Retired New York Yankees star catcher, Jorge Posada and his wife Laura are the proud owners of 9335 Balada Street in Coral Gables. A waterfront estate that is now for sale and is situated in the upscale Old Cutler Bay neighborhood in Coral Gables.
Just two years before he retired in 2012, the five-time All-Star is claimed to have paid $6.25 million for the home in 2010, according to Mansion Global. The Coral Gables home is currently on the market at $19.9 million.
The former MLB player’s waterfront estate includes a stunning 11,800 square foot home with seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, a private boat dock, and a six-car garage. Additionally, it is outfitted with a plethora of amenities, such as an infinity pool with canal views and a putting green where you can work on your short game whenever the desire strikes.
The interior of the house has a distinctly modern aesthetic with accents of brilliant white and shiny finishes. On the first level, there are two double living rooms, an ultra-modern chef’s kitchen, and a formal dining room with a wine rack installed on the wall.
Additionally, there is a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor areas, with various covered terraces, three balconies, and a two-story outdoor entertainment area complete with a summer kitchen.
The main bedroom is located upstairs, and it has an unbelievable walk-in closet that is about the size of two separate bedrooms put together. Naturally, the former athlete’s estate has a gym as well as a navy-colored movie theater, two home offices, and a basement with a pool table.
