New York Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira has decided to rent out his rustic lodge-style home rather than sell it.
The estate is located in the 525 acre community of Vaquero; which is located in the town of Westlake, TX, a neighborhood that Forbes named the most affluent in the U.S. Public records show Teixeira’s Vaquero home was first listed in 2008 for $5.75M, then reduced to $4.55M, and again reduced to $3.995M. He recently put the estate up for rent at $15,000 a month and quickly locked in New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton as his new tenant.
Teixeira’s home is located on 1.08 acres and has 8554 sq-ft, 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, and a guest house. The extensive main house has a gourmet eat-in kitchen, massive game room with bar and deck, and a 2-level office. The master suite includes His & Her baths, a gas fireplace and a huge patio with an infinity-pool style hot tub. The home also has a home theater that opens directly out to the patio which has a fireplace, seating area and bar. Outside Teixeira’s home is just as nice. It comes complete with a negative-edge pool, a covered patio with outdoor kitchen, fire pit.
As a resident of Vaquero you can also become a member of the exclusive Vaquero Club. For an initiation fee of $175,000 and $15,000 in annual dues, club members can enjoy a golf course, swim center, fishing ponds a fitness center, clubhouse, & a wide range of perks including tennis lessons, having an on-call decorator, or even coordinating a pet sitter while you’re out of town.
