Antonio Brown’s former home is on the market in Florida two years after he filed for bankruptcy and four months after he was charged with second-degree attempted murder in the state.
Listed at $4 million, the secluded waterfront estate in Odessa offers a pool, a dock on Lake Keystone, soaring ceilings, a winding staircase and ‘a breathtaking two-story wall of clerestory windows,’ according to the listing.
The six-bedroom, eight-bathroom home ‘[blurs] the lines between indoor elegance and outdoor lakefront living’ with a style described as ‘Contemporary, Florida, Mediterranean.’
The garage has space for up to 11 vehicles, all of which will be further protected by a gated approach.
Interestingly, the listing specifically targets ‘athletes, entertainers, or those seeking a luxury escape just minutes from’ Tampa.
It’s unclear if Brown is the seller in this case or if he’s already been relieved of the home as part of the liquidation process. A transaction record for the property shows it was put up for sale by Brown in March of 2024 but does not list any buyer. He originally purchased the property in 2021, while he was still with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Brown’s assets are still in the process of being liquidated by the courts. Despite earning more than $84 million over his nine-year career, he declared bankruptcy in May of 2024 as he owed $3.5 million to eight creditors.
However, Brown later boasted of ‘having money’ and enjoying the high life amid the Chapter 11 proceedings.
‘I’m just enjoying the freedom that comes with having money,’ Brown told rapper and podcaster Yung Miami in November of 2024.
Of course, Brown’s upcoming trial on an attempted murder charge has overshadowed his financial issues.
He pleaded not guilty in November to a charge of attempted second-degree murder after being extradited from Dubai, where he’d been since the May 16 shooting outside a Miami boxing event. He remains out on bond and currently faces up to 30 years in prison if convicted.
Shortly after the shooting, viral video surfaced showing Brown running towards a brawl with a firearm in hand. The Super Bowl winner later claimed on social media he was defending himself from a would-be jewel thief, ultimately identified as Zul-Qarnain Kwame Nantambu.
A jewelry designer who has a long legal history with Brown, Nantambu contradicted that claim in an interview with the Daily Mail.

Nantambu claimed it was he who was attacked by security guards on Brown’s instruction as the retired receiver ran to retrieve a firearm. Nantambu, who wasn’t arrested or even detained, told the Daily Mail that a bullet grazed his neck and he suffered a broken finger in the melee.
Eiglarsh has admitted his client fled the brawl with Nantambu and others only to return with a ‘concealed firearm.’ But as Eiglarsh wrote in his motion to dismiss, Brown had no intention of shooting when he returned to the fray and only ‘fired two warning shots’ in an effort to deescalate the situation.
‘Brown hoped the warning shots would deter Nantambu’s aggression, allowing Brown to safely reach his vehicle and leave the scene,’ read the motion.
Brown spoke to police and was allowed to leave the scene that night only to become the subject of an arrest warrant in June while he remained in Dubai.
Eiglarsh’s motion accuses Nantambu of stealing Brown’s firearm. Additionally, it includes the claim that Nantambu previously attacked the long-time Pittsburgh Steelers star while the two were backstage at a concert in 2023.
Nantambu did not respond to the Daily Mail’s request for comment on Eiglarsh’s December motion.
