Derek Jeter FINALLY sells '$6million' New York castle - six years after the Yankees legend listed the century-old estate for $14.75million

Derek Jeter is abdicating his lakeside throne along the New York-New Jersey border.

The baseball Hall of Famer and retired Yankees captain has finally sold his $6 million castle on Greenwood Lake, according to market website Top Ten Real Estate Deals.

A final price for the property has not been revealed, but the home was recently listed at $6.3 million after languishing on the market for several years. He originally put the castle up for sale in 2018 for a whopping $14.75 million, according to an Associated Press article at the time.

A buyer for the property has not been disclosed publicly.

With its infinity swimming pool and abutting manmade waterfall, the four-acre property on the New York side of Greenwood Lake would have the appearance of a waterpark were it not a century-old castle.

Jeter actually spent summers at the estate during his childhood, before buying it in 2002

Interestingly, the mansion known as Tiedemann Castle reportedly belonged to the family of Jeter's maternal grandfather, William Connors. Furthermore, the 14-time All-Star spent several childhood summers at the castle before the property was sold in 1996 – the same season Jeter won American League Rookie of the Year and his first of five World Series titles.

The early 20th century construction originally belonged to Dr. Rudolph Gudewill, a professor of dentistry, whose family sold it following his death.

In this case, the buyer was the Tiedemann family, which was looking for a sprawling property for their 13 children, including an adopted son named William – Jeter's grandfather.

The estate was sold again in 1996, but when it came back on the market in 2002, Jeter purchased Tiedemann Castle and began the long process of restoring it.

The home has four kitchens for anyone who happens to get hungry walking around four acres

Technically a master castle connected to a 'guest' castle, the compound boasts six bedrooms, seven full and five half baths, as well as four kitchens for whomever gets hungry while traipsing around its 9,000 square feet.

The castle qualifies as rustic, in that in combines its original stone features (fireplaces, turrets, and even a bridge overlooking a lagoon) with wooden cupboards and cabinetry from subsequent makeovers. There's even a widow's walk between the main castle and guest house, which provides views of the lake and surrounding forest.

The castle sits 50 miles from Yankee Stadium and is the second New York property Jeter has attempted to sell in the last seven months.

Late last year, Jeter listed his Manhattan penthouse at Trump World Tower for $16.5 million.

Following his doomed stint as CEO and co-owner of the Miami Marlins, Jeter has now taken a position with Fox Sports as one of the network's MLB analysts. 

A five-time Gold Glove winner, Jeter served as Yankees captain from 2003 until his retirement in 2004.
