Prepping for his big Miami move, former Buffalo Bills defensive end Mario Williams listed his $3 million, five-bedroom mansion in Aurora, NY.

After four seasons with the Bills, the sack specialist signed a two-year contract with the Dolphins in March. The four-time Pro Bowl selection spent his first five years in the league with the Houston Texans, who made him the top pick in the 2006 NFL Draft.

His 13,189-square-foot home may have been built in 2005, but its grand interiors and elegant accents make the space feel like it’s plucked from the Gatsby days. If the curb appeal—a circular driveway with an enormous fountain—doesn’t wow you, the foyer’s winding, chandelier-topped marble staircase surely will.

Big readers should avoid touring the house, otherwise they risk never leaving the two-story, wood-paneled library, the perfect encapsulation of what a library should look like: warm, cozy, and a bit intimidating.

“The pictures don’t do it justice, but it’s just magnificent,” says listing agent Michelle Winer of Hunt Real Estate.

With more than 5 acres, the property offers plenty of hidden spots to curl up with a good book and a glass of wine—or toss around a football on the lawn. Bros will love the curvaceous downstairs bar, which is located in an enormous entertainment space with room for foosball, billiards, or just a good, old raucous party.
