 and comes with five bedrooms and six bathrooms.
Griffin got lucky with this property as the two-story house was initially listed in May for $6.698 million with Jordana Leigh of Rodeo Realty. It was then on the market for a reduced price of $5.995 million and finally brought by the basketball star, listing records show. The gorgeous house is built in the traditional/quasi-colonial style and includes a formal living and dining rooms, a media room, a kitchen, and a family room with a fireplace and large windows, according to the listing. For entertainment facilities, the house comes equipped with a pool with spa, a gym, a billiards room and a wine cellar.
