A look at the opulent mansions of the rich and famous

Jürgen Klinsmann | $2 Million | Newport Beach

Jürgen Klinsmann isn’t just known worldwide for his skills as a player, but also as a coach, including managing the German national team during the 2006 World Cup. Celebrated as one of the “125 Greatest Living Footballers”, Klinsmann later made a name for himself coaching in various international leagues, even taking the helm of the US national team.

The German soccer pro moved to California in 2012, snapping up a single-family home in Newport Heights. He bought it for $1.476 million in 2012 and later sold it for $2.099 million. After giving the place a makeover, especially modernizing the kitchen, he made a tidy profit. The investment and renovations really made the property a hot ticket.
