The tennis world was abuzz with excitement as news broke that the former home of Serena Williams in Bel Air was up for sale. Known for her dominance on the court, Serena had made a name for herself not just as a tennis legend, but also as a savvy real estate investor.
Living in a mansion that exuded luxury and elegance, Serena had called this place home until 2019. Despite the hectic schedule of a tennis player, having a warm and inviting home to return to was essential for her. It was a place where she could unwind and relax, away from the pressures of the professional tour.
The property, which Serena had bought in 2006, was later sold to interior designer Rodrigo Vargas in 2019. However, just five years later, the mansion was back on the market, this time with a hefty price tag. Initially valued at $8.75 million, the property’s worth had skyrocketed in 2024 to a staggering $13.5 million.
With six bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and a plethora of luxury amenities including a swimming pool and jacuzzi, it was no surprise that the price had inflated so drastically. This was just one of the many properties that Serena had acquired over the years, showcasing her eye for prime real estate and luxurious living.
As news of the sale spread, fans and real estate enthusiasts alike marveled at the splendor of Serena’s former home. The spectacular price tag only added to the allure of the property, solidifying its status as a coveted piece of real estate in the exclusive Bel Air neighborhood.
In the words of the agency Sotheby’s International Realty, this mansion was truly a standout piece in their portfolio. The legacy of Serena Williams, both on and off the court, continued to leave a lasting impression on those who admired her talent and taste in all aspects of life.
