Colin Kaepernick purchased this 4,569 square foot home in the Silver Creek neighborhood of Santa Clara, CA for $2.7 million in 2014. While the home was built in 1999, it underwent a $300,000 renovation in recent years that’s transformed it into a gorgeous modern residence!
Past the intricate ornate double doors of the entrance, you’ll find the classy living room with 2 sets of glass doors, a beautiful fireplace, and soft, recessed lighting. In the next room over is a swanky home office that uses bolder reds and black shades that really make the space pop!
Another visually striking space in the 4-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom home is the kitchen! Modern cabinetry, sleek granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a huge window so that while you’re cooking up something tasty in the kitchen, you can enjoy a stunning view of the bay area beyond.
Just past the kitchen, you can also find the home’s second open concept living room!
A formal dining space off the kitchen dazzles with an eye-catching chandelier and double windows for natural lighting as well as more incredible views of the lush greenery outside. If you want dinner with a view – this is where you get it!
For amenities, the home features an elegant game room and spacious wet bar with enough seating for 5 at the bar itself and additional seating on a nearby bench. Why would you ever even need to go out for a night on the town when you have this at home?!
Unsurprisingly, the master suite is absolutely incredible! Imagine just laying back in bed and being surrounded by those views of Santa Clara Valley below – daytime or dark, you know that has to be a magical experience!
And hey, if you want a closer look, step outside the double doors and get your fill of fresh air and beautiful views from the balcony!
Okay, so mansion 101 here – if you have a fancy master bedroom, you better have an equally opulent en-suite to match, and this place certainly does! A jetted soaking tub, massive shower, and double vanity sinks create a truly decadent en-suite worthy of appreciation.
It’s not hard to see that some of that renovation money went into redesigning this bathroom and it was Worth. Every. Penny!
Outside, a landscape of palm trees and other tropical plants perfectly complements the waterfall pool and jacuzzi. In addition to the pool, there’s also a spacious covered patio as well as a grill station and covered outdoor dining space perfect for entertaining. 
You may think anyone lucky enough to take ownership of this place would never give it up, right? Apparently, Kaepernick is not quite as sentimental about the property, because he listed it for $2.895 million in 2016 and finally sold the home a year later for $3 million.
