Living Like a Legendary Football Hero – Rudy’s Home Is Up for Grabs

Ever wanted to own your very own lavish Tuscan village home?  What about the whole village instead?

While not necessarily a whole village, this newly listed property in Henderson, NV seems like it sure could be, plus it has a little bit of celebrity history to go along with it.

Notre Dame and Football Fans Alike Will Be Wanting To Reside Here

The home, located in the gated community of Anthem Country Club, sits on a two-lot corner, covering over an acre.  Featuring an 8,000-square-foot main home and 2,200-square-foot guest house, there is plenty of room for every member of your family and then some.  While the exterior and interior of the home are glamorous and amazing in themselves, the backyard is where the fun will happen.  With a pool, spa, and bbq area, you will be able to look out at the junior-size full-court basketball court.  It also includes a batting cage area, an in-ground trampoline, and a lighted 10,000-square-foot turf area for soccer and football games.

Who Was The Amazing Celebrity Athlete That Designed This Home?

In 1975, a 5'6", 165-pound young man would be a walk-on for the Notre Dame practice squad.  In that same year, he became a national hero of sorts by being the first person to be carried off the field on the shoulders of other players for the school.  Daniel "Rudy" Ruettiger would only play 3 downs in the final home game, and record one sack in the win.  He went on to become a national motivational speaker and inspire many others to achieve their own dreams, even selling his life story to be made into a 1993 movie starring Sean Astin.

His former home is now for sale at a listing price of $7,000,000.  The listing agency, Berkshire Hathaway Home Services can assist with any questions regarding the property.
