As a player and manager, baseball’s Ozzie Guillen was known for his passion for the game and an uncensored tongue. Now he’s looking to get back into the game after a six-year break from the dugout.

Whatever your opinion of his managing style may be, there’s one thing that’s undisputed: Guillen’s top-notch Chicago home.

The three-time All-Star has now put his sleek four-story house on the market for $2.5 million.

The ultramodern residence is a gem in a city where securing luxe real estate is as competitive as the World Series.

This house is also a heavy hitter when it comes to fun and entertainment. A media room, complete with a glowing, starry night sky in the ceiling, seats eight.

There’s also an ample atrium designed for the ultimate house party. And on the rooftop? A little putting green to practice your touch.

What’s more, there’s a four-car garage, which is definitely unique for Chicago. While Guillen’s return to baseball is up in the air, we’re sure of one thing: This house is a no-hitter, and its next owner is in for a treat.

Guillen, 55, ably manned the shortstop position for 16 seasons in the big leagues, most of them with the Chicago White Sox. He returned to the South Side shortly after his playing days were done as the manager of the White Sox. He managed the team for eight seasons, and memorably led them to a World Series win in 2005.
