Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III’s career got off to a hot start with the Washington Redskins, but after four seasons in the nation’s capital the 26-year-old quarterback’s relationship with the team came to a close after he was released and signed a new deal with the Cleveland Browns.
It looks like RGIII is ready to leave DC in his dust and has listed his nearby Leesburg, Virginia, home for $2.75 million. The 8,561-square-foot farmhouse-style mansion has four bedrooms and four bathrooms, including a four-stop elevator to make getting around the spacious manse easier.
Griffin’s soon-to-be former home also boasts other amenities befit an NFL star, such as a grand kitchen with Habersham cabinet work, a wine cellar, a wet bar, a library, a home theater, multiple fireplaces, and a large infinity-edged pool with an attached pool house.
Ironically for the new owner, and probably a major driver of Griffin’s desire to get out of the area, Redskins head coach Jay Gruden is one of the home’s neighbors.
