Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills has made quite a catch in Fort Lauderdale, FL. According to the South Florida Business Journal, Stills’ new address is a posh waterfront pad located right along the New River.

The speedy wideout bought the pad for $2.425 million, closing on the home in late July. Turns out Stills managed to score a deal, too: The 4,000-square-foot property originally listed for $2.825 million last October.

A vaulted ceiling and open layout make the dining space feel airy.

Inside, it’s a veritable display of sherbet and popsicle colors, from the icy-blue exterior to the walls. Some of the rooms are painted orange and lime.

Will the receiver repaint those walls in favor of a more neutral look, or keep the candy-inspired vibe? The vaulted ceilings and open layout are ideal for entertaining—it looks like a perfect spot to entertain teammates.

A soak with a view? Yes, please!

The four-bedroom, five-bath home, built in the mid-1960s, also has a modernized all-white kitchen, a urinal in one of the bathrooms, and French doors opening out to the deck. A free-standing soaking tub in the master bath offers a view of the waterfront.

The home’s outdoor pool, with water features

It sits on nearly an acre of land, with 421 feet of private waterfront. The outside vibe is very chill, with a stunning luxury outdoor kitchen next to the pool and a massive, tiered deck. The three-car garage is a sweet spot to store toys and sports cars.

Born in Minnesota, Stills starred at the University of Oklahoma before the New Orleans Saints scooped him up in the fifth-round 2013 NFL Draft. In 2015, he was traded to the Dolphins, signing a $32-million, four-year contract extension this spring.

Both his father and uncle are NFL alums. Ken Stills Sr. played for the Green Bay Packers and the Minnesota Vikings, while Gary Stills served as a linebacker for four teams, including the Kansas City Chiefs.
