According to reports from Variety's James McClain, Mookie Betts splurged $7.6 million on his new home in LA and lives only a few doors away from NBA star Tristian Thompson. Betts, who helped the Dodgers to their first World Series in 32 years, opted to treat himself to brand new stunning mansion this week.
In his new 9,300 square feet of living space, Betts has nine bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. In addition to that, Betts also has a full-sized basketball court, a poolside cabana with a flatscreen TV and a firepit on a "conservation island" in the middle of the pool at his new place.
Highlights include a chandelier-topped dining room, marble kitchen, indoor-outdoor living room and walk-in wine closet with a candy machine outside. The main floor at Betts' new palace has the maid’s quarters, a home theatre, a gym with its own sauna, and a temperature-controlled walk-in wine closet. The five-time Gold Glove winner also lawn that leads to the rear of the estate, where there’s a full-size sports court for at-home training.
However, the four-time All-Star might have a bit of a commute to work as his new mansion is about 20 miles away from the Dodgers stadium. Reports claim that Betts' newly-purchased home was previously owned by NFL coach Chip Kelly. Kelly bought the property in 2018 for around $7million.
