Kobe's childhood home for sale, includes original basketball hoop
The Philadelphia-area house that Kobe Bryant grew up in has hit the real estate market.
The 3,000-square-foot Colonial home in Wynnewood, Pennsylvania, is for sale with an asking price of $899,999. It features five bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and the original basketball hoop that the late Los Angeles Lakers legend practiced on as a middle schooler and high schooler.
Seller Kate Bayer purchased the house from the Bryant family around 12 years ago.
"When we moved in, everyone - and I mean everyone - asked, 'Do you know who lived there?'" Bayer told Hannah Chubb of People. "They were excited. The mailman, trash collectors, every neighbor ... people walking down the street."
Bryant was born in Philadelphia but spent much of his childhood in Italy, where his father, Joe Bryant, played professional basketball. The family moved into the Wynnewood home in 1991 when Bryant was 13 years old.
