Mariotti, who was arrested Saturday on suspicion of felony domestic assault after allegedly pushing and shoving his girlfriend, moved to Los Angeles last year and lives in the city's Venice neighborhood, according to reports.
ESPN commentator and former Sun-Times columnist Jay Mariotti has gone under contract to sell his four-bedroom, 4,200-square-foot house in Vernon Hills just weeks after placing it on the market for $655,000.
Mariotti, who was arrested Saturday on suspicion of felony domestic assault after allegedly pushing and shoving his girlfriend, moved to Los Angeles last year and lives in the city's Venice neighborhood, according to reports.
On July 15, Mariotti listed the 10-room brick house for $655,000. Just
11 days later, he cut the asking price to $614,500, and a day after that
reduced its asking price further, to $610,000. It went under contract
on Aug. 3.
Built in 1993, the house has three baths, a two-story family room with a fireplace, a two-story foyer, a library with built-ins, a patio off the dining room, a deck off the family room, a master suite with a 22-foot-by-13-foot walk-in closet, and a kitchen with stainless steel appliances, an island, a walk-in pantry and a granite bar.

"Big Frank Big Hurt" was crucifyed by Jaybird. Jaybird "The hurt"like hurting a woman and many ,many others with his poison spewing. That was the hurt calling others names all kinds of names. Jayphew knew how, and was vicious with it.
Foreclosure and bankruptcy to follow no doubt. You're getting EXACTLY what you have sown in your life. Still time to turn it around! Your material life is catching up with your mental state of mind. BANKRUPT!!!
Just sayin: $655K doesn't buy anything in Venice. Not even a condo. You can get a 1000-SF shotgun shack in Venice for about 900K. Dude's gonna be renting in LA.
I thought this was the sports section, not the real estate section?
Who Cares good riddence to bad rubbish i hope they keep him in jail now he can right terrible stories about himself
Who would want to live in a house that smells like Jay? Barf!!!!
