New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and his supermodel wife, Gisele Bundchen, are reportedly house shopping in Greenwich, but whether this will be for their forever home or another property in their skein of house flipping is uncertain.
Last week, the New York Post reported they were on the hunt for new property in Greenwich, with unnamed sources insisting “they have been looking at gracious homes with lots of room for their kids to play and dogs to roam.” Brady and Bundchen are also reportedly looking across the Hudson River in the exclusive enclave of Alpine, N.J., which is home to presidential adviser Kellyanne Conway and comics Chris Rock and Tracey Morgan.
But whether Brady and Bundchen will settle down in Greenwich is unclear, considering they have a history of buying luxury properties and reselling them at higher values: the 2012 sale of a Back Bay Boston condo for $9.2 million (the 2006 purchase price was $6.2 million), the 2018 sale of their One Madison Tower condo in Manhattan for just under $14 million (the 2014 purchase price was $11.7 million) and their 4-acre property parcel in Brentwood, California, which they bought in 2008 for $11.75 million and used to build a 18,000-square-foot mansion they sold to rapper and music executive Dr. Dre in 2014 for $40 million.
Brady and Bundchen divide their time between two residences: a condo in the Tribeca section of Manhattan they bought in 2016 for $25.5 million and a custom-designed 14,000-square-foot mansion in Brookline, Massachusetts, on a 5.2-acre parcel purchased from Pine Manor College in 2013.
