Yankees captain Derek Jeter put his huge, New York bachelor-pad penthouse apartment near the United Nations on the market with a whopping $20 million asking price Wednesday, according to a listing on the Trump Sales and Leasing's website.
The superstar shortstop, who is in the last year of his 10-year Yankees contract, bought the residence in Trump World Tower directly from real estate mogul Donald Trump in October 2001 for $12.6 million.
The 5,425 square-foot apartment has four bedrooms, five and a half bathrooms and a chef's eat-in kitchen. It also has16-foot floor-to-ceiling windows, which flood the apartment with light and give jaw-dropping views of the East River.
But don't worry that Jeter won't have a place to call home now that plans on vacating 845 United Nations Plaza.
He is putting the finishing touches on a massive, 30,875 square-foot, seven-bedroom, nine-bathroom waterfront home on Davis Island in Tampa, Fla.
That shack — known as St. Jetersburg by locals — should provide him and his girlfriend, "Friday Night Lights" star Minka Kelly, with plenty of room to spread out in the offseason.
Sources said they didn't expect Jeter's change of address would mean a change of teams.
The New York favorite, who has never played with a team other than the Bronx Bombers, is expected to sign a contract after the end of this season that will ensure he will end his playing days in Yankees pinstripes.
"Derek is the greatest. There's nobody like him," said Trump, who signed a confidentiality agreement and can't talk about the building.
