We now know the price Russell Wilson got for his Bellevue mansion

More than two years after the Seahawks traded Russell Wilson to the Broncos, Wilson has finally offloaded his waterfront Bellevue mansion.  

The home sold for $21.25 million, according to county records filed Wednesday, shy of the original list price of $28 million.

The deal marked King County’s second-highest home sale of the calendar year, behind a $33 million Medina property that sold off market, said Windermere broker Carmen Gayton, who represented Wilson and his wife, the singer Ciara.

Few details are available about the property’s buyer. County records list the buyer as a revocable trust represented by Everett-based Schoen Trust Company. The company and Wilson’s broker both declined to comment on the new owner.

The six-bedroom, 11,000-square-foot waterfront mansion is akin to “resort living,” Gayton said. 

The home includes a “pro gym,” movie theater, yoga studio and “Hollywood-worthy glam room,” according to the property listing. The property also features a two-story custom-built treehouse. Elevated on a bluff above the waterfront, the home is linked to its three-slip dock by more than 70 metal stairs or a tram to skip the steps.

Wilson bought the home for $6.7 million in 2015. He added 1,100 square feet to the house after he married Ciara in 2016, Gayton previously told The Seattle Times. The couple have four children. After a short run in Denver, Wilson recently signed a one-year deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Gayton said in late April the Bellevue home had received an offer, but financial details weren’t publicly available until this week.

Luxury homes can take months or years to sell, brokers say. The overall Seattle-area housing market has cooled in recent years with the rise in interest rates, but buyers still face a lack of housing supply and sometimes steep competition for more affordable homes.

At such a high price point, “you’re not going to find people who are going to buy a house at that level within a week,” she said. 

The property first hit the market for sale in April 2022 at $28 million before the price dropped by $2 million that fall and $1.1 million in March of this year. 

Wilson also sold a nearly 1-acre vacant property next door for $9.75 million in June 2022 to a different buyer, making for a total deal of $31 million.
