MLB Great Jimmy Rollins Swings for a $11.75M Sale on His Encino Mansion

Jimmy Rollins is tossing his 11,000-square-foot Encino, CA, mansion onto the market for $11.75 million.

The baseball legend is listing the nine-bedroom, 11-bath luxury abode that he purchased brand-new four years ago for $8.7 million. This mansion, his second in Encino, is quite the catch.

It’s located in the double-gated, luxe Royal Oaks community, where other celebs such as Kelly Clarkson, Joe Jonas, and Sophie Turner have called home.

Ultramodern mansion

The three-story, ultramodern mansion shimmers with walls of glass, soaring ceilings, and what seems like acres of elegant hardwood finishes.

The great room, punctuated by a striking, double-sided fireplace, has disappearing walls of glass, which allow for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining.

The kitchen is also an entertainer’s fantasy, with its triple ovens and refrigerators, plus double dishwashers and islands. In addition, it features a cozy breakfast nook with a banquette.

The party can extend outdoors, where there are grassy lawns, terraces, lounges, a children’s play yard, a covered dining area, a kitchen, and a zero-edge pool and spa.

And for those invitees who never want to go home, there’s a two-bedroom, 2.5-bath guesthouse just across the pool.

The owners can keep their distance, if they wish, in a lavish primary suite with its own fireplace, private terrace, spa bathroom, and ample closet space.

Other luxury amenities include an elevator, a glass-walled wine room, a plush home theater, and a roof-top deck.

Enticed by Encino

J-Roll set a record when he paid $10.65 million in 2017 for a 15,000-square-foot mansion in this posh San Fernando Valley enclave. That was the highest price ever paid in Encino at the time. He sold it two years later at a slight discount, for $10.55 million, in an off-market deal, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Rollins, 43, played for the Philadelphia Phillies (2000–14), Los Angeles Dodgers (2015), and Chicago White Sox (2016). With the Phillies, he won a World Series title, became a National League MVP, and holds team records for hits and stolen bases.

Carl Gambino and Jacob Greenberg of Compass represent the listing.
