David Ortiz aka Big Papi, the former slugger for the Boston Red Sox, sold his house in the Miami region for $10.55 million. Ortiz's ritzy Miami mansion worth $10,600,000 boasting sports bar is nothing less than a dream.
The Pinecrest, Florida, property, which has five bedrooms and around 10,200 square feet area, was offered for $12.5 million in February. According to listing agent Michael Martinez of ONE Sotheby's International Realty, the transaction broke records for the suburb.
According to Martinez, the buyer is relocating from Boston to Florida. Martinez stated that although the buyer enjoys baseball, he is unsure if Ortiz's ownership of the house had any influence on the buyer's choice to buy.

After purchasing the lot in 2016—the year he announced his retirement from professional baseball—for $1.5 million, he and his ex-wife, Tiffany Ortiz, began construction on the home in 2019.
The house contains a room with a bar where sports memorabilia is on display. A bar and an eight-seat theater with a light-up ceiling that mimics stars in the night sky are also there. In addition, there are numerous water features, three fire pits, a gazebo, a garage, and a pool on the approximately one-acre plot.

In 2004, Ortiz helped the team snap its 86-year World Series championship drought.
