I had featured this home a while back in a post titled “Guess the mansion’s square footage”. Looking from the exterior, the home doesn’t look that large. It includes 10 bedrooms, 15 bathrooms, gated guard house, formal dining and living rooms, kitchen, Italian marble floors, office, elevator, 2 master suites, gym, a huge Olympic-sized indoor swimming pool, and a 4-car garage. It is listed at $4,000,000 or you can rent it for $25,000/month. What do you guys think?

Hi, my name is Alan Robinson, and I’m guest blogging today.

This is the newly built mega-home of NBA superstar LeBron James. The pictures don’t show the home finished yet. The address is 4157 Idlebrook Drive, Akron, Ohio. He bought the property and tore down the home that had been there. He started building his dream home, and it was just recently finished. According to articles online, his home is 35,440 square feet, but public records list the home at 30,106. Either way, that is one of the largest ever built in Ohio.

- Here is an excerpt on the home:

A lavish residence in Ligonier Township, allegedly built with funds siphoned from investors and banks by officials of the now-bankrupt LeNature’s Inc. bottling plant in Latrobe, is up for sale at an asking price of $2.5 million.

Howard Hanna Real Estate of Ligonier has listed the unfinished mansion at $2.5 million, which requires a $500,000 down payment, according to the listing. The 24,000-square-foot home has six bedrooms, five bathrooms, eight half-baths, seven fireplaces that cost $70,000, and $3 million worth of millwork, according to Westmoreland County court records.

The structure is located off Route 711 in the Loyalhanna Plan.

The building was supposed to be a “training center” for LeNature’s employees, according to former LeNature’s CEO Gregory Podlucky, but court documents and architectural drawings indicate it was designed to be a home for Podlucky; his wife, Karla; and three children.

Podlucky, 49, was indicted in September by a federal grand jury on tax charges, and wire, bank and mail fraud, in connection with an alleged $806 million scheme to defraud investors.
