During the 2015 NBA Finals, Brazilian basketballer Leandro Barbosa averaged 5.2 points over six games, securing the championship with the Golden State Warriors. Since then, settling with his expanding family in Florida, the 6’3” star purchased a new Orlando-area home about a year ago. Now, as Barbosa serves as an assistant coach for the Sacramento Kings, the property, located in the guard-gated Bella Collina community in Montverde, is available for $3.2 million. Boasting six bedrooms, five bathrooms, and a powder room, the transitional-contemporary residence spans 5,056 square feet, with interiors influenced by Barbosa’s Brazilian roots. Sold furnished, the home features upscale fixtures and a modern aesthetic, with high ceilings accommodating both Barbosa and towering guests.

The home has five bedrooms and six-and-a-half bathrooms.

The house features stucco walls and gable roofing on its exterior, with its most distinctive aspect being the tall, tower-like entrance. Upon entering the foyer, white marble floors and custom wooden accents dominate, echoing the prevalent materials throughout. The spacious great room is the focal point, with a lounge area facing a TV on one end and a sculptural kitchen on the other, separated by a generous dining space. Glass sliders offer seamless access to the backyard and provide panoramic views.

Exposed wood beams, matching the kitchen cabinetry, adorn the lofty ceiling of the great room. A gourmet kitchen is equipped with a gas range, convection ovens, a Sub-Zero fridge, and an island snack bar. Adjacent, the family room features a linear fireplace flanked by built-in wine display cabinets. Sliding glass doors lead to a sprawling covered patio boasting a summer kitchen.

Outside, the backyard offers bespoke amenities tailored to Barbosa’s preferences, including a heated pool and a half-court basketball court featuring his initials. Parking won’t be an issue, with space for four vehicles across the two two-car garages. The listing is held by Danilo Tavares of Corcoran.
