Hines Ward, former Super Bowl MVP, lists his home in Houston

A Houston native and former Super Bowl MVP recently listed his Cypress home for $2.1 million.

Hines Ward has put his home at 19114 Caney Creek Mills on the market. The 5,600 square foot home is priced at almost $377 per square foot. Rene Rodriguez of Nan and Company Properties has the listing.

Located in the Towne Lake subdivision and built in 2022, it has five bedrooms and five full bathrooms, plus one half bathroom. Features include a putting green, outdoor kitchen, swimming pool and jacuzzi. The home is valued at nearly $1.6 million by the Harris Central Appraisal District. Ward is its first owner.

Nan and Co. launched a sports division a year ago, starting with the rosters of former Houston Astros player Yuli Gurriel and former Rockets player Garrison Matthews.

Ward, 48, played for the Pittsburgh Steelers his entire career, from 1998 to 2011, and appeared in two Super Bowl games, in 2005 (when he was MVP) and 2009. Hines began his career as a coach with the Steelers in 2017. He was head coach of the San Antonio Brahmas of the XFL from 2022 to 2023, and was hired this year as wide receivers coach by the Arizona State University Sun Devils.

The luxury home market in Houston, defined as homes valued at $1 million or more, is on the rise. Sales in this price range were up 48% year over year in February, according to the Houston Association of Realtors. Nancy Almodovar of Nan and Co. represented the buyer in the second-most expensive home sale ever on the market in March, a River Oaks mansion once owned by Hines founder Gerald D. Hines and listed at 20 million dollars.

Eight-figure home sales are becoming more common in Texas. At least two homes sold for more than $10 million in Houston last year.
