If it is good enough for one Michigan man, it is good enough for another. Tom Brady has found a home in Tampa now that he is with the Bucs and it is the mansion owned by Hall of Famer Derek Jeter.
Brady has arrived in Tampa Bay and is in the process of moving his family into the sprawling, 30,000-square foot mansion on Davis Islands built by Yankees Hall of Fame shortstop Derek Jeter, the Tampa Bay Times has confirmed. The home, which they are renting, features seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, an entertainment room and billiards room that wraps around a pool with two boat lifts providing access to Tampa Bay.
Per the New York Times:
At 30,875 square feet, it has seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, a pool, two boat lifts, a drive-through portico and two three-car garages. In 2005 and 2006, Jeter’s development company bought two adjacent lots, paying $7.7 million, in order to give his humble home room to breathe. Construction started in 2010. The home’s nickname among locals? St. Jetersburg.
Brady, of course needs new digs for his family because he recently signed a contract to play with the Tampa Bay Bucs after spending 20 years with the New England Patriots.
Wonder what Jeter thinks of Brady’s decision to move on from the Patriots. Jeter played for the Yankees for his entire career, which spanned 1995-2014.
Brady’s drive to work from Davis Islands to the AdventHealth Training Center is about 7.3 miles, according to the Tampa Bay Times.
