There’s no place better than home for Simone Biles!
The 27-year-old superstar gymnast revealed she was finally home on Monday, August 12 after an incredible run at the 2024 Paris Olympics, which saw her take home three gold medals and one silver.
In Texas, she can return to another passion project: building the waterfront mansion she was building with her NFL star husband Jonathan Owens. The couple married in April 2023 and began documenting the progress of their newly built home on social media in September 2023.
Since then, Biles has given her Instagram followers many sneak peeks at design details and stunning views of their dream home — as well as some construction drama along the way.

So far, the award-winning athlete has shown off the geometric designs that adorn some of the walls and floors in her home, as well as the white cabinets and stunning marble countertops in her kitchen.
The house also boasts a wooden staircase with black details on the banisters, while another room has black and white tiles lining the walls.

She also offered a view of her “favorite view” from the large sliding glass doors that open to what appears to be a back patio. In the video, it appears that the house is located right next to the water surface and is surrounded by lush greenery.

Biles has also been transparent about the ups and downs of her home building journey, including when she suffered a mild setback in November 2023.
“Yesterday I was here from 11am to 5pm…..🥴. I thought it was going to be a 30 minute thing, even though I had no idea what I was getting into,” she shared in a video uploaded to her Instagram Stories just in time.

“Yesterday I called my dad for help before I panicked! but I’ve made so much progress and I’m so proud of myself. Jonathan will deal with the bottom line oops……..I hope I did it politely and thought of everything stuff,” she added in another update.
