Celtics owner Wyc Grousbeck’s Martha’s Vineyard home just sold. Take a look inside.
Celtics owner Wyc Grousbeck has sold his Martha’s Vineyard home for $11.75 million.
The property was purchased by Turkeyland Cove Nominee Trust, according to Dukes County land records.
The estate at 29 Turkeyland Cove Road, set on just over 29 private acres beside Edgartown Great Pond, was put on the market in 2015 with a listing price of $22.5 million.
The property had more recently been on the market for $14.8 million, according to its listing on Christie’s. The 7-bedroom, 8.5-bath home features almost 7,000 square feet in the residence, with a “modern Chef’s kitchen, vaulted ceilings, and two guest wings.”
“The long and winding driveway, sprawling lawn and incredible water views make for the perfect family compound setting for generations to come,” the listing reads.
Former President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle, rented the home in August for their annual summer getaway. The family retreated to the Massachusetts island each summer during Obama’s presidency, except in 2012 when the former commander-in-chief was running for re-election.
It’s been reported for years that the Obamas were seeking to buy a home on Martha’s Vineyard, although in 2017, a spokesman for the family denied the former first couple were house hunting on the island. In August, TMZ reported the Obamas were purchasing Grousbeck’s estate on Turkeyland Cove Road.
Representatives for the trust that purchased the property did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Wednesday.
