I had to write about this for the blog seeing how I live and work here in Silicon Valley, particularly seeing how the valley is part of the San Francisco Bay Area. And for us here in the Bay Area, unless they were living under a rock, the Golden State Warriors was engaged in a heated battle with the Cleveland Cavaliers for the Championship and lost the final game. 

Anyhow, the Warrior's start player, Steph Curry his home in Orinda (near Oakland) for a cool $4.65M.



Warriors' Steph Curry sells his home court in Orinda for $4.65 million

Steph Curry may have fallen short in his bid for a second championship, but the Golden State Warriors star has emerged from the playoffs a clear winner in the real estate game.

Earlier this month, Curry sold his home in Orinda, Calif., for $4.65 million in a deal completed off-market. That’s $755,000 more than his reported asking price and, perhaps even better, $1.55 million more than he paid for the property three years ago.

Sitting on more than half an acre, the tree-topped estate centers on a Spanish-style main house that was built in 1963 and renovated in 2008. A front  yard swimming pool and spa, an outdoor kitchen, garden beds and a putting green fill the grounds.

Inside, the 4,700 square feet of interiors feature a contemporary yet classic feel. Arched doors and windows, beamed ceilings and elaborate fixtures are among details of note. Rich hickory wood floors create visual interest against hand-finished plaster walls.

Formal living and dining rooms, an office/den, a family room with a wet bar, five bedrooms and five bathrooms lie within a single story. Two refrigerators, two dishwashers and a professional range highlight and over-the-top chef’s kitchen are included.

Curry has since moved on to Walnut Creek, Calif., where he and his wife, Ayesha, purchased an 8,000-square-foot home last year for $3.2 million.

The 28-year-old point guard helped the Warriors shatter numerous records this season enroute to his second Most Valuable Player award. The former first-round pick out of Davidson College averaged a league-best 30.1 points per game during the regular season and broke his own record of made three-pointers with 402 treys.
