The Sugarloaf home of Andruw Jones, the former Atlanta Braves All Star outfielder, is for sale. The price? About $4.9 million.
According to a listing on the Harry Norman Realtors' website, the house on Grey Moss Pass in the Sugarloaf area of Duluth has nine bedrooms and 12 full baths. Amenities include a batting cage, putting green, and an indoor basketball court.
Andruw Jones, 35, is involved in divorce proceedings with his wife. That case was filed not long after Andruw Jones was charged with battery in connection with a domestic incident early Christmas Day 2012 at the home.
According to real estate site Zillow.com, the house was listed on Feb. 28, 2013.
Jones reportedly has signed to play baseball in Japan this season. Also, he is currently playing for the Netherlands team in the World Baseball Classic.
With a 20 percent down payment of $1 million, the monthly payment would be about $21,600, including taxes and insurance, Zillow estimated. The house was purchased in 2002 for $2.77 million, according to Zillow.
Andruw Jones played for the Braves from 1996-2007. He has a career total of 435 home runs.
According to the Gwinnett Police arrest report, Andruw Jones left "visible" injuries around his wife's neck after the incident early Christmas Day. He consumed "several" alcoholic beverages during a Christmas Eve party at their home, the report says.
The criminal case, a misdemeanor, is still pending in Gwinnett State Court.
