A sprawling Maryland mansion that was once home to former Washington Wizards star Bradley Beal has been yanked off the market—just under a year after it was listed for $11 million.
Beal, 32, who is known to his fans as “Big Panda,” purchased the extraordinary property—which comes complete with an underground basketball court—for $7.8 million in 2019, seven years after he joined the Wizards.
The property likely holds many emotional ties for Beal, who purchased the dwelling the same month that he welcomed his second son with wife Kamiah Adams—while their third boy was born while they were living at the dwelling.
Beal and Adams even did a gender reveal ahead of the birth of their third child in front of the property’s stunning outdoor sports court, a moment that the latter later shared on her YouTube account.
However, in 2023, the Washington, DC-based team, which will have the first pick at the 2026 NBA Draft when it kicks off on June 23 at 8 p.m., traded Beal to the Phoenix Suns, prompting him to quietly sell his opulent Bethesda, MD, abode for $9.2 million in November of that same year.
Less than two years later, the property, which was built in 2016, returned to the market in September 2025 with a much higher asking price of $11 million.
At the time, real estate agent Robert Hryniewicki of HRLS Partners at TTR Sotheby’s International Realty, who co-listed the property with Adam Rackliffe, Christopher Leary, and Micah Smith, touted its most impressive feature: the one-of-a-kind underground basketball court, which he noted was unlike anything he’d ever seen.
“Oftentimes, homes have a half-basketball court, but this one is full-size,” he told Realtor.com®. “Bradley Beal lived there from when the home was built until 2023 when the sellers purchased it.”
However, even with the property’s oh-so special amenities and its impressive ties to the NBA star, it struggled to make its mark on the local housing market, with records showing that it underwent multiple price reductions—dropping to a low of $9.99 million in February—before it was delisted altogether just a few weeks ago.
It’s unclear whether the sellers have now changed their minds about offloading the home or if they are planning to wait until the NBA season starts up again, perhaps helping them to capitalize on Beal’s renewed public profile as he returns to the court with the Los Angeles Clippers, whom he signed with in 2025.
Certainly, the home would be perfectly suited to another sporting superstar, offering a wealth of wellness- and fitness-focused amenities that expand well beyond the indoor basketball court.
“There is also a hot tub, swimming pool, cabana, and green space to play soccer or other outdoor sports,” Hryniewicki previously stated.
“One of the key highlights is the indoor/outdoor programming that the house affords. It is on a flat, level parcel, which is very unique and hard to find. It’s also super private, surrounded by mature landscaping.”
Designed by GTM Architects, the 13,448-square-foot interior boasts custom millwork, designer lighting, high ceilings, and oversized windows. After the current owners purchased the property from Beal, they then poured another $1 million into renovating it and turning it into their dream abode.
“Everything on the inside has recently been updated and renovated, and is as luxurious as possible,” he added. “The owners have invested $1 million since purchasing it in 2023. It has the widest-scale appeal because it was built for entertaining but doesn’t live too large for everyday family living.”
Located in the Avenel Community, the four-level residence has an elevator for easy access to each floor. The grand foyer opens up to formal dining and living rooms. A two-sided gas fireplace is shared between the living room and study.
The gourmet chef’s kitchen has custom cabinetry, marble countertops, and an oversized island with prep sink and breakfast bar. A family room with tray ceilings has a built-in wet bar and separate wine bar with pantry designed for entertaining.
“I think the next person will be a high-net-worth individual, who will likely use it as a primary residence,” Hryniewicki noted. “Someone might also want to buy it as an entertainment or trophy property.”
Upstairs, a lavish primary suite boasts an opulent bathroom with soaking tub, enormous glass-stall shower, and two separate vanities. The stunning sanctuary also has dual boutique-inspired, walk-in closets, and two sets of French doors that open up to a private terrace overlooking the landscaped lot.
The lower-level “entertainer’s dream” features a recreation room with wet bar, fitness center, guest suite, extra storage space, and access to the dedicated indoor full-sized basketball court.
Outside, the resort-style backyard also features a covered patio and firepit.
“The home’s address is Bethesda, which is one of the first suburbs outside of Washington, DC,” he explained. “It is also five minutes away from Congressional Country Club. It’s a true oasis, yet you are just 15 minutes away from being in the city.”
