Wilt Chamberlain’s Legendary Lair Rebounds Onto the Market for $14.9M

by

The former bachelor pad of basketball legend Wilt Chamberlain is back in the sales lineup again.

The 9,395-square-foot mansion was custom-built for the NBA star in 1971 by architect David Rich. Chamberlain chose the secluded 2.5-acre hilltop lot for its privacy and views.

Chamberlain died in 1999, and the home was extensively renovated from 2008 to 2013.

The mansion was “inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright‘s organic style and the natural beauty of California,” according to Zac Mostame, who represents the listing with Santiago Arana and Jonathan Carr.

It also features an untold number of bedrooms as well as eight bathrooms.

In his 1991 autobiography, “A View From Above,” Chamberlain boasted of bedding more than 20,000 women, many of them in this home.

Among the ’70s-era highlights of the home were a primary suite with a mirrored, retractable ceiling above the bed and a sunken bathtub at the foot of it. There was also a playroom with a water-bed floor, a dining room with an in-floor spa, as well as a swimming pool that extended into the living room.

While many of those risque features have disappeared, a few of the ground-breaking architectural features remain. They include 200 tons of stonework and a 14-foot-high, 2,000-pound front door.

The five-story living room “harmoniously blends a cathedral ceiling, walls of windows, tree-like columns, and Bouquet Canyon stone,” says Mostame.
