With Derek Carr now playing quarterback for the New Orleans Saints, he no longer needs his Nevada home from his time with the Las Vegas Raiders. Consequently, he has listed his modern Tuscan-style mansion in Henderson for just under $9 million—about $5.4 million more than he originally paid.
Carr and his wife Heather purchased the property for $3.6 million in early 2019 while it was still being built. They customized the two-level residence to their tastes, and it was completed in 2020. The stucco and stone-accented home sits on over a third of an acre within the gated Southern Highlands Community and features five bedrooms and seven bathrooms across roughly 8,600 square feet. Additionally, there is a 1,000-square-foot guesthouse with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, as well as an eight-car garage with a Tesla charger.
Key features of the home include a double-height living room with a floating linear fireplace and two iron-caged crystal chandeliers. The adjacent dining area is complemented by an office. A cozy den with a fireplace connects to a covered balcony and the gourmet kitchen, which boasts quartz countertops, a large island, high-end stainless steel appliances, a walk-in pantry, and a breakfast nook.
The luxurious primary suite upstairs includes a seating area with a fireplace, a private balcony, a walk-in closet, and a spa-like bathroom with dual vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, and a spacious open shower. The home also features a golf simulator and a fully equipped gym.
Outdoors, the property offers turf-covered grounds with two pools (one featuring a waterslide), a sports court, and an entertainment patio with a built-in barbecue and fire pit. The listing, managed by Stan Hicks of Coldwell Banker Premier Realty, also offers the new owner the option to purchase a membership to the Southern Highlands Golf Club.
Carr, the younger sibling of NFL analyst David Carr, was drafted by the Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders in the second round of the 2014 NFL Draft. The 33-year-old California native set several franchise records with the team, including passing yards, completions, attempts, and touchdowns. After being released towards the end of the 2022 season, he signed a four-year, $150 million contract with the Saints.
