Joe Montana Selling Home for $35M

Homeowners across America have drastically sliced the prices of their homes in an attempt to sell in this sluggish economy and that now includes NFL Hall of Famer Joe Montana.

The difference between Montana and the rest of American homeowners looking to sell (aside from his four Super Bowl rings)? After reducing the price, his home outside San Francisco will still cost you $35 million after Montana originally tried to sell it for $49 million (get it?) in 2009.

Located in Calistoga, CA, the home includes three bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, nearly 10,000-square feet, 500 acres, a pool, a bocce court, an olive farm, a skeet-shooting range, a full-sized basketball court and an equestrian stable.

Not bad considering this was Montana’s vacation home while he wasn’t in Southern California, where he and his wife Jennifer reside outside Los Angeles.

Montana, of course, is best known as the greatest NFL quarterback of all time who was an eight-time Pro Bowler with the local San Francisco 49ers that retired from the NFL after the 1994 season. He now owns his own wine label, Montagia, and has four children – two of which are currently in college football.

Who knows, if current 49ers quarterback Alex Smith continues playing the way he has and leads the Niners to their first Super Bowl in nearly two decades, maybe “Joe Cool” will throw in a “discount” to the current QB.

    So, for $35 Million, the kitchen table can come with a Joe Montana autograph? “Joe at here!”
    And then of course, that other end of the house with an autograph on the toilet seat, “Joe flushed here!”
    I’m writting my pretend check as we speak. : )

    Well, if you don’t have $35 million, but would like a celebrity home, why not check out our web site, LegendofFrenchLick.com,and view the 20 acre former home of basketball great Larry Bird which we are selling at a mere $1.65. Go hiking, skiing, golfing, boating, hunting, casino and much, much more.

    WOW!!!!! I wish I could live in a house like that!!!!

  • Ed

    500 acres near San Fran. That’s where you get a big chunk of that price tag. The home is gorgeous and one could only dream of having it.

  • come on

    Who on this earth needs a home like this??/ What a piece of crap Montana is.

  • Do Nothing… Get Paid

    I guess you would like to sell that place, you’d get what… about $99,000 for Waltzing folks around the place and playing Big Shot with other people’s holdings. Realtors are amoung the most self absorbed folks alive. You invest absolutely nothing, you own nothing you sell and even tho you would say there’s no “Price Fixing” 6% is what almost every Office gets per sale. “oh look what I sold”…. you didn’t sell anything, the person either likes the place or they don’t… your “pitch” has nothing… NOTHING to do with the buyer buying the house or not buying. You think your such great Sales Persons but your just the lucky stiff who got called to list the house… so sit down and shut up with the “I sold a I Million Dollar House” talk, because in reality, no you didn’t sell the house, the person who “OWNS” the house SOLD IT, you can’t sell something you don’t OWN….. And this area is for comments not your Grasp At Greed…. so remove this post or I’ll have it removed for you BIG SHOT…

  • Bobbie

    @Chris..that was a really unattractive property..very podunk look to it…shouldn’t be mentioned any where near this one.

    • Chris

      Bobbie,

      You know, it is really a beautiful place, totally updated inside. The grounds, facilities, view and area are outstanding. But Larry Bird was called “the Hick from French Lick.” Can’t do anything about that.
