Lebron James Coral Gables Mansion

Where is Lebron James new home in Miami? - UPDATE August 4th - NOT in Coral Gables - Potamkin says he has had not contact with Lebron James, is not selling his Coral Gables home to Lebron James or anyone, and that it is in fact OFF the market.

"King of the castle...king of the castle." I wonder if LeBron will walk in to his sprawling new mansion in Miami and say the same phrase made famous in the movie Borat. LeBron has begun paperwork on buying the most expensive mansion in Coral Gables, Florida. Several years ago Pat Riley called it home and he may have advised James to take a look at it.

The estate, located on 11 Casuarina Concourse, is being sold by auto dealership owner Alan Potamkin. Built in 2000, the two story, 20,862 square foot home contains eight bedrooms, 11 full baths, and sits on a 3.6-acre property in Gables Estates.

James' new home will offer much more privacy than the mansions he could have selected on or near Miami Beach. It is surrounded by 880 feet of waterfront and has a perfect view of Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline. He can literally take his boat to the Miami Airlines Arena dock! (yes they have one)

Amenities include a 150-ft. dock, a lighted tennis court, and an adjacent private guest suite. There is also an "elevator, bar, master suite with a full gym, a billiard and media room, and a four or more car garage."

"In addition to these particulars, there is Lutron lighting and a 12-camera security system throughout the estate."

Needless to say MTV may want to consider bringing back the show "MTV Cribs" in order to give people a tour of LeBron's new humble abode.
