Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid is selling his luxury penthouse in Society Hill for $5.5 million, writes Michael Tanenbaum for PhillyVoice.

Embiid’s condo on the 11th floor of a building at 101 Walnut Street is a two-bedroom property that covers about 3,500 square feet.

It includes two balconies on the main level, and a private rooftop space with a pool, hot tub, and outdoor kitchen. 

The penthouse also has two full bathrooms and two half bathrooms.

The amenities at the building include a virtual doorman and elevators that lead directly to the suites. 

Embiid purchased the property in 2018 for $3.2 million. 

Earlier in his career, Embiid lived at a condo inside Two Liberty Place in Center City, which he acquired thanks to help from John Bolaris, a local meteorologist-turned-real-estate agent.
