Vinny Testaverde in Oyster Bay Cove, Estate of the Day

Chad Pennington and Vinny Testaverde share more than just their NFL quarterback careers in common, they also have the same real estate agency to help them sell their New York homes. We saw Pennington's home on Sunday today Testaverde's mansion. Testaverde's home is also a brick Colonial but on a more lavish scale than Pennington's. Testaverde's Oyster Bay Cove home is a six-bedroom on over four acres. The home includes a master suite with private balcony,sitting room, steam shower and Jacuzzi. It's a little more recognizable as a sports home than Pennington's was especially since Testaverde's got his footballs and jerseys on display in the theater room. Of course the home also has a huge fitness area with a suana and steam room and there is also a video game room, billiards room and a trophy room, fabulous kitchen and a nice wine nook. The property includes a Gunite pool with a waterfall, kiddie pool, Jacuzzi and a basketball court. It is listed at $6.495 million.
UPDATE: This home is now listed at $5.9 million.

Not attempting to be rude, but most of these "Estates" are SO boring. McMansions at best, Supersized ones at worst. No character, no real "value;" completely disposable and forgettable.
This circumstance is not your fault, however (and is certainly a matter of personal opinion); it is the fault of the lack of class and taste of many of the "new money" strata. Give me an early 1900's designed and built estate with some real "grounds" to stroll any day of the week.
Additional "harumph" for good measure.

i like the outside of the house, but the inside is nothing really special. The decor is not so great and the foyer is just bland with the white walls.

To Rich,
I think to each their own, I haven't seen many estates of the day that I actually liked, but this is one of them that I can say I would definitely fancy living in.
The gymnasium is a clever and nice touch, very spacious, colorful decor and walls, definitely not as plain as the other estates that have been featured before.

its been on and off the market for a while now. its a decent place at a reasonable price imo. the exterior is nice (maybe get rid of the basketball court), but the interior (with the exception of the kitchen) needs updating.
