Chicago Bears guard Nate Davis paid $2.3 million in May for a five-bedroom, 5,537-square-foot house in Highland Park.
A Virginia native who previously had played for the Tennessee Titans, Davis signed a three-year, $30 million deal with the Bears in March. He battled injuries in his first year with the team, including missing four games later in the season with a high ankle sprain.
Built in 2003 and designed by Evanston architect Michael Hershenson, Davis’ new house has five bathrooms, three fireplaces, a kitchen with a butler’s pantry, a family room with built-ins and a wall of windows and a wood-paneled study on the first floor. Other features include a four-season sunroom that offers ravine views and a primary suite with a second office, a private screened porch, dual custom walk-in closets and heated floors.
Downstairs on the lower level, the house has a game room, a kitchenette and a fitness room.
The house sits on a 1.28-acre property and is accessed via a wooded private drive.
The agent who represented Davis, Paul Gorney of eXp Realty, could not be reached for comment.
The house had a $52,785 property tax bill in the 2022 tax year.
