NFL Hall Of Famer Selling Danville Home

DANVILLE, CA —NFL Hall of Famer Larry Allen is looking to score a sale of his mansion in Danville, which has landed on the market for $7.5 million.

Allen anchored the offensive line with the Dallas Cowboys for most of his career and spent his final couple of seasons with the San Francisco 49ers, in 2006-07. The Super Bowl champ purchased this 10,116-square-foot manse for $4.6 million in 2004.

The “elegant, custom estate” with seven beds and eight baths is located in the gated community of Blackhawk Country Club. The home is accessed by a private road over a bridge, and is set on a lush garden in a secluded setting, with views of the golf course and creek.

The 1.51-acre property includes a pool, spa, sport court, and rolling lawns.

The mansion's interior features an open floor plan with “soaring ceilings and gorgeous millwork,” along with a formal dining room, crafts room, office, theater, indoor spa and sauna, and loft space.

The kitchen features a breakfast nook, stone counters, and a pantry, and opens to an adjacent family room. The updated master suite includes an en suite bath with a sauna and jetted tub. An attached garage can hold six cars.

After playing college ball with Sonoma State University, Allen was drafted by the Cowboys in 1994 and played a crucial role for America's Team until 2005. Allen’s NFL career spanned 14 seasons protecting the likes of Troy Aikman and Drew Bledsoe. He retired after the 2007 season.

Allen played in 203 games, made the All-Decade Team in the 1990s and 2000s, and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2013.
