Just imagine waking up where the Mamba used to live. That chance is once again up for grabs, Kobe Bryant’s former Irvine, California, home is back on the market for $2.6 million. Vanessa listed the home for $1.995 million on Oct. 27, 2020. Only two days later, someone purchased the home for $2 million, according to the Los Angeles Times. Now it’s back on the market, with some upgrades.

Via LA Times:

Less than six months after Vanessa Bryant sold the home for $2 million, it’s back on the market for $2.6 million.

The listing claims that nearly $200,000 went toward remodeling the Tuscan-style abode, which covers 2,400 square feet in the Summit at Turtle Ridge, a gated community found a few miles from Bryant’s longtime mansion in Newport Coast. Kobe and Vanessa bought the Irvine home as an investment property for $1.3 million in 2013, records show.

The exterior looks about the same as it did when Vanessa sold it last year with a clay tile roof and brick façade. Ivy tops the garage, and a gated courtyard approaches the single-story floor plan.

For that price there has to be a Kobe fanatic out there that wants to scoop up the property.  I mean people pay that much for trading cards.

Joele Romeo and Matt Marneau of Pacific Sotheby’s International Realty hold the listing.
