Oh wow, NFL cornerback and occasional aspiring wrestler Adam “Pacman” Jones is another athlete hoping for a big sale on his home. The flamboyant former Nashville Titan has moved on to the Dallas Cowboys and so he has put his Franklin, Tennessee home up for sale. And reading the blurb on the Real Estalker I knew I was in for a doozy. I’ve never seen quite so many gargantuan TVs in one place outside of a sports bar. The five-bedroom home is on 30 acres (the property website is called 30 acres and a lake). I’m not sure quite what to make of this one– a huge brick arch in the middle of a room for no good reason, a bedroom that appears to have a set of home theater seats plunked in front of a massive screen, a bathroom that seems to be designed based on the health clubs and gyms that Pacman Jones has likely seen a few of– all these things combine to make a home that is many things but welcoming is not one of them. The property includes an eight-stall horse barn and a bucolic dock and lake spoiled by the addition of fountains. No pool but there’s an above ground hot tub plunked onto the back deck. There are also two other homes on the property. Jones picked up the home in 2006 from an actress and a producer for $1.575 million and has listed it for $1,799,950 which the listing calls “priced well below market value.” Maybe, but it will still be a hard sell.
