Rumor: LeBron James Makes Offer on $49.5M Gables Estates Home

July 7, 2010

Rumors swirled earlier this afternoon that LeBron James had made an offer on a $40M waterfront home in Coral Gables.  My sources tell me that the offer was made on a 20,862 square foot mansion located at 11 Casuarina Concourse in the Gables Estates neighborhood of Coral Gables.  The 8 bedroom/11 bath/2 half bath palace sits on a 3.6 acre lot with 880 feet of water frontage and comes with a dock to accommodate a 150-foot yacht.  The Miami luxury home was previously listed for $49.5M before the listing expired on May 31, 2010.  The Gables Estates waterfront home, which was purchased in July 1987 for 2,018,000,  is currently owned by luxury auto dealer Alan Potamkin of Potamkin Auto Gallery.
