Records show the Currys paid $2.1 million for their new transitional-style digs in a bidding war, as was first reported by Orlando Weekly. Originally listed for $400,000 less, the two-story stucco and stone-accented structure rests on over a quarter-acre parcel in the tony Winter Park enclave near Orlando, and features four bedrooms and five baths spread across just over 4,200 square feet of recently updated living space.
Curry is the NBA’s all-time leader for three-point shots made and is the sixth-highest-paid athlete in the world with an estimated $86.2 million in earnings, per Sportico’s ranking of the highest-paid athletes in the world. As for Ayesha, she’s most known for her Food Network show “Ayesha’s Home Kitchen” and cookware line.
The centerpiece is a gourmet kitchen outfitted with an eat-in island, high-end Thermador appliances and a breakfast nook, which connects to a fireside family room sporting sliding glass doors that open to provide seamless indoor-outdoor environs. There’s also a private office space off the foyer, complete with windows overlooking the front lawn and a side courtyard.
All four bedrooms can be found on the main level, including an expansive master retreat holding a fireside sitting area, walk-in closet, and luxe bath adorned with a zero-entry shower and soaking tub. An additional ensuite bedroom has a living area, wet bar and its own entrance via one of two attached garages accommodating three vehicles; elsewhere is an upstairs flex space equipped with another wet bar and half-bath.
Though there’s no pool to be had, the grassy grounds are surrounded by PVC fencing, and host a spacious brick terrace ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining, plus a handy outdoor shower.
