Mansion of legendary MLB announcer Vin Scully sells in California for $14M. Peek inside
The beautiful French chateau owned by iconic Los Angeles Dodgers broadcaster Vin Scully has jumped off the real estate market in Hidden Hills, California, for less than its asking price.
The seven-bedroom, nine-bathroom estate — which stretched over 11,600 square feet — was listed in October for $15 million, McClatchy News originally reported, and sold for $14 million.
The house, lovingly dubbed Home Plate, was bought by the baseball legend for $12.4 million in 2009, the Los Angeles Times said.
“Our home was full of so many beautiful memories, love and laughter, but as my dad used to say, there is a season and a time for everything in life,” listing agent Cat Scully, Vin’s daughter, said in a news release when the estate was listed.
“This was his wish, with the prayer that now a huge chapter of our family story had come to an end, the proverbial torch in our home would be passed to the next family to continue making beautiful memories.”
The house came with a plethora of fine features including:
Guest house
Wet bar
Theater
Wine cellar
Library
Swimming pool
Outdoor kitchen
Guest apartment
Scully, who had one of the most recognized voices in all of baseball, was with the Dodgers when they were still in Brooklyn and moved with the team to Los Angeles in 1958. He died on Aug. 2, 2022, at 94.
Compass held the listing.
