After 8 Mos. Ownership, Miami Heat Coach Erik Spoelstra Lists Coconut Grove Estate

Erik Spoelstra, head coach of the NBA’s Miami Heat, has decided to sell his recently purchased historic estate in the high-end Coconut Grove neighborhood of Miami, Florida, for $2.7 million.

Spoelstra has decided to move on from the compound just eight months after snapping up the 1938-built property and its 4,294-square-foot house for $2.6 million.

The home holds five bedrooms and six bathrooms and is set within tropical gardens, shading oak trees, and winding pathways.

Spoelstra signed a contract extension over this past offseason and recently got married this past summer, so it doesn’t look like he’s leaving Miami, but he is definitely looking to move on from Coconut Grove.

The 46-year-old head coach began his tenure with the Miami Heat in 1995 as a video coordinator in 1995 and was an assistant coach on Pat Riley’s staff from 1997 to 2008 before taking over the helm in April of 2008. Spoelstra led the Heat to back-to-back NBA Championships in 2012 and 2013 during a run of four-straight NBA Finals appearances.
