Former MLB All-Star Justin Upton Selling Mod Farmhouse in Newport Beach for $6.8M

Former MLB All-Star Justin Upton is selling his lovely Newport Beach, CA, home for $6,795,000.

The 5,963-square-foot, five-bedroom mansion in the Dover Shores neighborhood offers luxurious amenities at every turn. Upton purchased the place for $4.7 million in March 2020, while playing for the Los Angeles Angels.

With a stylish modern farmhouse vibe, the interior includes rustic beams, reclaimed-oak floors, and cozy fireplaces. High-end finishes abound here—stunning brass door handles and bathroom fixtures are just two examples.

The kitchen is equal parts practical and beautiful. Highlights include a suite of Thermador appliances, lava stone counters, and a butcher-block island. There’s seating at the island, in the adjacent breakfast nook, and even outside in the patio area. This open-air space also features a kitchen setup, seating, and a fire pit.

And if the new owner wants to make a splash, there’s plenty of room for a pool.

On the main level, the primary suite boasts a fireplace and outdoor access with seating. The primary bathroom features double vanities and a deep soaking tub, surrounded by a bank of windows.

This home’s lower level is a true standout and is well equipped to handle a crowd, thanks to the glassed-in wine cellar, home theater, full bar with a beer froster, fridge, and popcorn maker. Full automation in this smart home means you can control the lights and music at the touch of a button.

Upton, 36, made his major league debut at the age of 19 with the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2007. A four-time All-Star, the slugging outfielder bounced around the big leagues after six seasons with Arizona. While he never officially announced his retirement, he hasn’t played since a short stint with the Seattle Mariners ended in July 2022.

Annie Clougherty at Compass has the listing.
