CC Sabathia's New House Is A Modest Fixer-Upper

This is what kind of a house $14,900,000 will get you in Alpine, NJ. And unlike Yankee Stadium, it's privately funded.

CC Sabathia paid cash for the six bedroom, 12,000-square-foot mansion on two acres, where among his neighbors are Mary J. Blige, Stevie Wonder, Chris Rock and Britney Spears. "What? My newspaper is missing again! Spears!"

Of course when I saw it the first thing that came to mind was a Tom Hanks movie, The Money Pit. Do these homes not look similar? I can just see CC dangling from the interior second story after the staircase collapses beneath him.

Hmm, did the Jeep Wagoneer come with the place?
