San Antonio Spurs Legend Tony Parker Lists Boerne Estate That Features Its Own Water Park
The sprawling and splashy custom estate of the NBA Hall of Famer is now on the market for $16.5 million
Wake up and walk out to views of the rolling hills of Boerne, Texas, then fly down one of the various park-quality water slides into your massive pool in the former home of San Antonio Spurs legend Tony Parker.
Far from the typical McMansion that looks stylistically like a child’s drawing come to life, this Spanish-Revival Hill Country palace brings a mature sense to the concept of a fantasy home. Ten bedrooms, eight full baths, and four half baths give a new meaning to personal space, while the layout of common spaces maintains a sense of intimacy. The two-story windows in the living room bring in natural light through the curved window bows to shine on the light stone fireplace on those rare chilly winter days. The kitchen hosts chef-quality appliances, while the cavernous wine room is any vino aficionado’s dream.
Dive into your own private water park at this Boerne estate
The impressive show stopper can be found outside. Elevating the retreat into a resort, the poolscape is far beyond the typical slide and grotto set up of other estates. This is a bonafide water park in the backyard, complete with a lazy river winding through an artificial rock formation housing multiple grottos, tiered pools, speed and body slides, multiple waterfalls of varying height, and an actual bowl slide. Slip through the rock work and spiral around the bowl of the slide before being dropped into the rest of the pool network that makes up this personal aquatic playland. There’s so much to explore. It’s simply something out of a dream.
The rest of the grounds of this Boerne estate are also stunning. You’ll find a greenhouse, fruit orchard, and herb garden for the green-thumbed, a tortoise enclosure for those looking to slow down, and an elite 5,922 sq ft gym for those who move fast.
In essence, 9 Rue Parker is the epitome of living the dream, and that dream is for sale for the right price through Kuper Sotheby’s International Realty by Binkan Cinaroglu.
