Ace of a Place: Retired Tennis Great Ivan Lendl Lists $900K Florida Home

Game, set, and match: Former tennis star Ivan Lendl has put his Bradenton, FL, home on the market for $900,000.

The 3,027-square-foot, four-bedroom residence sits on more than a quarter-acre.

Centrally located yet private, this home is a quick drive from the IMG Sports Academy and Golf Club (great for athletes) and the State College of Florida Bradenton.

Bright and airy

Close to Anna Maria Island’s beautiful beaches, the house was built in 1989 and offers an abundance of luxurious details.

The home opens to a large living room with sliding glass doors that lead out to a pristine pool. The room’s tiled floors and soaring ceiling create a bright, airy feel.

Get cookin’

The chef’s kitchen is outfitted with top-notch appliances, an oversized center island, and a curved countertop. Solid wood cabinets with ample storage, plus room for a full-sized dining table round out the space.

The kitchen seamlessly blends into the den, which boasts a fireplace and another set of sliding glass doors that open to the pool area.

Sweet en suite details

Further inside, you’ll find four spacious bedrooms with large windows, high sloped ceilings, and en suite bathrooms. The primary suite features dual vanities, a large walk-in closet, a tub, and stand-up shower.

There’s also an extra room that could be transformed into a home office or gym.

Relax and recharge

The outdoor area offers multiple patio spaces, plus a shower. And a hot tub provides a great place to luxuriate after a long day.

A meticulously landscaped garden and attached two-car garage seal the deal.

Lendl, 63, is a Czech-American, former professional tennis player. He is considered one of the greatest of all time and won eight Grand Slam championships over the course of his career. His Florida home is a relatively modest part of his property portfolio. Lendl still owns a Connecticut estate that he had on the market in 2016 for $19.8 million.
