World Series Champ Jason Heyward Selling His Atlanta Mansion

Four-time Golden Glove outfielder Jason Heyward just won a World Series with the Chicago Cubs, but he has unfinished business in the city where he made his big-league debut.

His Craftsman-style home in Atlanta just hit the market for $3.25 million.

If there’s any Champagne left over from the celebrations in the Windy City, there’s room enough in this 7,777-square-foot home to keep the party rolling. The lucky 7’s in the square footage are intentional—the distinctive mansion includes seven bedrooms, seven fireplaces, and 7.5 baths.

And, no, Heyward doesn’t wear the number 7 on the field—the slugger has worn #22 at all three of his MLB stops.

The 2-year-old home has on-trend decorative touches, including shiplap and exposed brick walls. It’s fully automated and ready for a buyer who likes a blend of classic styling and cutting-edge technology.

As luxurious as the entire home is, the master suite is truly a place you’d want to slide safely into. It has a sitting room (which has one of the seven fireplaces), as well as an extravagant master bath with a huge shower and whirlpool tub.

Heyward, an Atlanta native, was drafted by his hometown Braves in 2007 and reached the big leagues in 2010. He spent seven years with the Braves before being traded to the Cardinals in 2015.

Before the 2016 season, the defensive dynamo signed an eight-year, $184 million deal with the Cubs. He struggled at the plate throughout the postseason, but his inspirational clubhouse speech during a rain delay in Game 7 is credited with fueling the Cubbies to their first World Series win in 108 years.
