NBA professional LaMelo Ball has placed his luxury apartment in central Charlotte on the market for 2.6 million dollars. The step follows his move from the Charlotte Hornets to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Ball initially lived in the property as a tenant of former NFL quarterback Cam Newton before acquiring the home in 2024 for 2.47 million dollars in an off-market transaction after four seasons with the Hornets.
The apartment is situated in The Trust building, an exclusive boutique condominium comprising just seven residential units in the Uptown Charlotte neighbourhood. The location is notable for its direct proximity to several major sporting venues, including the Carolina Panthers' Bank of America Stadium, Truist Field, and the Hornets' Spectrum Center.
High-specification finishes and generous layout
The living area of 3,495 square feet comprises four bedrooms and five bathrooms. Upon entering the foyer, polished marble flooring with gold and grey veining leads past floor-to-ceiling mirrored panelling and sculptural wall panels into the main living space. Expansive window frontages open up views onto the private terrace.
The open-plan living and dining area is dominated by a kitchen with an oversized waterfall island, contemporary dark fitted cabinetry, integrated wine refrigeration, and a Viking stainless steel cooker. A bespoke corner bar featuring a black stone surface and a raised glass counter complements the room ensemble. A corridor mirrored on both sides with crystal light fittings leads to the private wing of the primary suite, which offers a dressing room with glass fronts alongside a natural stone bathroom with a freestanding bath and double shower.
