Tennis fans can now lounge at Novak Djokovic‘s sprawling Serbian retirement home after the athlete put the luxurious property on the rental market for an eye-watering sum of $17,542 a night.
Djokovic, 38, snapped up an expansive penthouse for $1.09 million in 2016, reportedly with plans to spend his retirement in the Belgrade dwelling.
However, with the tennis pro still on the hunt for further Grand Slam glory—a quest he will likely continue at the Australian Open this month—the property is understood to have been sitting vacant and unused. Until now.
Still, while Djokovic may not have taken up residence in the dwelling, it boasts the hallmarks of a celebrity abode, offering all manner of luxurious amenities for tenants to enjoy.
The home comes complete with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, an en suite, a large living area, a terrace, and a swimming pool.
The property is mere steps from the Novak Cafe and Restaurant, a food hot spot established by the tennis legend’s parents, Srdjan and Dijana, in their son’s honor.
Several reports claim that the athlete poured a lot of money into modernizing the pad, which is located in his homeland.
The dwelling, perched on the shores of Pavlovac Lake, offers guests the ultimate privacy.
The stunning living area features high white and gold ceilings, a navy blue couch, wooden floors, a cozy fireplace, and multiple chandeliers.
The room floods into the dining area, which boasts a large wooden dining table that sits up to 15 people.
The chef’s kitchen is the epitome of luxury thanks to its high ceilings adorned in wooden beams, marble tiled flooring, wooden island table, and state-of-the-art appliances.
Adjacent to the living room, there is a grand staircase that leads to the second level.
Upstairs, there is a stunning wine cellar that holds hundreds of bottles, a private gym with access to the patio, an expansive sauna, a resort-style pool, and a gaming room with a pingpong and pool table.
Of course, the home wouldn’t be complete without its very own tennis court.
The tennis legend also holds the keys to a $5.9 million home in Miami and a $8.3 million Marbella pad.
In 2017, he also picked up two homes in New York City’s Soho area for over $10 million.
Djokovic began playing pro tennis in 2003, at the age of 16.
He quickly rose through the ranks and garnered his first ATP title in 2006 and his first Grand Slam at the Australian Open in 2008.
Djokovic has since snapped up 101 ATP Tour-level singles titles, including 24 Grand Slams.
He also holds a career singles record of 1,163 wins to 233 losses.
It is unclear when Djokovic will bid farewell to the sport, as he has said that he will play as long as his body allows him to.
He previously noted that the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics were a “guiding star” for his retirement, insinuating that he would likely hang up his racket following the games.
