Take a tour of Folsom home recently sold by Sacramento Kings player De’Aaron Fox
Sacramento Kings point guard De’Aaron Fox has sold his custom-built estate in Folsom for just over $1.7 million, the highest selling price in the city in 15 years, according to Keller Williams real estate firm.
Kelly Pleasant of Keller Williams Sacramento Real Estate listed the mansion in the Broadstone neighborhood for $1.7 million on July 10, 2020. After reviewing multiple offers, the property went into contract just four days later, a Keller Williams representative said. The final selling price was $1.705 million.
This is the highest selling listing in Folsom since 2005, according to MetroList Service. In 2005, a property closed for $1.749 million. There was a closing in July for $1.7 million, but Folsom has seen only six sales ever above $1.5 million.
The five-bedroom, four-bath home, 527 Serpa Way, spans 5,103 square feet over three floors and features sweeping views of Sacramento from the backyard. Built in 2019, the residence has 20-foot ceilings, two balconies and a home theater that sits eight people.
“Folsom offers a beautiful option for the discreet buyer who wants a family-oriented, growing town with easy access to the city of Sacramento, the Bay Area, Lake Tahoe and Napa,” Pleasant said in a news release. “The greater Sacramento region is a fantastic choice for upscale home owners.”
Pleasant could not be reached for further comment.
The master suite has 12-foot ceilings with backyard access and a fireplace. Downstairs, there are three more bedrooms, two full baths, a den, family room and second laundry room. The home has panoramic views that stretch from Folsom to Sacramento.
The sloping backyard boasts a pool and spa, built-in fire pit and fully landscaped grounds with a dog run.
Fox, 22, bought the home for $1.59 million in 2019, according to public records.
Fox averaged 21.1 points, 6.8 assists and 1.5 steals this season. He has one year remaining on the four-year, $24.5 million rookie contract he signed after the Kings chose him out of Kentucky with the fifth pick in the 2017 NBA Draft.
