Tiger Woods has quietly transferred ownership the Orlando area mansion where his family life unraveled on Thanksgiving in 2009, Gossip Extra has learned exclusively.
Public records in Orange County show Woods, who was four over par yesterday at The Honda Classic, is no longer the owner of the 8-bedroom mansion with the driveway where a mysterious middle-of-the-night car crash sent him to the hospital and his career into a tailspin.
The deed shows Woods’ Heywood Trust transferred ownership of the 9,000-square-foot home at 6348 Deacon Circle in the fancy Isleworth community of Windermere to another trust, 2012 Dream Land Trust.
That trust is administered by Orlando lawyer David P. Barker, who didn’t comment. There’s no way to find out through public records the identity of the person behind 2012 Dream Land.
The amount of the transaction was not posted, and the house was never officially listed for sale.
The deal was consummated in June but wasn’t reported by the media.
Woods bought the place in 2000 for $2.75 million. The Orange County Property Appraiser estimates its value for 2013 taxes at about $2.2 million.
While the house looks like your garden variety McMansion, it became the center of the tabloid universe when Woods violently slammed his SUV into a tree while leaving the house.
He was treated at a local hospital but rumors quickly started about Woods’ philandering and the possibility that a fight with wife Elin Nordegren was the cause of the crash.
Woods has since moved to Jupiter Island while Nordegren, who supposedly got $100 million-plus in their divorce, is having a beachfront crib built in North Palm Beach.
