Retired baseball star and living Twitter legend Jose Canseco is seeking to part ways with his mansion in Las Vegas, putting it up for sale with an asking price of $1.6 million. If he finds a buyer at that price, he'll be making a tidy $500,000 profit compared to the $1.1 million he bought it for in 2021.
Discovering the Mansion's Luxurious Features
Located a little bit outside downtown Las Vegas in a ritzy gated community, Canseco's Vegas castle is more than 5,100 square feet of Sin City luxury, with five bedrooms and four and a half baths. It's what the official listing describes as “an entertainer's dream.” The home boasts a variety of features that make it appealing to potential buyers.
Among the standout features is an attached casita with a full kitchen, living and dining area, and a private front entrance. The casita comes complete with backyard access, a fireplace, and 2 bedrooms with 1 bath. This setup is perfect for elderly parents or college students, making it an attractive option for families looking for multi-generational living.
Stunning Interior and Exterior Amenities
Inside the mansion, the kitchen is outfitted with high-end Wolf appliances, a wine fridge, and custom cabinetry, providing both style and functionality. The large, beautifully maintained backyard features a waterfall and koi pond filled with koi fish that will convey with the sale, adding to the property’s allure. Additionally, there’s a built-in BBQ, perfect for summer gatherings.
The front and backyard are equipped with artificial grass for easy maintenance, making it a low-effort paradise for owners. The master bedroom is oversized, offering ample space for a cozy seating area, while a downstairs bedroom includes its own bathroom and backyard access, ensuring convenience for guests or family members.
Community Perks and Accessibility
The listing also mentions another perk of the property: the community well provides all water, so it has no monthly water bills. This can be a significant savings for homeowners, especially in a city like Las Vegas where water usage can add up. Additionally, the mansion features an electric fence enclosing the yard, providing an extra layer of security.
Prospective buyers will appreciate the purportedly quick and easy access to the Vegas airport, making travel a breeze. This location is ideal not just for those looking to reside in Las Vegas but also for anyone who frequently travels for work or leisure.
Market History and Current Listing
As previously mentioned, Canseco purchased the property in 2021. He first listed it for sale in September of last year, when it had an asking price of $1.7 million. A month later, he reduced the price by $100,000. Now, the home is back up for sale at the same asking price of $1.6 million. This reflects the ongoing dynamics of the real estate market as sellers adapt to buyer interest.
