Michael Jordan’s Legendary $9.5M Mansion Is Now on Airbnb – And It’s Absolutely Insane
Basketball fans and luxury travelers, take note: you can now live like Michael Jordan — at least for a week — in his jaw-dropping former mansion, which has just been listed on Airbnb Luxe. The legendary Chicago Bulls star’s 56,000-square-foot Highland Park estate, famously hard to sell for over a decade, has officially hit the short-term rental market with features as over-the-top as MJ’s career itself.
Once listed for $29 million, Jordan’s estate finally sold in December 2023 for $9.5 million after spending 12 years on the market. Now, under new ownership, it’s been transformed into one of Airbnb’s most exclusive and expensive listings.
A Dream Home for Sports Lovers and Luxury Seekers
The estate, known as “Champions Point,” sits on 7.4 acres of private, gated land just outside Chicago. It boasts seven bedrooms, 19 bathrooms, and more amenities than most five-star resorts.
Unsurprisingly, the centerpiece is a full-sized indoor basketball court, complete with the Jumpman logo and custom flooring. But that’s just the start. Guests can also enjoy an NBA-level gym, tennis court, putting green, zero-edge infinity pool, private movie theater, cigar lounge, wine cellar, game room, and even a beauty salon. There’s also a stocked fishing pond and a massive outdoor entertaining space.
Every detail screams luxury — from high-end materials to the custom number “23” emblazoned on the front gate.
Price Tag Fit for a Legend
If you’re ready to live like Mike, you’d better bring your wallet. A one-week stay will cost around $120,000, depending on the time of year — and that doesn’t include the jaw-dropping $25,000 security deposit or the required nondisclosure agreement. There’s a strict 7-night minimum stay, and the property is limited to 12 guests at a time.
This is no party house — it’s marketed as a luxury retreat for high-net-worth individuals, celebrities, or brands looking for a one-of-a-kind venue.
From Real Estate Headache to Airbnb Gold
Michael Jordan originally built the home in 1995, but despite its iconic design and world-class amenities, the property proved nearly impossible to sell. Its size, upkeep costs, and ultra-personalized features made it a tough sell — until investor John Cooper finally bought it and pivoted to Airbnb Luxe as a creative solution.
Rather than let it sit unused or face zoning issues tied to commercial redevelopment, Cooper has opened it to short-term renters, offering a chance for fans and guests to experience the GOAT’s lifestyle firsthand — even if just for a week.
Final Thoughts
Whether you’re a lifelong Jordan fan or just someone with money to burn, staying at Champions Point is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It’s more than just a luxury rental — it’s a piece of sports history. With its outrageous features and unmatched exclusivity, this Airbnb offers a glimpse into the world of a basketball icon, complete with the kind of extravagance only someone like MJ could inspire.
Now the only question is: if you had the money, would you book it.
