Built in 2023, this 10,949-square-foot residence belongs to retired MLB All-Star Matt Kemp.

Situated in Celina, Texas, the five-bedroom, six-and-a-half-bathroom home rests on a private 5.5-acre lot within a gated community.

Kemp crafted the property to reflect his lifestyle, balancing high-end craftsmanship with personalized features that nod to his career in professional baseball.

Athlete-Inspired Amenities and Custom Interiors

The home presents a transitional modern aesthetic with black accents over light-toned finishes.

Vaulted ceilings host elegant chandeliers, highlighting each room’s curated details.

The spacious primary suite features dual vanities, backlit mirrors, and a large walk-in closet system.

In the en-suite bathroom, a freestanding stone tub and a glass-encased shower with space for two.

Across the home, Kemp incorporated personal touches such as a barbershop corner, home theater, and an indoor batting cage.

Spaces Built for Function and Leisure

The home features an entertainment wing complete with a fitness area, sauna, powder room, and media lounge.

A custom office centers around a striking display wall and an executive desk.

The open-plan kitchen features two islands with waterfall countertops, a La Cornue French range, and a separate prep kitchen.

A climate-controlled wine room adds a refined touch near the main gathering spaces.

Landscaped Grounds with Purpose and Privacy

Outdoors, the backyard includes a putting green, heated pool and spa, fire pit, and an outdoor kitchen with a pizza oven and beer tap.

A man-made pond sits just beyond the patio, bordered by a walking trail that loops through the landscape.

Mature trees and a private gate ensure privacy while enhancing the natural beauty of the setting.

Kemp, now a Dodgers adviser, used the home not only as a personal retreat but also to mentor younger athletes.

From the training-ready backyard to a custom fitness suite, the residence reflects a life shaped by discipline and detail.

Though he has moved on to another part of Texas, the home remains a distinct expression of Kemp’s vision, crafted for both luxury and legacy.
