The Italian villa-style mansion he bought features a two-story entry, hand-carved wood details, four fireplaces, an elevator and a six-car garage. There are seven bedrooms, 8.5 bathrooms and 11,500 square feet of living space.

The more than half-acre site contains a swimming pool, a spa and lawn.

The ranch-style home he has for sale includes vaulted ceilings, a family room with a wet bar, an exercise room/office, five bedrooms, six bathrooms and 4,381 square feet of living space. The more than an acre lot has a swimming pool and a tennis court.
