Longtime Houston Rockets owner Leslie Alexander has finally sold his La Jolla beach house for $16 million after nearly a decade of relists.
Walls of glass line nearly every living space, bringing ocean views into the dining room, chef’s kitchen and sky-lit great room. Another highlight comes in the game room with its two fireplaces, a wine cooler and wet bar.
The primary suite spans an entire floor, boasting a private deck, spa bathroom and a chute that runs from the closet to the laundry room. It’s one of four bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms in 9,320 square feet. Alexander bought the Rockets for $85 million in 1993, and the team won back-to-back NBA championships during the next two seasons led by star center Hakeem Olajuwon. In 2017, he sold the franchise to fellow billionaire Tilman Fertitta for $2.2 billion.
Greg Noonan and Maxine Gellens of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties held the listing. Jana Greene of Pacific Sotheby’s International Realty represented the buyer.
