Former NFL quarterback Drew Bledsoe has placed his Oregon home on the market. The New England Patriots/Buffalo Bills quarterback, who retired in 2006, is asking a cool $9.95 million for the Bend, Oregon, estate.
As you would expect from a former athlete, the rustic looking residence is a sportsman’s dream. The home rests on 10 acres within a gated community. It boasts almost 15,000 square feet of living space, and has a pool, two hot tubs, a putting green, a basketball court with retractable backboards, and stunning views of the Cascade Mountains.
Inside, you’ll find some impressive amenities, including 7 bedrooms, 10 bathrooms, lofted beam ceilings, stone fireplaces, a gourmet kitchen, a formal dining room, a den and office, and a wine room.
The home was designed by Janet Jarvis in 2008.
Bledsoe was a star at Washington State University before selected first overall pick in the 1993 NFL Draft by the New England Patriots. In his playing days, he appeared in four Pro Bowls and won a Super Bowl ring in 2002.
