In a jaw-dropping real estate feat, Jeffrey Johnson, Microsoft’s chief technology officer, recently sold his Meydenbauer Bay mansion for an eye-watering $20.3 million! Originally listed for $23 million, the house went from “For Sale” to “Sold” in just 13 days. Who knew tech titans had such a flair for high-stakes real estate? This isn’t just any mansion; it’s a waterfront paradise with stunning views and all the amenities you can dream of, from a private dock for a yacht to a lavish poolside cabana.
Built in 1984 and set on 0.45 acres, this home boasts six bedrooms and ten bathrooms—just enough space for a family of wannabe tech moguls! Johnson snagged this beauty back in 2010 for $4.9 million and has since renovated it not once but twice. Imagine putting in a bar, a wine cellar that holds 2,000 bottles, and a gym—not exactly your average DIY project! It’s nearly enough to make you consider putting your own fixer-upper on the market.
But this mansion isn’t just about luxurious living; it’s part of a booming real estate scene. With so much happening in Bellevue, you can’t help but wonder—what other tech titans are lurking around the corner, ready to drop a fortune on their slice of paradise? If you could upgrade your home with one luxury feature, what would it be? Let’s hear your thoughts in the comments!
