The ultimate Yankees fan can own Babe Ruth's Boston home for just $1.65 million


For just $1.65 million, you too can own the suburban home where Babe Ruth lived before the Sox traded him to the NY Yankees. Home Plate Farm, 558 Dutton Rd, Sudbury, Mass is on the market for more than Ruth earned in his entire career. FOX Sports reports:

The 5,000-square-foot, five-bedroom, 3 1/2-bathroom home on a two-acre plot has undergone extensive renovations since the 1920s, including ''a chef's dream kitchen, richly detailed family room, a sunny master suite with vaulted ceilings'' and more, the listing says.


But some of Ruth's personal touches remain. One room even has burn marks on the floor where Ruth is said to have flicked his cigar ashes, Scott Adamson, of Coldwell Banker Residential brokerage said.


The property also includes a 5,000-square-foot barn with stables, office space, garage bays and a one-bedroom apartment with a full kitchen and bathroom.



Better hurry. 5,000 square feet plus a barn? Makes it acceptable quarters for Mike Francesa and or Steiner Sports...The only drawback may be the occasional baseball fan who stops by to take a look, said Aglaia Pikounis, a spokeswoman for Coldwell Banker's parent company.


They should have auctioned it off.
