As a member of the Oklahoma City Thunder, veteran NBA center Kendrick Perkins has purchased a home in Edmond, Oklahoma. Now that the NBA player is now playing for the Cavs, a report from realtor.com states that the same house bought for $615,000 has been listed on the market.
The 5,646-square-foot property is NAHB green certified. This means that the home is efficiently built to leave small carbon footprint on the environment. The certification requires the house to be energy- and water-efficient; the natural surroundings are conserved as well with the installation of eco-friendly cooling and heating systems. The appliances also used in the home should be Energy Star-rated.
The kitchen has an ornate design with wood cabinets. There is a brick vent that surrounds the stove as well as granite countertops. There is a chandelier from the entryway's loft ceiling, and a fireplace can be found in the spacious living room.
The front of the home is made of stone and brick. The pathway leading to the home is also reportedly impressive. According to listing agent Ty Weston of Elite Real Estate & Leasing, "It's a beautiful house that's nice and open. All the rooms are massive."
Perkins was traded to the Utah Jazz who bought out his contract, according to a report from Cleveland.com. After the buyout, he was choosing between two teams who wanted him, namely the Los Angeles Clippers, to be reunited with his old coach with the Boston Celtics, Glenn 'Doc' Rivers, or be part of the team of LeBron James, who had returned to his hometown Cavaliers after four years with the Miami Heat. He chose the latter, leading him to his latest run at the NBA Championship. Perkins' net worth is $26,432,310, according to celebritiesmoney.com.
