Tennis legend Ivan Lendl sells his 445-acre Connecticut estate for mammoth $12 million: Reports

Ivan Lendl recently sold his 445-acre estate in Connecticut for a massive sum of $12 million, according to a report by Mansion Global. Allan Greenberg, one of the US's most acclaimed designers, designed the 18,000-square-foot estate.

Lendl reportedly put the Cornwall estate up for a silent sale in March 2023 and didn’t do much to publicize his estate listing. The lavish estate was designed for him and his wife in 1992 and includes several posh amenities like a pool, sauna, tennis court, play court, and a vegetable garden.

The property, reportedly listed for $25 million in 2005, sits in the Litchfield Hills. Tennis journalist Randy Walker wrote about the sale on X (formerly Twitter):

Ivan Lendl also reportedly owned a seven-bedroom estate in Greenwich earlier that was built in 1928, and he primarily resided there during his US Open runs. He later sold the estate in 2020 for $5.2 million, according to reports.

He had listed the Cornwall property in 2016 for $19.8 million.

Lendl's luxurious pad that was sold recently was reportedly considered his summer home. He was said to have bought the Cornwall estate in the 1980s for around $4.2 million and sold it at nearly a threefold amount.

The name of the mansion's buyer remains anonymous and has not been found in any property records yet.

Ivan Lendl, known for dominating the sport during the 1980s, ended his third coaching stint with Andy Murray in November 2023 following a season marked by challenges.

Ivan expressed his appreciation for Murray following their separation, stating that he had a great time with the Scot and that he cherished their memorable moments together. He praised Murray as a hard-working champion and emphasized that the sport is enhanced by his presence.

Lendl was quoted as saying according to Sky Sports:

"I will look back with some great memories of the time Andy and I worked together. He's as hard a worker as there is and the sport is better because of him. I wish him only the best in the years to come."

The Czech legend has a long-term professional relationship history with Murray. He first started coaching him in 2011, before ending the partnership in 2014. Lendl also coached Murray between 2016 to 2017 before working together again in 2022.

Ivan Lendl secured eight Grand Slam titles during his career, including three consecutive US Open titles (between 1985-1987), three French Open titles (1984, 1986, 1987), and two Australian Open titles (1989, 1990).

Lendl officially retired in 1994 and has since transitioned into coaching. After his second stint with Andy Murray ended, Lendl also coached Alexander Zverev for a while.
