\n\tTwo-time NBA All-Star and Olympic gold medalist\u00a0Allan Houston<\/a>\u00a0has been celebrated for multiple career highlights since 1999, when the 6\u20196\u201d New York<\/a> Knicks guard sank the winning shot in Game 5 of the playoffs against the Miami Heat. His team became the first eighth-seed in NBA history to reach the NBA Finals as a result. Given the Knicks\u2019\u00a0recent win of the 2026 edition<\/a>, he remains an enduring example of the team\u2019s unwavering grit.<\/p>\n

\n\tBy 2015, Houston\u2019s name sparked headlines for a different kind of trophy. The 55-year-old first listed\u00a0his sprawling French Country estate<\/a>\u00a0in Armonk, N.Y., for $19.9 million that year,\u00a0the\u00a0Wall Street Journal<\/a>\u00a0revealed. A custom manor with nearly 17,200 square feet of living space was built in 2006 on 10 lush acres for the retired athlete and his wife, Tamara, plus their seven children in Conyers Farm, a gated enclave straddling a New York and Connecticut border. An indoor basketball<\/a> court and trophy room are two of its perks.<\/p>\n

\n\tArchitect James Davis designed the eight-bedroom limestone manor on Converse Lake. Eleven full bathrooms and grand open living spaces\u2014from a great room to a recreation room\u2014offer ample room for both large gatherings and casual everyday living. It was last listed in April 2025 with an asking price of $20 million, records show. It is now available with Danielle Claroni and Christian Perry of Sotheby\u2019s International Realty, Greenwich Brokerage\u00a0at a reduced price of $17.5 million<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tAn expansive courtyard and four-car garage span the front of the palatial digs with a three-story, stone-clad facade. Inside, smooth hardwood flooring runs throughout the main living areas, where a large fireplace anchors the great room alongside intimate seating areas. The music room features a grand piano, while the kitchen island has integrated seating and a nearby dining room is centered by a dual-sided fireplace.<\/p>\n

\n\tElsewhere are a sophisticated study and a recreation room with a bar and billiards table. Decorative wallpapers with stripes and leafy motifs span the bedrooms, including the primary suite. In the primary bath, a freestanding soaking tub sits on a floor of polished onyx tile, while built-in shoe storage and rich wood finishes in the suite\u2019s two dressing rooms enhance the sense of refinement.<\/p>\n

\n\tIts most striking feature, however, is tied to Houston\u2019s blazing 12-season NBA career. The indoor half basketball court, complete with a three-point line and barreled ceilings overhead, is complemented by a full gym and steam room. Other amenities include a home theater, while a heated pool and spa, putting green for golfers, and a playground span the grounds.<\/p>\n

\n\tHouston was drafted by the Detroit Pistons in 1993 and played with them for three seasons before hooping with the New York Knicks from 1996 to 2005.
