    NFL Star Maxx Crosby Scoops Up a Baller-Worthy Las Vegas Estate

    by

    Armed with a four-year. $94 million contract extension that will earn him a substantial $19 million base salary in 2024, three-time Pro Bowler Maxx Crosby has decided to use some of those funds to pick up a snazzy Las Vegas residence in the Summerlin community’s exclusive guard-gated Mountain Trails enclave, paying just over $5.6 million. The Las Vegas Review-Journal first revealed the sale.

    Madd Maxx—as the NFL’s fourth highest-paid defensive end is known to Las Vegas Raiders fans—wound up getting a pretty good deal on the modern digs, which were first listed by local dentist Bill Dickerson for nearly $13 million back in winter 2020. Records show Dickerson purchased the home for $2.8 million in 2003, with previous reports stating that he subsequently acquired the lot next door, then combined the properties and added a second structure housing an extravagant indoor basketball court sporting an upstairs viewing gallery with a fireside lounge, kitchenette and views of the surrounding valley.

    As for the Silver-and-Black pass rusher’s new 1.2-acre spread, which was built in 2002, the place features seven bedrooms and 12 baths in a little more than 20,500 square feet of two-level living space adorned throughout with marble floors, high ceilings and soaring walls of glass. In addition to the basketball court, other standout amenities include a movie theater, wine cellar, billiards room and gym.

    An indioor basketball court also can be used for lacrosse, tennis and volleyball.

    A gated motorcourt with six garage spaces is tucked off to the side of the creamy stucco and terracotta-roof dwelling, with a separate gated entrance leading up to the towering wood-and-glass door front door via a fountain-enhanced walkway. Once inside, an expansive double-height great room has a sunken dining room warmed by a fireplace and an adjacent wet bar-equipped living area. Around the corner is a family room, which connects to a gourmet kitchen outfitted with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, dual islands, top-tier stainless appliances, a walk-in pantry and an accompanying breakfast nook.

    A curving staircase heads upstairs, where a sumptuous master retreat is decked out with a window-lined sitting area, private balcony and walk-in closet, as well as a spa-inspired bath flaunting dual vanities and an elaborate soaking tub sheathed in marble. And scoring the go-ahead touchdown? The lushly landscaped grounds, which are spotlighted by a boulder-laced swimming pool and spa, an in-ground trampoline, and numerous spots ideal for al fresco lounging and entertaining with niceties like a built-in barbecue and fire-pit.

    In addition to his newly purchased Summerlin estate, Crosby and his wife Rachel Washburn also reportedly still maintain a nearly 3,000-square-foot home in the Nevada city of Henderson that they picked up for $480,000 in 2020.

    The listing was held by Austin Sherwood of Luxury Estates International; Kathie Castro of Realty ONE Group Southwest repped the buyers.

      A Wealthy British Entrepreneur Flips Steve Wynn’s Former Las Vegas Mansion Back Up for Sale

      by

      Less than two years after he paid Steve Wynn $17.5 million for his palatial Las Vegas residence, British businessman and investor Simon Dolan is ready to let it go, this time with a hefty $24.5 million ask. And though there probably aren’t any priceless Matisse and Picasso paintings remaining from the avid art collector’s nearly four-year stay in the luxe European-style digs, there definitely are plenty of casino tycoon-worthy amenities—a crystal-accented staircase, plush movie theater and lift-equipped garage that can accommodate up to six vehicles, just to name a few.

      Custom-built in 2001—and sited in the exclusive guard-gated Country Club Hills development within the Summerlin planned community, about 12 miles west of the Strip—the golden-hued stucco and terracotta roof structure is nestled on almost 1.5 acres overlooking the TPC Summerlin golf course, and tucked away behind walls and its own set of gates.

      The golden-hued home is fronted by a spacious motorcourt.

      Inside, six en-suite bedrooms and 11 baths are sprawled across 15,000 square feet of two-level living space that reportedly underwent a $16 million remodel during Wynn’s tenure in collaboration with noted designer Todd-Avery Lenahan. Think marble floors and pillars, walls sheathed in mohair and silk, bespoke carpets, automated draperies and designer light fixtures, plus high-tech security, fire-suppression and smart-home systems.

      Other highlights include a double-height entry foyer displaying the aforementioned crystal staircase, along with a formal living room, two offices topped by custom backlit ceilings and a fireside family room sporting a climate-controlled wine cellar. A formal dining area leads to the gourmet kitchen, which comes complete with walnut cabinetry, an eat-in island, top-tier stainless appliances and an accompanying breakfast room.

      The family room has a decorative fireplace and access to a climate-controlled wine cellar.

      Elsewhere is the movie theater, a library and duo of fully equipped gyms, as well as a posh master retreat boasting dual showroom-style closets and luxe baths; and outdoors, the manicured grounds host a garden bolstered by a tiered fountain and nearby gazebo, sundeck-encased pool and spa, and sport court, plus ample spots for al fresco lounging and entertaining amid the picturesque golf course and mountain vistas.

      A self-made millionaire who amassed his fortune through accountancy services, Dolan also has dabbled in the motor racing and aviation industries, and made headlines back in 2020 when he challenged the U.K. government in court over the country’s pandemic lockdowns. Wynn, meanwhile, resigned as chairman and CEO of Wynn Resorts in 2018 after allegations of sexual misconduct. Between them, they lay claim to several multimillion-dollar homes, with Dolan owning an estate on the Caribbean island of Mustique that once belonged to David Bowie, and Wynn maintaining several residences spanning from New York City to Beverly Hills, the latter of which is currently on the market for a whopping $75 million.

      The listing is held by Elizabeth Schwartz Fray of Urban Nest Realty.

      Kyle Dean Massey and Taylor Frey are Seeking $4 Million for Their Glitzy Las Vegas Mansion

      by

      Now that they’re planning to relocate across the pond to London, Kyle Dean Massey and Taylor Frey’s stylish mansion in the affluent Spanish Hills community of Las Vegas has unsurprisingly popped up for sale.

      The married acting duo—Massey best known for his work on Broadway in Pippin and Wicked, and Frey who penned and is set to star alongside Kyle Richards and Rick Cosnett in the upcoming film The Holiday Exchange—are asking just under $4 million for the sprawling ranch-style home they picked up for $1.5 million a little over two years ago, back in spring 2021.

      Originally built in 2002, but since extensively renovated and customized to suit the couple’s personal tastes, the white stucco and terra-cotta-roof structure rests on one-third of an acre, within an exclusive guard-gated community that also has been home to Nicolas Cage and Mötley Crüe’s Vince Neil through the years. Inside, five bedrooms and three baths are filtered across 6,000 square feet of single-level living space accented throughout with gleaming marble floors, high ceilings, designer lighting, and Versace, Roberto Cavalli and Phillip Jeffries wallpaper treatments.

      A formal living room just off the foyer has a marble fireplace and more than enough space to put a grand piano.

      John Martorano

      Glassy double front doors open into a soaring foyer, which flows to a formal living room boasting a fireplace and plenty of room for a grand piano. Other highlights include an office space warmed by a fireplace and secluded by a curving floor-to-ceiling wall of glass with automated curtains, and an open-concept great room holding a fireside family room that connects to a gourmet kitchen outfitted with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, dual islands, a swath of top-tier stainless appliances and an accompanying breakfast nook.

      A massive primary bedroom has French doors that open directly to the pool and spa area.

      John Martorano

      Sequestered in one of two bedroom wings by itself is a luxe master retreat, which comes complete with yet another fireplace, a sitting area, spacious walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath spotlighted by a steam shower and round soaking tub resting on a bed of lava rock.

      French doors lead to the resort-like backyard, which is laced with fruit trees, and hosts a pool with a cascading waterfall and spa, as well as several spots ideal for al fresco lounging and entertaining. There’s also an attached four-car garage sporting an EV charger.

      The listing is held by Avi Dan-Goor of Douglas Elliman.

      With a $76 Million Buy-In, Steve Wynn’s Former Lake Tahoe Estate Is Yours for the Taking

      by

      Almost six years after it was last sold for $31 million, a luxe Lake Tahoe estate previously owned by Steve Wynn has returned to the market once again, this time asking a whopping $76 million. Built by the disgraced casino mogul in the early 1990s, the nearly 5-acre spread sits in the affluent Incline Village enclave of Nevada, replete with 210 feet of waterfront footage and a private beach.

      Should the place go for anywhere near that amount, it would set a record for the most expensive residential real estate transaction ever recorded in the Tahoe area—eclipsing the $48 million sell of a Zephyr Cove mansion back in 2013.

      Records show Wynn sold the “Old Forge” estate for $17 million in 1998. The current owners are Nora Lacey, founder of the biotech company Cell Marque, and her husband, Dr. Michael Lacey, who picked up the place in 2017 and then spent millions of dollars extensively renovating the premises. 

      A wood-paneled wine room is one of many snazzy amenities filtered throughout the home.

      Nestled on a stretch of Lakeshore Boulevard known as “Billionaires’ Row”— where residents include Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, former junk-bond king Michael Milken and tech billionaire Larry Ellison—the property features a main home and separate guesthouse—for a total of seven bedrooms and an equal number of baths in almost 14,200 square feet.

      In addition to a wealth of protective equipment installed by Wynn during his tenure—bulletproof glass on the front doors, a 9-foot fence around the perimeter and massive security system—other amenities include a movie theater, as well as gym, massage area and game/wine room. There’s also a four-car garage, plus a private deep-water pier, boat hoist, jet ski platform and two buoys.

      Steps lead from a hot tub-equipped terrace to a grassy back yard overlooking the lake and Sierra Nevada Mountains beyond.

      Scott Chandler Productions

      A lengthy gated driveway leads to the primary wood and stone-clad structure, which features a little more than 12,600 square feet of living space highlighted by a vaulted great room boasting a wet bar and walls of glass overlooking the lake, along with a family room anchored by a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, formal dining room, and gourmet kitchen outfitted with an eat-in island, top-tier stainless appliances and a butler’s pantry

      Four bedrooms include a posh master retreat, which has French doors spilling out to a terrace sporting a hot tub, paired with dual walk-in closets and baths; and three additional bedrooms can be found in the 1,536-square-foot guesthouse.

      The waterfront spread features a private beach and deep-water pier.

      Scott Chandler Productions

      According to The Wall Street Journal, which first reported the sale, the Laceys have decided to let go of the estate because they are downsizing their property holdings. The couple already has homes in the California cities of Los Altos and Newcastle, where they operate an orchard.

      The listing is held by Christine Perry of Christie’s International Real Estate Sereno.

      Gene Simmons’s Former Beverly Hills Estate Was Transformed Into a Modernist Retreat. Now It Can be Yours for $48 Million.

      by

      The mansion that Gene Simmons called home for over three decades has reemerged on the market, and even he might not even recognize it.  

      The Kiss bassist’s former Beverly Hills residence is up for grabs, and it appears to be totally different than how he left in 2021. Now listed for a cool $48 million—which, for the record, is triple what he sold the digs for back in 2021—was redesigned by Los Angeles-based design firm, Nobel. Today, the Benedict Canyon estate sports a much moodier exterior and ultra-modern interior with tons of Italian marble, custom stone oak wood panels, and shiny brass accents. Honestly, it’s giving rockstar vibes.

      Christopher Amitrano

      The 16,390-square-foot spread sits on two acres with seven bedrooms and 11 bathrooms. One of the best features has always been the parking situation, and luckily, that remains unchanged. You’ll find a three-car garage attached to the main house and another structure below it with the capacity to hold 20 additional vehicles. Elsewhere, the grounds sport a 60-foot knife-edge swimming pool, plus an outdoor barbecue area with space for up to 20 guests and three swanky chandeliers hanging overhead. 

      Internally, the abode is brimming with natural light thanks to huge custom iron windows. The gourmet chef’s kitchen has been decked out with Poliform cabinets, top-of-the-line Gaggenau appliances, and a breakfast area. Naturally, an eye-catching all-marble island takes center stage. The property also includes a media room and a primary suite with its own private balcony, sitting room, and his-and-her wardrobes. Not to mention, it comes with furnishings from Minotti and Henge and Baxter. 

      The home has been totally renovated and is super modern in style

      Christopher Amitrano

      Before Simmons ended up offloading his home, he put roughly $11 million worth of upgrades into the pad. Though, he ultimately ended up selling to live full-time at his mountain mansion in Nevada. However, he recently decided to part ways with that property, too. 

      Listing agents Josh Altman and Matt Altman of Douglas Elliman were unavailable for comment.
