Former Chicago Bears offensive coordinator Luke Getsy and his wife, Tina, scored a quick sale on their six-bedroom, 5,610-square-foot house in southwest Waukegan, unloading on April 4 for $1.6 million.
Getsy, 40, was the Bears’ offensive coordinator from early 2022 until January, when he was fired as part of a purge that was the result of the team’s disappointing 2023 season, which concluded with a 7-10 record. Getsy now is the Las Vegas Raiders’ offensive coordinator.
The house that the Getsys sold technically is inside Waukegan’s city limits but has a Libertyville mailing address. Built in 1998, the traditional-style home is in the Nickels and Dimes neighborhood and has five bathrooms, four fireplaces, new hardwood floors, new light fixtures, a newly renovated mudroom with custom built-ins and a kitchen with Sub-Zero and Thermador appliances and quartz countertops. Other features include a newly renovated office with custom built-ins, a “smart” system, a primary bedroom suite with a fireplace and dual vanities in the bathroom, and a lower level with a custom bar, an adjacent billiards area, a new projection screen TV and an exercise or multipurpose room.
Outside on the 1.86-acre property are a newly resurfaced swimming pool with a large attached hot tub, a limestone fire pit, all-new outdoor lighting, perennial gardens and a pond at the far rear of the property.
The couple paid $1.57 million in April 2022 for the house. They listed it in February for $1.67 million and went under contract to sell it less than three weeks later. Public records do not yet identify the buyer.
Listing agent Amy Seymour of @properties Christie’s International Real Estate declined to comment on the listing.
The house had a $33,899 property tax bill in the 2022 tax year.
