Larry Bird’s Party-Ready Florida Mansion Listed For $4.8M | Pound Ridge Real Estate

After an injury-induced hiatus, former Celtics star Larry Bird is back in commission as the Indiana Pacers team president, and is thus selling his Florida mansion, which he built from the ground up in the late ’90s, for $4.8M. The design scheme for the 6,000-square-foot, four-bedroom home leaves a lot to be desired—unless you love beige drapes and columns—but with a 10-person home theater, an infinity pool, a tiki hut, and a full-service bar with the obvious—a built-in aquarium—the Bird’s Naples hideaway is nothing if not a roarin’ good time. No word yet on whether Bird plans on dropping by for a little one on one, but one can dare to dream.
