Tom Brady's Former Boston Condo Is Listed for Almost $7 Billion

With football ranking as the 4th highest paid sport in the industry, team members put their seemingly unlimited wealth towards the most luxurious cars and homes. Quarterback Tom Brady is a star example. In 2004, Brady purchased a rather bespoke condo complex in the luxurious Bay Busk neighborhood of Boston with his wife, model Gisele Bundchen. The unit - which takes up the entire second floor of the historic Burrage Mansion - was priced at a whopping $4,125,000 million.

Brady attributes his outstanding wealth to his stellar time as a quarterback for the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He's revered as the NFL player with the most Super Bowl wins, having six glorious victories under his belt and aired all over the world.

Brady has since moved to a different location, selling the mansion for $5.28 million in 2008. The historic castle-like estate made recent headlines as it hit the market again when it was listed by Campon and Company at $699 million. This new listing makes it one of the priciest spots in all of Boston.

The Boston Globe describes the condo as a, "three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom home spanning the second floor of the opulent building located at 314 Commonwealth Ave."

The site goes on to mention the many posh amenities that come with the space, such as dazzling chandeliers, marble tiled bathrooms, and direct elevator access to the foyer.

The property was built in 1899 by prestigious architect Charles Brigham. Affluent industrialist Albert C. Burrage tasked Brigham to build a home that was a reflection of his opulent life. The architect did not disappoint - carving around a hundred intricate portraits of wildlife and cherubs in the stonework of the exterior and embellishing the interior with pleasing stain-glass and mosaic motifs throughout the interior.

"I think it’s arguably one of the prettiest buildings in Boston,” Tracy Chapman, an affiliate of Campion and Company, tells Real Estate Boston. 

Burrage's family owned the mansion up until his widow's death in 1947. The building was first sold in the 50's and was renovated into doctors offices until being bought by Boston Back Bay Board & Care Limited Partnership to be turned into luxury nursing homes.

From business tycoons to an NFL title holder, the Burrage Mansion has housed generations of well-off households. The world will be watching to see who the next lucky tenant is.
