Inside Look at Tom Brady’s House

Like every other average celebrity, one of the ways Brady spends his millions is by building his own mansions from scratch. In 2009, around the time he was dating supermodel Gisele Bundchen, Brady bought a 4-acre piece in Brentwood California and began building on it. Three years later in 2012, he had completed the building of a massive 14,317-square-foot eco-mansion.

The mansion includes 6 bedrooms, a fully-equipped gym with custom-made wrought-iron monkey bars, an outdoor kitchen, an infinity pool complete with cabana and a pond on site complete with waterfall. However, in 2014 after living in the house for barely 2 years, he sold it to record producer Dr. Dre for $40 million.

Brady then had another house custom-built for him on a 5.2-acre land he bought for $4.5 million in Boston. The house located near the very exclusive Brookline Country club measures over 14,000 square feet and includes 5 bedrooms with a master suite with his and hers closet, 4 bathrooms, gym, library with a balcony, a motor court, wine cellar, kitchen with pantry, and sunroom.
