Super Bowl-Bound Christian McCaffrey Lists $12.5M North Carolina Home Ahead of Big Game

Christian McCaffrey is saying goodbye to his North Carolina home, which the 49ers running back listed days before the Super Bowl — and more than a year after the Carolina Panthers traded him to San Francisco.

The 11,831-square-foot home has six bedrooms, a one-bedroom guest house above a three-car garage, and plenty of features that could entice buyers — from a basement gym to a boat (named after McCaffrey’s fiancee Olivia Culpo), a Wildcat SUV, a jet ski and a golf course. stroller that is also included in the sale.

The house was listed by Victoria Speer from the Charlotte agency.

His home, Grand Lac Chateau, was “inspired by the allure of the French countryside” and was created by JJ Barja of Elite Design Group in 2015, according to a statement, which said it is still “the highest-priced property ever sold in the esteemed Charlotte Region’s Canopy MLS System.”
