This opportunity is a slam-dunk decision. It’s a chance to own a residence graced by a living legend of basketball.

Julius Erving—also known as Dr. J—is selling his condo in Orlando, FL, for the insanely affordable price of $395,000.

The condo is on the 16th floor of the building, which adds up to pretty awesome views from all angles. From the east, you’ll even be able to see rocket launches from the Kennedy Space Center.

Back in 1998, Erving purchased two units, demolished the wall in between, and created a large, airy 2,000-square-foot studio space. However, this isn’t a traditional no-bedroom-walls studio. It does have two bedrooms carved out, so personal space and privacy are all accounted for.

He added his personal touch, and the place looks like the ultimate bachelor pad. Erving mixed bold colors, statement pieces, and wide, circular columns to create an eye-catching look. Add in the 30-foot circular bar, and the condo almost feels like an upscale nightclub.

With a pool downstairs and views for days, this unit is definitely a place to entertain friends and family.

The location is also ideal. It’s situated in the heart of Orlando, which means easy access to all things Disney and all surrounding theme parks. There’s also nearby nightlife, and beaches are just a short drive to the east and west.

With a stellar location, 24-hour security, and prestigious pedigree, why is this Orlando property going for such a steal?

Apparently, there’s some water damage that needs to be fixed, and the condo is being sold as a short sale. For the right investor, though, this is an awesome opportunity. After all, Orlando is a premier vacation destination on just about everyone’s list.

A little time and effort, and we think this will be an Airbnb worthy of the Hall of Fame.
