BLOOMFIELD HILLS, MI - Matthew and Kelly Stafford will be leaving Michigan soon as both the Lions and their quarterback of the last 12 seasons mutually agreed to part ways. Now, the Stafford’s ritzy mansion is back on the market, listed for $6.5 million.
The 12,000-square-foot estate is located at 1867 Long Pointe Drive in Bloomfield Hills with more than 400 feet of frontage along Upper Long Lake. The Staffords, who have four young kids, originally listed the home for the same price last summer because they wanted to find a place with less water. Here’s what Kelly said at that time.
“We’re about to have our fourth child and I personally do not want to live on a lake or have a pool with four children under the age of a little over 3. That house has been incredible. We’ll never have a house like it. So it is a super sad thing, but it just makes us feel better knowing that there’s no real dangers of having tiny ones running around all the bodies of water.”
The Stafford’s realtor tells MLive they took the home off the market because did not want to move during the football season.
“We had been looking for homes in the area, but now obviously circumstances have changed so we relisted the home,” Jeff Barker, associate broker at Max Broock Realtors told us. “I’ve been their realtor and friend for 11 years and am sad to see them leave.”
The five-bedroom, seven-bathroom home has a larger infinity pool than any other home in all of Michigan, according to the manufacturer. It comes complete with a cascading waterfall over the side.
Another feature you won’t find anywhere else than this house, which was built in 1980, is the indoor half basketball court. But it’s not just any court. The floor is the original court the Detroit Pistons played on when they were at the Pontiac Silverdome. This court was already inside the home when the Staffords purchased it.
The kitchen has two islands with counter-top seating. Then, there’s the dining room with a glass floor in the which looks into the more than 600-bottle, temperature-controlled wine cellar below. And when you’re in the wine cellar, you can see above into the dining area.
“This home is in pristine condition. It’s an entertainer’s dream. It has anything anyone could possibly want in today’s world. It’s probably one of the nicest homes in the country, not just in Michigan. It’s really a spectacular residence,” added Baker.
The Staffords remodeled the home in 2016 and added more than 2,000 square feet to it. The interior now features polished granite floors throughout, along with new cabinetry. There are five fireplaces, a glass elevator which services all three floors and a giant man cave, which you can see in the photo gallery above with the pool table.
The first-floor master suite now features a marble bathroom. There’s also an entertainment area in the bedroom with a TV on the wall and a coffee bar. Two of the other four bedrooms have balconies the Staffords added in the remodel.
Down in the walkout lower level there’s a sauna and steam room along with a room with two side-by-side tubs. To get to the home you must drive through an iron gate. There’s a three-car garage with mirrored doors to reflect the scenery. There’s a brick paver driveway, limestone exterior, granite front porch and a two-story foyer.
Here is the listing to the home from Max Broock Realtors of Birmingham. You can contact the realtor if you are an interested buyer.
