As Realtor.com broke out its most popular homes for the week based on views on its website, the mansion of Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler topped the list. The house at 561 Circle Lane, Lake Forest, is on the market for $4.75 million.
Cutler has retired and will become a broadcaster, which means he may spend little time around Chicago. As he departs, he leaves a seven bedroom, seven full and three half bathroom house spread over 11,000 square feet. The house is practically new, built in 2013.
Lake Forest is just north of Chicago on Lake Michigan. It has just under 20,000 residents, up from 15,000 in 1980. The population is almost entirely white at 96%. Residents are rich by national standards, with a median household income over $150,000, nearly three times the national average. Before he left the Bears, his guaranteed salary for 2017 was $12.5 million.
