Christian McCaffrey lists massive Charlotte lake house for $12.5 million
When he’s been healthy, Christian McCaffrey has established himself as one of the most dominant running backs in National Football League history. And along with his prolific production on the gridiron, the former Stanford star has accumulated an extensive amount of wealth, as you might imagine.
Last week, it was revealed on Twitter that the all-purpose tailback was putting his mansion in Charlotte, North Carolina up for sale for a cool $12.5 million, according to Joe Pompliano.
The home itself is pretty spectacular, loaded with a beautiful lakefront view. The landscaping in the front yard looks immaculate. And it comes loaded with a movie theater, gym, pool, and its own boat dock. He originally bought the house for $7.5 million in 2020, which would land him a nice profit of $5 million if he sells it at the currently listed price.
McCaffrey has enjoyed a dominant 2023-2024 campaign, and he’s been a massive reason why the San Francisco 49ers are in the 2024 NFC Championship Game against the Detroit Lions. He’s shown he’s one of the best players in the league yet again, rushing for 1,459 yards (career-high) and 14 touchdowns. As a receiver, he’s hauled in 564 receiving yards and seven touchdowns, reaffirming the fact that he’s one of the best all-purpose backs in NFL history.
Detroit and San Francisco will face off in the 2024 NFC Championship Game on Sunday, January 28th. Kick for that one is slated for 6:30 PM EST. The game will be nationally televised on FOX.
In 2022, McCaffrey became the first player since 2005 to throw a touchdown, catch a touchdown, and rush for a touchdown in the same game. The last player to do so was Hall-of-Famer LaDainian Tomlinson for the San Diego Chargers.
One of the greatest college running backs of all time
Christian McCaffrey finished his college career at Stanford as one of the most decorated running backs to ever play the game. While he didn’t win the Heisman Trophy, in 2015 he broke Barry Sanders‘ single-season all-purpose yardage record of 3,250 rushing yards he set in 1998.
The record was considered one of the most difficult records for any record back to break and McCaffrey found a way to do it. In 2015, he shredded opposing defenses to the tune of 3,864 all-purpose yards. He rushed for over 2,000 rushing yards in that season, while racking up over 1,000 yards on kick returns. His 1,070 kick return yards were the third most in school history. At the time, he became one of only two FBS players to tally over 3,500 rushing yards, while hauling in over 1,200 receiving yards.
He was named first-team All-American in 2015 both as a kick returner and a running back. The accolades for his 2015 season are nearly endless; he was named Associated Press Player of the Year, Pac-12 Offensive Player of the Year and the Rose Bowl Offensive MVP.
A former selection to the U.S. Army All-American game, McCaffrey was one of the most highly sought-after running backs in the country coming out of high school. The Colorado native was rated as one of the top running backs in America and chose Stanford over Arizona State, Boise State, Colorado, and Colorado State. He was rated as a four-star running back coming out of Valor Christian (Littleton, Colorado).
