Two months after his release from the Arizona Diamondbacks, MLB catcher Gerald Laird has put his Spanish-style home in Scottsdale, AZ on the market for $1.85 million.
The Diamondbacks have appeared in two World Series during his 12-year career with the MLB - one win (in 2011, with the St. Louis Cardinals) and one loss (in 2012, with the Detroit Tigers). The catcher has squatted behind the plate for five teams and played in exactly 799 games, appearing for the Diamondbacks in a single contest this season.
According to Realtor, the gorgeous property is certainly private enough for a professional athlete. Located in a small community, the estate sits on a one-acre land surrounded by trees, hedges and drought-tolerant plants.
Listing agent Kelly Karbon says, "It's a great family home and a great entertaining home." All four bedrooms of the property have their own en suite bathrooms, and there are numerous seating areas outdoors with fireplaces to keep you warm on chilly evenings.
The custom built home of MLB catcher Gerald Laird is inspired by a classic Mediterranean design. The house offers a nice ambiance and a very livable elegance. Located in the picturesque enclave of Sierra Hills and embraced by the surrounding McDowell Mountains, every inch of this 6,489 square foot property has been thoughtfully planned to meet all of your needs.
Realtor also added that the house features spacious living areas and multiple flex rooms. The home has four bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, as well as has great features of an office, theater/media room, and an attached guest casita. The property really offers plenty of room to accommodate, including a garage for four cars.
The house also features multiple patios with fireplaces, an outdoor kitchen, pool and spa. The landscape has a grassy play area that offers many options for great fun with the Arizona outdoor lifestyle.
The master bedroom has a walk-in closet and a separate exit. The master bathroom features a private toilet room, double sink, a separate shower and a tub.
