Seeing green: Aaron Rodgers buys Montclair mansion

As superstar quarterback Aaron Rodgers enters his first season with the New York Jets, he’s found the ideal place to R-E-L-A-X.

Rodgers purchased a mansion in ritzy Montclair, New Jersey, the Daily Mail reported. The $9.5 million sale took place towards the end of June, but the identity of the buyer had been kept under wraps and remains unconfirmed by the athlete himself.

The quarterback arguably scored a deal for the home at 349 Crestmont Road, straddling the line with Cedar Grove; the new build was put on the market for $11 million in May, according to a property history on Zillow. The contract was signed within three weeks of that listing.

Joan Barrett of Stanton Realtors held the listing. The brokerage did not respond to a request for comment from The Real Deal.

Exact square footage for the property was not publicly available, but the New York Post pinned the main home at greater than 4,000 square feet. The property as a whole spans more than two acres and was purchased through a limited liability company, the publication added.

The mansion includes eight bedrooms and ten bathrooms. There are panoramic views of the New York City skyline and a bevy of luxury features. The main bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and walk-in dressing room. There’s also a gourmet kitchen, home office, media room, gym, wine cellar and three-car carriage.

Maybe most importantly, the home is only a 20-minute drive from MetLife Stadium, where the Jets play their home games.

The four-time NFL MVP and one-time Super Bowl champion owns a $28 million property in Malibu, California, as well as homes in Chico, California, Texas and Tennessee. He also still owns a three-and-a-half acre property in Wisconsin, though he has yet to list the home close to the franchise where he’s played his entire career to this point, the Green Bay Packers.
