IndyCar Legend Michael Andretti Just Listed His Waterfront Indiana Estate for $12 Million

by

An Indiana estate owned by Motorsports Hall of Famer Michael Andretti—known to his fans as the “Black Knight”—has officially rumbled onto the market as he shifts into retirement. Nestled on the outskirts of Indianapolis in the suburban city of Fishers, the sprawling waterfront spread is listed for nearly $12 million with Joel Woelfle and Allen Williams of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices.

The former racing champ and IndyCar team owner and his model wife Jodi bought the 1990s property in late 2016 for nearly $2.2 million. They razed part of the existing home and rebuilt and expanded it over the next three years in collaboration with builder Rob Annee of the Palladium Group. Sited amid a gated parcel spanning over five acres, with 570 feet of shoreline along the manmade Geist Reservoir, the chateau-style residence has a total of nine bedrooms and 12 baths in roughly 21,000 square feet.

Three garages spanning 5,500 square feet can accommodate more than 12 vehicles.

In addition to the three-story main home, which features a dedicated guest suite, a detached carriage house with two 900-square-foot one-bedroom apartments was tacked on in 2023 by Dan Elliott Custom Homes. Primed for auto enthusiasts, a trio of climatized garages encompassing a whopping 5,500 square feet can accommodate more than a dozen vehicles.

A turreted entryway opens to reveal a cove-ceilinged living room anchored by a fireplace and large expanses of glass offering picturesque lake views. A fireside hearth room connects to a gourmet kitchen with a 14-foot island, an Italian Ilve range, grilling and wine stations, and a tucked-away caterer’s kitchen. A retractable 20-foot wall of glass in the space spills out to an expansive veranda with automated screens.

Other highlights include a glass-walled sitting room and a wood-paneled study sporting a stone fireplace, plus a posh upstairs primary retreat that comes with a two-way fireplace, reading and coffee nooks, dual walk-in closets, and a luxe bath with a gold glass-tiled barrel ceiling. A private 1,700-square-foot guest wing has two bedrooms with baths, a great room, a full kitchen, and direct garage access.

Four more bedrooms can be found on the lower level, which also features a 15-seat bar, a 700-bottle wine cellar, a movie theater, an arcade, and a fitness center. Doors open to the resort-style grounds, which are spotlighted by a 50-foot pool with a spa, waterfalls, a waterslide, and fire features, as well as multiple terraces, a heated and cooled children’s play cottage, and a three-slip boat dock. Architectural plans for a 4,400-square-foot sports building are also available.

The 50-foot pool comes with waterfalls and a waterslide.

The couple recently relocated to a lavish waterfront mansion in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, they purchased from Nevada-based American Recovery Services founder Patrick K. Willis for $27 million.

    ‘Home Improvement’ Star Patricia Richardson’s Longtime L.A. Home Lists for $10 Million

    Back in 1996, about five years into her eight-season run as mom and wife Jill Taylor on the popular 1990s sitcom Home Improvement, Patricia Richardson picked up a home in L.A.’s Brentwood neighborhood, just south of Sunset Boulevard. Fast-forward nearly three decades later, and the Cape Cod-inspired estate has returned to the market for nearly $10 million. David Yadegaran and Shaun Alan Lee of Carolwood Estates hold the listing.

    Ground zero for two family weddings and several SAG-AFTRA events during the Emmy- and Golden Globe-nominated actress’s ownership, the light gray and white-trimmed structure is tucked away behind 20-foot privacy hedges and double gates and fronted by a semi-circular driveway. Originally built in the 1930s, the updated residence offers a total of seven bedrooms and nine baths in roughly 6,600 square feet.

    The kitchen has a central island, open shelving, and a breakfast banquette overlooking the gardens.

    A columned portico entryway opens into a chandelier-topped foyer leading to formal living and dining rooms flaunting the original hardwood floors. A vaulted family room with a stone fireplace and French doors spilling outside connects to the rustic kitchen, which is outfitted with a butcher block island, open shelving, stainless appliances, and a breakfast banquette. The main-level primary suite features a fireplace, built-in cabinetry, a walk-in closet, and a lofty bath sporting a soaking tub encased within cobalt blue tile.

    Another en suite bedroom completes the first floor, while two more upstairs bedrooms share a bath. The picturesque grounds tend to steal the show here, though. Dotted with mature redwood trees and meandering stone pathways, they include several alfresco lounging and dining terraces surrounded by a dark-bottom pool with a spillover spa, a grotto-style bar beneath a waterfall, and a barbecue station flanked by raised flower beds.

    The fireside primary suite opens directly to the the pool area via French doors.

    Rounding it all off is a two-bedroom, two-bath guesthouse that comes with its own living and dining areas and a full kitchen. There’s also a private space with a bath and walk-in closet above the three-car garage that could be used as a gym, an office, or staff quarters.

    Richardson, who also starred in Lifetime’s medical drama Strong Medicine and had recurring guest roles on The West Wing and Grey’s Anatomy, has decided to downsize into a condo in the L.A. area now that her three children are grown, according to The Real Deal.

    Robert Herjavec and Kym Johnson’s Sydney Harbor Home Can Be Yours for $12.5 Million

    Having scooped up a historic mansion in Sydney’s ritzy Centennial Park Federation last year for a whopping AUS$22.8 million (about US$15 million), investor and TV personality Robert Herjavec and professional dancer Kym Johnson have hoisted their harborfront condo in Rose Bay on the market with a AUS$19 million guide price (about US$12.5 million), as reported in The Sydney Morning Herald.

    The telegenic duo, married in 2016, picked up the ground-floor residence about four years ago for AUS$13.5 million (about US$8.9 million) and the listing held by Michael Pallier of Sydney Sotheby’s International Realty shows the single-level unit has three bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms, plus a detached single-car garage with a lift that allows it to park a second vehicle.

    The minimalist kitchen includes a huge marble island.

    The sleek, contemporary interiors, courtesy of MHN Design Union, are complemented by a high-tech home-automation system, integrated ceiling speakers, and a video intercom. Highlights include a linear fireplace and a hidden cocktail bar, oak floorboards, cotton-white Venetian plaster walls, and Ralph Lauren silk wallpaper. All three bedrooms have limestone-sheathed en suite bathrooms. The main bedroom has a spacious walk-in closet and garden access, while one of the guest rooms includes a small adjoining study/home office.

    A minimalist kitchen stocked with designer appliances anchors one end of the great room, and the other has a wall of glass that slides open to a covered terrace with a stainless-steel outdoor kitchen. Foliage lines a patch of turf and frames views of Shark Island and the Harbour Bridge across Rose Bay. A private path shared with other residents of the small building provides direct access to the dog-friendly Rose Bay Beach.

    Glass sliders open the condo to a covered patio with an outdoor kitchen.

    Herjavec, a computer security pioneer, seeks investment opportunities on both the U.S. and Australian versions of Shark Tank, and Johnson is a ballroom expert who has appeared in both the U.S. and Australian versions of Dancing with the Stars. The couple met while partnered on the popular program’s 20th U.S. season, where they placed sixth. (Johnson won season 9 while partnered with Donny Osmond.)

    Herjavec and Johnson still own an international collection of private homes. In addition to their Centennial Park Federation mansion, bought from Afterpay co-founder David Hancock and his caterer-turned-philanthropist wife, Fiona Hancock, they maintain a sprawling lakefront spread in Port Carling, Ontario, Canada. They also have a residence in L.A.’s Hidden Hills enclave, bought in 2023 for $26 million; a waterfront home with a private dock in Newport Beach, California; and, the most recent addition to their portfolio, a $19 million condo on New York City’s Billionaires’ Row that they bought earlier this year.

    Diane Keaton’s Former Beverly Hills Home Just Listed for $25 Million

    Hollywood icon Diane Keaton passed away a couple of weeks ago, leaving behind a five-decade-plus career and legions of fans across the globe. The Oscar-winning Annie Hall star’s talents even transcended her acting career, with her architectural prowess leading her to become a prolific and design-savvy house renovator and flipper—particularly in Los Angeles, where her real estate portfolio has included a wealth of notable Spanish-style properties through the years.

    Before her death earlier this month at age 79, Keaton lived in a Pinterest-inspired abode in Brentwood that was for sale in March; but the property failed to trade hands and was delisted before her death. Before that, she resided in a Lloyd Wright-designed midcentury home in Rustic Canyon that was recently up for sale. She was also the onetime owner of this striking Spanish Colonial Revival in Beverly Hills that was just listed for $25 million with Rayni and Branden Williams of the Beverly Hills Estates.

    Keaton transformed the entry foyer into a cozy bookshelf-lined library with a sitting area.

    “My feeling is that you find an authentic house and, authentically, try to restore it,” Keaton told Architectural Digest during a 1999 tour of a Wallace Neff- and John Byers-designed home she owned at the time. “I wanted a Spanish Colonial because I’m in love with California and our history. I see it in a romantic way—the twenties, indoor-outdoor living, arches, comfort. California has a wealth of beauty. My fantasy would be to continue to buy homes that are representative of the architecture of California and restore them.”

    Keaton doled out $8.1 million for the 1920s Ralph C. Flewelling–designed dwelling in the desirable Flats neighborhood in 2007 and then joined with favored designer Stephen Shadley to undertake a meticulous renovation that was subsequently featured in AD. She transferred the place three years later for $10 million to film and TV producer Ryan Murphy, who sold it in 2021 for $16.5 million to the current owners, hedge-fund manager Seth Wunder and his designer wife, Cailin.

    Set beyond walls and gates on a hillside parcel spanning nearly half an acre, the celeb-pedigreed estate offers a total of six bedrooms and nine baths in roughly 8,400 square feet. A sprawling motor court and towering cactus gardens front the two-story residence, which boasts a mix of dark wood and glossy terracotta floors, exposed wood-beam ceilings, arched doorways, hand-forged wrought-iron accents, and period light fixtures. French doors open seamlessly to the outdoors.

    A central bricked courtyard shaded by pepper trees is bolstered by a bubbling fountain.

    Simon Berlyn

    RELATED: Mark Wahlberg’s Former L.A. Mansion Is Back on the Market for $21.8 Million

    A standout feature is a combination foyer/library that is topped with a groin-vaulted ceiling, wrapped in bookshelves, and bears the inscription, “The Eye Sees What the Mind Knows.” Other highlights include a living room warmed by a stone fireplace with a curving brick surround and a formal dining room that opens to an arched colonnade and a fountain-clad brick courtyard beyond. A family room and casual dining area connect to the kitchen, which sports an expansive marble island and stainless appliances.

    Two guest bedrooms can be found downstairs, while four more upstairs bedrooms include a secluded primary retreat that comes with a fireplace, a dressing room, and dual baths. A pair of balconies in the primary overlook the picturesque grounds, which host a guesthouse alongside a pool and spa, a sport court, and several sitting and dining areas. There’s also a gym, a wine cellar, and a two-car garage.

    Kanye West Sells a Wyoming Ranch as Kim Kardashian Expands Her SoCal Estate

    Kanye West and Kim Kardashian split up years ago, but their individual real estate moves still make headlines—sometimes concurrently. While Ye has been shedding West Coast properties (sometimes at a tremendous loss), The Kardashians star is quietly creating a fortress of privacy back in SoCal’s celeb-packed Hidden Hills enclave.

    The latest on West is that he has sold Bighorn Mountain Ranch, one of his two sprawling properties in Wyoming, for $14 million, and the buyers are the very same family he bought it from back in 2019. The 6,713-acre high-country estate, previously owned by David and Paula Flitner, returns to the family under the stewardship of its next generation, Greg and Pam Flitner. West’s wife, Bianca Censori, notarized the sale on his behalf in Switzerland in late September, according to Cowboy State Daily.

    Surrounded by national forest, Bighorn Mountain Ranch dates to 1906 and is a true Western paradise. Think rolling grass-covered hills, deep tree-lined canyons, and game-filled bluffs framing multiple lodges and cabins. Amenities like heated helicopter pads, trout-filled creeks, and prime elk-hunting terrain blur the line between rugged adventure and high-end escapism.

    RELATED: A Hidden Hills Mansion With Ties to Kanye West Lists for $17 Million

    Kanye West sold back Bighorn Mountain Ranch in Wyoming to its original owners.

    Bill Vacek with Hayden Outdoors Real Estate

    When West acquired the ranch in 2019, his ambitious vision included a combined mega-ranch featuring a “Yeezy Campus,” self-sustaining creative spaces, and affordable “Yecosystem” housing for the homeless. He also used Bighorn as a private retreat during his divorce from Kardashian, calling it his “therapy ranch,” where he worked on his 2021 albumDonda and hosted family and high-profile guests—including Justin Bieber. 

    The younger Filtners quickly listed two portions of the vast spread: Snowshoe Lodge and Mountain Island popped up at $5.9 million, and Bighorn Mountain Hideout was listed for $5.75 million. West is also looking to shed his other Wyoming compound, Monster Lake Ranch, currently listed with a $12 million price tag. Hayden Outdoors Real Estate represents all three properties.

    While there have been reports of unpermitted construction that was halted and the tearing down of some buildings at Monster Lake, Pam Filtner noted in the Cowboy State Daily that the Bighorn Ranch structures have thankfully remained intact. “They may need a little TLC, but they’re all solid.”

    Kim Kardashian’s added another home (bottom right) to her multi-acre Hidden Hills compound.

    Meanwhile, the All’s Fair actress and soon-to-be-attorney has been quietly fortifying her Hidden Hills compound. Just days before turning 45, the SKIMS founder made a clandestine off-market deal valued at $7.1 million for the home next door to her $60 million mansion. The four-bedroom, five-bath property on 1.4 acres features a pool, spa, and private tennis court. 

    She already owns a neighboring home—scooped up in 2022 for $6.3 million—and whether she folds her new purchase into her six-plus-acre spread or repurposes it remains a mystery, but one thing is clear—she’s creating a sizable buffer of security and privacy around her already sprawling estate. The acquisition coincides with a major renovation of her primary residence, an overhaul that reportedly doubled its size and incorporated below-ground additions like a wellness center and guardhouse.

    Different landscapes, different ambitions—but the real estate game is still very much a Kardashian-West affair.

    A Comedian and an Heiress Have Put Their Vintage L.A. Mansion on the Market at $22 Million

    Around a decade ago, Lydia Hearst traded the East Coast for the West Coast. The heiress to William Randolph Hearst’s publishing empire and the daughter of Patty Hearst left behind a New York City condo she purchased in 2008 at age 23 to relocate to bigger marital digs in Los Angeles with her soon-to-be husband, actor and comedian Chris Hardwick.

    Now both those properties have simultaneously hit the market. Hearst’s former digs in Manhattan just listed for $2.2 million with Paul Kolbusz and his team at Corcoran, while her and Hardwick’s impressive estate in the Los Feliz neighborhood of Hollywood Hills is up for sale at $21.5 million with Hardwick’s mother, Sharon Hills of Rodeo Realty.

    The terracotta-tiled entry foyer boasts Corinthian-arched columns and a carved wood ceiling.

    RELATED: An Emmy-Winning Comedy Writer Just Listed His 1920s L.A. Home for $6.3 Million

    Records show Hearst and Hardwick, who have relocated to the Central Coast, acquired their Los Feliz home in 2015 for $11 million and have since undertaken an extensive and meticulous restoration. Originally built and designed almost a century ago for affluent banker Victor Rossetti and his wife Irene at a cost of $47,000 by trailblazing architect Paul R. Williams, the Spanish Colonial Revival villa was designated as a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument in 2008. It’s also covered under the Mills Act, which offers significant property tax savings in exchange for preserving the historic appearance.

    Set amid two parcels of securely gated land spanning over an acre near Griffith Park, the stucco and terracotta-roof structure is known as the Victor Rossetti Residence and features a total of 10 bedrooms and a dozen baths in roughly 9,000 square feet. Two-and-a-half levels of L-shaped living space are laced throughout with coffered and hand-painted ceilings, stained glass windows, whimsical wallpaper, built-in alcoves, and three ornate fireplaces.

    The living room comes with a coffered ceiling and a carved stone fireplace.

    Tyler Walz

    Standing out in the non-staged abode is a striking entry foyer that steps down to a fireside living room, plus a wood-paneled library. A formal dining room and a breakfast nook connect to an updated kitchen sporting floor-to-ceiling tile, top-tier appliances, and an accompanying butler’s pantry and breakfast room, with other highlights including a primary suite with a separate sitting area and a massive walk-in closet, along with a media room, a pub-style lounge, a wine room, and a door disguised as a bookcase that leads to a lower-level room for entertaining.

    Outdoors, the lush grounds host a pool and a summer lounge, a pergola-shaded kitchen and barbecue setup, a fire pit and a two-way fireplace, and a “secret” garden with a koi pond, a citrus grove, and several fountains. Two guest spaces each have a full bath and kitchenette, and a two-car garage is supported by additional parking for up to 25 vehicles. An adjoining property tacked on by the couple includes a 1,500-square-foot home that comes with approved city plans for customization, a renovated pool, and a newly refurbished pool house.

    A combined living and dining area in Hearst’s former N.Y.C. condo offers city and Hudson River views.

    Perched on the 30th floor of the Sheffield building, the two-bedroom, two-bath unit has just over 1,100 square feet and features a combined living and dining area offering city and Hudson River views via nearly 25 feet of windows wrapping its corner locale. The kitchen sports a marble backsplash and countertops paired with Bosch, Miele, and Sub-Zero appliances, a primary bedroom has a bath with a soaking tub and a shower, and another bedroom with a custom built-in Murphy bed can double as an office or den.

    Meredith Vieira’s Manhattan Penthouse With Central Park Views Lists for $12.5 Million

    Meredith Vieira is officially signing off from her New York City penthouse. Per The New York Times, the broadcast journalist and TV personality best known as a co-host of The View has hoisted her elegant pied-à-terre in Manhattan’s Central Park West neighborhood on the market for $12.5 million. Deborah Kern of The Corcoran Group holds the listing.

    Records show she and her husband, Richard Cohen, an Emmy-winning TV producer who passed away last December at age 76, acquired the co-op unit in 2014 for nearly $9 million as a retirement place that would be comfortable for Cohen, who suffered from multiple sclerosis and penned a bestselling memoir about the disease. Vieira, who still maintains a primary residence in Irvington, New York, and a Cape Cod beach house, told the Times, “I needed the apartment to have high ceilings and to have a lot of light; I needed it to be one level; and I needed it to have outdoor space.”

    The dining area is separated from the living room by a two-way fireplace.

    The city digs, located on the 19th floor of the landmarked Art Deco Eldorado building designed by noted architect Emery Roth in the 1930s, offer three bedrooms and four baths across 2,800 square feet. Largely original yet modernized interiors are outfitted with herringbone oak floors, 10-foot ceilings, oversized casement windows, and decorative moldings, plus central air-conditioning and a couple of landscaped bluestone terraces spanning about 1,400 square feet.

    Other highlights include a private elevator landing and foyer that lead to a living room and dining area separated by a two-way limestone fireplace and lined with French doors opening to a southern terrace overlooking the city and Hudson River. Nearby is a closet that’s been converted into a bar, plus a windowed kitchen equipped with custom wood cabinetry, stone cabinetry, and Bosch, Wolf, and Sub-Zero appliances. A walk-in pantry comes with a wine fridge, while a breakfast nook has banquette seating.

    Elsewhere is a bookshelf-lined office with an attached powder room that could easily be used as a bedroom, as well as a secluded primary suite featuring an integrated entertainment center, plenty of closet space, and a tiled bath equipped with dual vanities and a large walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms include one with its own bath and another with access to a hallway bath, with all three spilling out to a northern terrace offering views of Central Park and the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir.

    The new owner will also be privy to plenty of amenities courtesy of an $8,332 monthly maintenance fee, including a 24-hour doorman, a concierge, a live-in superintendent, a fitness center, a children’s playroom, bike storage, and shared outdoor space. There is also a $268 monthly assessment through 2027 for window work in the building.

    According to the Times, the 71-year-old Rhode Island native says she might eventually buy another place in Manhattan, where she serves as a guest anchor on Today. A permanent host from 2006 to 2011, her lengthy career has also included stretches on 60 Minutes and The View. She currently helms the TV game show 25 Words or Less.
