Big Z Purchases Big House

zambranohouse.jpgSince we are talking about who you would choose to be today in another post......Remember that 5 year/$91.5 million contract Carlos Zambrano signed during the season? Well, it looks like he found a way to spend some of that money

List Price: $2.8 million
Sale Price: $2.66 million
The Property: Come spring’s return of the Cubs to Wrigley Field, pitcher Carlos Zambrano will be calling this 13-room, vaguely Prairie-style house his seasonal home. On January 18th, Zambrano closed on his purchase of the three-year-old house, which has six bedrooms, four full and three partial baths, and two fireplaces. Set in Chicago’s Lake View neighborhood on a block that was, until six years ago, industrial property, the 6,700-square-foot house stands on an extra-wide lot: 37.5 feet (the standard city lot is 25 feet wide). The house was designed by the architecture firm Pappageorge/Haymes and built by Patrick Landrosh.  It has 12-foot-high ceilings, Brazilian cherry floors, and a combined, 650-square-foot kitchen and great room.

The life of an elite MLB pitcher is pretty rough, no?

I think Mr. Santana is going to be purchasing himself a nice new house in New York once he gets his new contract. Poor Twins Fans.

Yeah, but with the property taxes and cost of living in NY....yeah, it's not going to matter much. $20 mil a year is nice if you can get it

Where is his house located at?
