Inside Max Scherzer’s gorgeous $9.7m Admirals Cove mansion with MLB legend Mike Schmidt as Florida neighbor

The 37-year-old MLB pitcher moved from the Los Angeles Dodgers to the New York Yankees after getting a huge three-year deal in December.

Scherzer signed a deal that will pay him $130 million over the next three seasons. This makes him the highest-paid player in MLB history.

The Mets train in Port St. Lucie, which is about 30 miles away and an easy drive from Scherzer’s upscale home in Admirals Cove, which is in a nice area.

With a total area of over 8,000 square feet, Scherzer has plenty of room to relax after a hard day on the field. And comfort is definitely at the top of the list outside, where there is a big outdoor kitchen and a 180-square-foot pool to relax in.

The resort-style pool takes up most of the space on the property, which also has a mooring that can fit a 70-foot boat.

Tiger Woods, Cameron Smith, and Dustin Johnson, all famous golfers, all live in luxury close to Jupiter.

Mike Schmidt, a famous third baseman who has been an All-Star 12 times, lives just down the street from Scherzer. This gives Scherzer the chance to hang out with an MLB star.

Admirals Cove has golf courses, a spa, restaurants, gyms, and even a harbor to keep its wealthy residents safe and happy all year long.

The least expensive house for sale in the area costs a cool $2.85 million.

“IT’S IN MY BACKYARD.”

It was sold by real estate investor Justin Daniels and his wife, Robin. They bought the house when it was brand new for $8 million.

Inside, there are five big bedrooms, eight and a half bathrooms, and a huge kitchen that is ready for a private chef.

The Mets player bought the house in June 2020, about 18 months before he signed his huge contract.

And training being so close to where he lives now was a big plus for Scherzer, who told NY Mets owner Steve Cohen on Zoom, “it’s right in my backyard.” There are also three large seating places in the house, and the open-plan kitchen leads to a large living room.

Two of the bedrooms have huge walk-in closets, and the covered patio has air conditioning for those hσt Florida nights.

Scherzer’s cars can fit in a four-car garage, and the MLB pro drove up to lockout talks in a beautiful black Porsche.

Scherzer sold his old house in Los Angeles for $15 million, and he found a buyer within 24 hours of putting it up for sale. His old house was on the Potomac River in West Virginia. The former Dodgers star had done a lot of work on it from the ground up.

Tucked away in a secluded wooded area, the five-bed property had windows from roof to floor to take full advantage of stunning panoramic views. Scherzer has had a good start with the Mets. After beating the St. Louis Cardinals on April 26, the Mets went 13-5.

Despite a hamstring issue hampering his season prep, the veteran looked in vintage form as he struck out ten in his opening match at Citi Field
