With a golf swing that’s made him a global superstar, McIlroy’s off-course indulgences are impressive. Be it cars, or real estate, McIlroy knows how to spend his hard-earned money. Interestingly, the 35-year-old reportedly owns three mansions and two apartments.

Starting with Rory McIlroy’s primary residence, a breathtaking Jupiter, Florida, mansion, showcases his taste for luxury. The 13,000-square-foot estate, built in 2002, boasts lavish features and sleek designs. With pristine golf course views and a resort-style pool, every detail exudes relaxation. Some luxury amenities include an infinity pool, a games room, a tennis court, a home theater, a recording studio, and a state-of-the-art gym.

He acquired this stunning property for $11 million in 2012, as per Bunkered. Previously owned by golf legend Ernie Els, the estate solidifies McIlroy’s status among the golfing elite. Additionally, the Jupiter location places him among esteemed neighbors, including Michael Jordan and Serena Williams. Following its purchase, McIlroy and his wife, Erica Stoll, invested years renovating the estate. 

Now, it is valued at over $20 million, showcasing its exquisite taste. But Jupiter’s not the only hotspot in his property portfolio. This estate is located in The Bear’s Club and it helped McIlroy gain access to the exclusive club, which opened in 1999 after being proposed by Jack Nicklaus. 

Consequently, beyond his Jupiter mansion, Rory McIlroy’s property collection spans the globe, reflecting his love for luxury and strategic investments. On the West Coast, he owns a stunning mansion in La Quinta, California, purchased for $12.3 million in 2019. Nestled amidst the desert landscape, this six-bedroom, nine-bathroom haven offers a mesmerizing sight of the Santa Rosa mountains.
