The outside is just as impressive, if not more

After she purchased the house, Simone Biles spent most of 2020 installing and adding everything she needed for the perfect house. Unsurprisingly, she began with the swimming pool at the back of the house.

Simone’s courtyard is clearly Tuscan-styled and features plenty of lounging spots for guests, her french bulldogs, and herself. However, the clear highlight of the courtyard is the massive in-ground pool.

With nautical ceramic pool tiles and a raised hot tub, the pool roughly cost the four-time Olympic gold medalist around $50,000. Several recliner seats surround the swimming pool, with a bunch of them lined up under an iron canopy for shade.

Furthermore, a natural garden lines the perimeter of the swimming pool, with an additional, spacious lawn area off to the side. Even more interesting is the outdoor table Simone installed, which is actually an adult swing set.

Eight swinging chairs surround the wooden table in the courtyard, while a barbeque sits right beside the seating area. Clearly, Simone kept her friends in mind when going through the additional installations of her house.

Undoubtedly, Simone Biles lives in a magnificent mansion, while ensuring she stayed close to her Texan roots. Moreover, it also helps that her fiance, Jonathan Owens, lives in the same area of Houston, Texas. This does not come as a surprise, as he plays in the NFL for the Houston Texans.
