A true architectural gem 💎
, was originally named Ursa Major—a nod to Chamberlain’s “The Big Dipper” nickname, which came from the 7-foot-1 player having to dip his head when he walked through doorways. His height played into Rich’s creation, which is a Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired triangular home. Ryan Lahiff
The home is located on a hilltop in a private cul-de-sac and ensconced by towering trees on all sides. You enter the place through a weaving stone pathway flanked by small, dimly lit ponds and water features, and are greeted by a 2,000-pound front door. Once inside, you’ll find what’s arguably the most striking aspect of the home: the five-story, 40-foot ceilings.
The 9,400-square-foot residence has six bedrooms and eight bathrooms. The seller, Russian investor Dmitri Novikov, extensively renovated the home to include modern technology and more amenities. After purchasing it in 2009 for $6.5 million, he decided to remove some of Chamberlain’s more curious features like a wall-to-wall waterbed-lined “playroom” and a mirrored, retractable ceiling in the primary bedroom.
