NASCAR champion Martin Truex Jr.'s private European-style home in North Carolina just got listed for a massive price tag of $7.5 million. With an area of 14,000 square feet (approx.), located on a property spanning 4.82 acres on Lake Norman, there's a lot more on offer than just a fancy house.
Truex Jr. parted ways with full-time NASCAR racing after the 2024 season, having secured a Cup Series championship in 2017 and two Xfinity Series championships in 2004 and 2005. The 44-year-old driver has switched to part-time racing in the stock car series. His last appearance in NASCAR was at the 2025 Daytona 500, where he raced for Tricon Garage in the No. 56 Toyota.
The property on sale features 5 bedrooms and 9 baths, and is located on the waterfront. Being a racing driver, the house sports a garage for working on the cars, in addition to a large parking space to store those prized possessions.

MoreIn addition, the property screams luxury with a spa bath, a 2-story closet, and a lavish living room. Indoor highlights include a gym, theater, custom bar, and game area, while a waterfall with an infinity pool and a private dock with a boat lift make up the exterior attractions. The estate has been listed on Zillow, which states all that is on offer:
"Home to NASCAR champion Martin Truex Jr., this private European-style estate on Lake Norman offers over 14,000 sq ft of luxury living on almost 5 gated, waterfront acres. A tree-lined drive leads to a stunning main house, carriage house with guest apartment, and expansive workshop/garage.
"The main home features a grand living room with soaring ceilings and lake views, a chef's kitchen, formal dining, and a main-level primary suite with a spa bath and 2-story closet. Upstairs offers en-suite guest rooms and a second office with a loft. The finished basement includes a custom bar, theater, gym, and game area. Outside, enjoy a resort-style infinity pool, waterfall, fire pit, and private dock with boat lift.

Kyle Busch also recently listed his 15,000-square-foot barndominium for $4.5 million. Newsweek Sports reported the listing earlier this month, which would lure any car or racing enthusiast, considering the underground garages and fuel storage on offer. Busch listed the property for sale since he didn't have enough time to spend there. He wrote:
"We love this piece of land and the amazing barndominium but right now we just don't have enough time to spend there. We can't wait for someone to love it as much as we have!"
