IT comes with plenty of overheads, but Venus Williams needs no spin to sell her £2.1m Florida mansion.
The tennis legend originally shared the 8,500-square-foot home with sister Serena after paying “just” £415k for it in 1988.
Admirers of the six-bedroom, seven-bathroom property might think they can play hard ball and drive the asking price below the £2m mark.
But five-time Wimbledon Venus, 38, can afford to be patient – as her revival on the court last year took her net worth to around £75m.
Williams has also put a lot of love into the two-storey house after spending two years building it.
Serena, 37, a 23-time Grand Slam champion, then moved out to live nearby.
So strong connections will remain around the Palm Beach County area for two of the greatest siblings in sporting history, who were born and bred in California.
Venus’ mansion is on the BallenIsles Country Club, an exclusive (of course) gated golf community.
An open floor plan inside the Palm Beach Gardens home boasts soaring high ceilings with windows all the way up to the top.
The main living rooms are also well above par, featuring marble floors.
