Chicago Bears new head coach John Fox is ready to let go of his North Carolina home, four years after he left the Panthers.

The 60-year-old football mentor listed his 14,866-square-foot Charlotte home on the market for $7 million, according to Realtor.com. The former coach of the Carolina Panthers, who served the team for a decade, reportedly held on to the grand home even though he already transferred to the Denver Broncos in 2011.

With the abode's exquisite beauty, it is understandable why the Bears coach must have decided to delay its listing. The elegant property, built in 2007, has a vibrant and captivating appeal with its intricate interiors. A dramatic marble stairway warmly welcomes visitors and the great room gives a comfortable living space where family members can discuss anything under the sun.

Based on the property's listing, the estate is resting on 0.91 acres of golf course lot, an "unparalleled Spanish manor" in a prestigious neighborhood. It also exudes "luxury at it's finest," displaying "the highest quality in craftsmanship and finishes."

The expansive home includes six bedrooms, six full bathrooms, three half bathrooms, an attic, laundry rooms, living room, entertainment room, a children's play room, family room, and a chef kitchen.

The chef kitchen is a must-see for house hunters as it has several high-end appliances like a cooktop gas, a convection oven, a dishwasher, a grill top, a double oven and a refrigerator, among others.

    For movie lovers or even football fans who like recording their favorite games, the huge theater room is a cause for joy.

    Outside, there's a wonderful patio that looks out to stunning views of pristine and verdant grounds with a matching relaxing serene pond to boot. There's also an outdoor kitchen to make cooking for guests convenient, especially if the new owners set up a swimming party. The Charlotte home is indeed a picturesque property.

    The Bears hired Fox early this year and he, along with General Manager Ryan Pace, are expected to make a difference in the team. Chicago Bears President Ted Phillips praised the new coach, saying, "John Fox has great energy. He's got great passion, he's got great leadership skills, and he's a winner. How do you beat that combination? And with Ryan Pace, he came from a winning environment. So having that winning pedigree I think will only help make that infectious in our locker room and in the whole building going forward," Phillips told the press in January.
