Anyone need a House? Deion Sanders has two on the market in Dallas.

Deion Sanders Selling Two Texas Homes

deion sandersPro Football Hall of Fame-er Deion Sanders must like real estate as much -- or even more than -- football. The former Atlanta Brave and twotime Super Bowl winner had his two Dallas homes on the market during this year's Super Bowl XLV in Arlington, Tex., hoping for a big audience. His agent, Marilyn Hoffman of Hoffman International Properties, sponsored one big NFL pre-Super Bowl party just so she could put her listings, including Deion's, on display.
He may have played for Atlanta, but like any good Texan, Sanders has his city-slicker place, a coolio Dallas penthouse listed for $7.5 million, and a $21 million ranch in Prosper, Tex., about 45 minutes north of Dallas.









The Prosper Ranch:
Deion's 109-acre ranch home boasts 29,122 square feet, has a two-story entry, banquet dining space, and an indoor basketball court and bowling alley. This magnificent home also boasts indoor and outdoor pools, a billiard room, a movie theater, a hall of fame gallery, a football field, a tennis court, a 12-acre lake and a guest house. Just so no one gets cold, there are also five fireplaces throughout, a game room and one car port.

The home is on the market -- still -- for $21 million. The Collin County Appraisal District shows a slightly different value: $5,410,602. Hint: Get the mineral rights.

The Penthouse:

This James Cheng-designed unit is in one of Dallas's first LEED-certified residential condos, the Azure. Sanders has it on the market for $7.5 million. Looks like he bought it lock, stock and barrel, Suite 3002, in 2009. The 5025 square feet include some balcony space. And this is a two-story condo, with a rooftop terrace and lounge with bar and full bath (so nice for guests, keeps your own potty pristine) and a private elevator to it all -- rooftop private pool, roof garden and fireplace. There is also a two-story living room, a terrace lounge that features a bar, an outdoor fireplace and a full bath.
