Derek Jeter put his Greenwood lake property on the market in 2018 but was unable to find any buyers. The castle-like property has a number of different features. According to thrilist.com, it includes “a main house, a guest house, and a pool house, in addition to all the extensive gardens, the lagoon, and even a boat house”. Furthermore, it is a 6-bedroom, 12-bathroom mansion that has four indoor kitchens and one outdoor kitchen with a fireplace.
But despite all these features and more, Jeter has been unable to sell the house. In fact, the house will be put up for auction with a minimum price of $6.5 million. This is a huge drop off from the original reported asking price of $14.75 million in 2018.
