The $22.5 dollars mansion on Davis Islands got referred to as ‘St. Jetersburg.’ On the other hand, NFL royalty Tom Brady joined the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020. So he had to move down to Florida along with his family. Therefore, Jeter rented out his mansion to Brady. 

The 30,000-square-foot waterfront mansion boasts seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, a six-car garage, and two boat lifts. However, Jeter sold the mansion to a new set of owners last spring. The mansion is now set to be demolished due to safety measures.
