Stepping Inside Horford’s Mansion
Horford’s mansion opens to a dramatic two-story foyer centered around a pair of glass-lined staircases that rise around a central display table.
Glossy white floors reflect the natural light pouring in through the glass entry doors and back wall of windows, while paneled walls, recessed lighting, and a cascading chandelier emphasize the home’s grand scale.
Just past the foyer, the home’s main living spaces spread out across light oak flooring, starting with a simple lounge.
Main Living Room
Off to the left, the main living room features a long linear fireplace set beneath oversized abstract artwork, with a collection of neutral-toned seating arranged around a circular wood coffee table.
Soft textures, light finishes, and clean lines give the space a contemporary feel while maintaining the elegance found throughout the residence.
Floor-to-ceiling black-framed windows and glass doors along the back of the open space bring in natural light and provide views of the backyard.
Chef’s Kitchen
Off to the right, directly across from the living room, the home opens into a bright eat-in kitchen that begins with a casual dining area.
A round wood table surrounded by upholstered chairs sits beside French doors leading to the backyard, creating an informal space for everyday meals.
Beyond the dining area, the chef’s kitchen is finished in a clean palette of white cabinetry, light oak floors, and a full-height marble backsplash.
A large center island provides seating for several guests beneath a modern pendant fixture, while professional-grade appliances, including a range and oversized vent hood, are integrated into the perimeter cabinetry.
Extensive storage, generous prep space, and views of the landscape complete this main kitchen, which was designed to handle both family gatherings and large-scale events.
Formal Dining Room
For more formal meals, the formal dining room connects directly to the kitchen at the front of the house.
Inside, a long dark dining table sits beneath a crystal chandelier, with seating for large dinner parties and holiday gatherings.
Primary Suite
The primary suite occupies a large portion of the upper level, combining a spacious bedroom, a two-story walk-in closet, and a marble bathroom.
Bedroom & Private Lounges
The bedroom itself is exceptionally large, with enough space to accommodate both a sleeping area and multiple seating arrangements without feeling crowded.
A fully upholstered bed sits in the middle of the room, while at the far end, a sitting area gathers around a linear fireplace.
On the other side of the bed, floor-to-ceiling windows and oversized glass doors sit behind a plush sofa and round coffee table.
Next to this seating area is a personal bar finished in dark wood, providing a dedicated spot for morning coffee, evening drinks, or entertaining without leaving the suite.
Two-Story Walk-In Closet
Connected to the bedroom is a two-story walk-in closet designed with dark wood cabinetry that lines the walls and a large center island.
A floating staircase with glass railings leads to the upper level of the closet, taking advantage of the room’s vertical space.
En-Suite Bathroom
The bathroom continues the suite’s oversized scale, wrapped almost entirely in marble.
Off to one side, a long floating vanity stretches beneath an entire wall of mirrors, offering abundant storage and counter space.
Across the room is a glass walk-through shower with double-sided fixtures and a center rainfall shower head.
Finishing off the bathroom next to the shower, a soaking tub sits beneath a large window that overlooks the surrounding greenery.
Home Gym
One of the main amenities within Horford’s mansion is the home gym. Mirrored walls wrap much of the room, reflecting the equipment and making the already expansive space feel even larger.
A squat rack, cable machine, free weights, kettlebells, and benches provide everything needed for weight training, while multiple treadmills and a Peloton bike create cardio sections.
Adding a personal touch, the gym is decorated with memorabilia celebrating Boston sports, including framed jerseys from Tom Brady, Jayson Tatum, Patrice Bergeron, and Garrett Crochet beneath a glowing “Boston” sign.
The Backyard
Stepping outside, a large stone patio stretches across the back of the house, creating multiple areas for outdoor dining and lounging.
A dining table, built-in grilling station, seating area, and firepit provide the essentials for entertaining, while the wall of glass doors creates a connection between the interior living spaces and the backyard.
Beyond the patio, the nearly level yard extends across much of the 1.6-acre property, bordered by tall trees and stone retaining walls.
While the outdoor amenities are currently modest compared to the scale of the home, the expansive lawn offers considerable flexibility for a future owner to add a pool, sports court, putting green, or other recreational features.
Final Thoughts
After just a short time calling this Brookline mansion home, Horford is looking to sell as his career has taken him to the opposite coast with a new two-year, $11.65 million contract with the Golden State Warriors.
Therefore, the listing offers a future owner a newly built mansion with a sizable 1.6-acre lot in one of Greater Boston’s most sought-after communities.
Between its 13,200 square feet of living space, expansive entertaining areas, private gym, and room to further customize the grounds, the property provides both immediate luxury and long-term potential.
