Power couple Aaron Rodgers and Danica Patrick just made the biggest splash of the year in Malibu by purchasing a $28 million beachfront mansion. Rodgers, a two-time NFL MVP, and Patrick, a former racing driver, began dating last year.
As first reported by TMZ, the massive sale ended in November. That’s good for the coastal city’s third-highest deal of the year, surpassed only by entertainment executive Ron Meyer’s acquisition of a modern property on Pacific Coast Highway. The only thing that sold for $29 million was Golden State Warriors majority owner Joe Lacob’s $29.1 million purchase of a modern home in Carbon Beach. summer.
It has an attractive tan exterior covered in clay tiles that flaunts a different style. Set on a narrow lot leading to a sandy beach, this clifftop property has two separate buildings: a three-story main house and a two-bedroom guesthouse/garage.
Mr. Rogers and Mr. Patrick are not the only prominent owners of the property. Public records identify the person as belonging to Netflix executive Ted Sarandos and his wife, former U.S. ambassador Nicole Avant. They paid $20.25 million for the house in 2017 and sold it a year later for $21.25 million to British pop star Robbie Williams, who sold it to Rodgers and Patrick.
Concrete floors, glass walls, and wood chips complement the interior, which is centered around an open floor plan with a living room, dining area, and gourmet kitchen. Other highlights include a family room, office, and den.
Four bedrooms and four bathrooms (including a master suite with a huge deck) complete the main house. Outside, there is a pool between the two buildings. There is a resort-style deck and lounge in the back, overlooking the ocean. A lush landscape cascades down the hillside.
Considered one of the best quarterbacks of all time, Rodgers boasts the league’s best career passer rating of 102.7 and the lowest career interception rate of 1.5%. In 2010, he led the Green Bay Packers to a Super Bowl victory and was named the game’s MVP.
Patrick, a native of Wisconsin, is perhaps the most successful woman in American horse racing history. In 2008, she became the first and only woman to win an IndyCar Series race and continued to compete throughout the 2000s, retiring last year.
