An ex-NFL wide receiver known for shining brightly on football’s biggest stage hopes a buyer will be sparked into buying his home in Chester, NJ.

Santonio Holmes, who rose to football stardom with the Pittsburgh Steelers, has listed a two-level townhouse with a price tag of $749,000. Records show he bought it for $760,000 in 2013.

Don’t be fooled by the price—this home may not fit the typical baller stereotype, but the four-bedroom, five-bath spread doesn’t lack in amenities.

The 3,241-square-foot home features large entertainment spaces, extensive millwork, and a luxurious chef’s kitchen with a center island, double Sub-Zero refrigerators, and brand-new granite countertops.

The kitchen opens to a large family room with fireplace, a wood-paneled library (with yet another fireplace), a formal dining room, and a wet bar complete with a wine refrigerator plus ice maker.

The lower level houses the bedrooms and a recreation room equipped with a wet bar, an exercise room, and additional storage areas. A second-floor loft overlooks the family room.

Holmes began his property shuffle in January when he listed a home in Palm Beach County, FL, for $520,000. Set on an acre lot, the property features four bedrooms and three baths, plus plenty of amenities made for entertaining, including a media room, screened-in pool, and large porch. There’s also a two-bedroom, two-bath guesthouse for friends and family.

Holmes is best known for his performance in Super Bowl XLIII, when he led the Steelers to a record sixth championship in a win over the Arizona Cardinals. He caught nine passes for 131 yards and the game-winning touchdown with less than a minute left in regulation.

In 2010, he was traded to the New York Jets. He played for the Jets for four seasons before signing a one-year deal with the Chicago Bears in 2014, his final season.
