Former Super Bowl MVP lists Houston-area pad for $2M

A Houston native and former Super Bowl MVP recently listed his Cypress home for $2.1 million.

Hines Ward put his home at 19114 Caney Creek Mills on the market. The price for the 5,600-square-foot home comes to almost $377 per square foot. Rene Rodriguez of Nan and Company Properties has the listing.

Located in the Towne Lake subdivision and built in 2022, it has five bedrooms and five full bathrooms, plus a half bath. Features include a putting green, outdoor kitchen, pool and jacuzzi. The home is valued at almost $1.6 million by the Harris Central Appraisal District. Ward is its first owner.

Nan and Co. launched a sports division a year ago, starting with listings for former Houston Astros player Yuli Gurriel and former Rockets player Garrison Matthews.

Ward, 48, played for the Pittsburgh Steelers for his entire career, from 1998 to 2011, and he played in two Super Bowl games, in 2005 (when he was the MVP) and 2009. Hines started his coaching career with the Steelers in 2017. He was head coach of the San Antonio Brahmas of the XFL from 2022 to 2023, and this year was hired as the wide receivers coach by the Arizona State University Sun Devils.

Houston’s luxury home market, defined as homes priced at $1 million or more, is on the upswing. Sales in that price range increased 48 percent year-over-year in February, according to the Houston Association of Realtors. Nan and Co.’s Nancy Almodovar represented the buyer in the market’s second-priciest on-market home sale ever in March, a River Oaks mansion once owned by Hines founder Gerald D. Hines and listed at $20 million.

Eight-figure home sales are becoming more common in Texas. At least two homes sold for over $10 million in Houston last year.
