 What a multi-million dollar Thanksgiving purchase! This luxurious 6,400 square-foot newly built estate in Paradise Valley is an entertainer’s dream. And now, sports celeb Eric Chavez  will be enjoying the five-bedroom home and sprawling property with mountain views.  He just bought it for $2,477,500.

 Inside, this abode built in 2014, there’s a large game/media room, an opulent formal dining room and  centralized kitchen overlooking the family room with mountain views.

There’s outdoor/inside living with a heated pool and spa along with an amazing entertaining space ready for an outdoor kitchen. Not to mention the 4 car garage and 5 1/2 baths. 

The third baseman’s new home also boasts a wonderful executive study, wet bar, wine cellar, 14' coffered ceilings and the perfect chef's kitchen complete with Sub Zero  and Wolf appliances. 

Happy Thanksgiving Eric!
