The South Jersey home of Eagles great Fletcher Cox is on the market for $1.5 million.
The dominant defensive tackle, who retired in 2024 after 12 seasons with the Birds, lived in the nearly 6,000-square-foot Mullica Hill home for most of his career.
“It’s got him all over it,” said Lynne Stamm, a sales associate with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Fox and Roach, Realtors. “He put his heart and soul into the house as a young kid” who moved into the property when he was in his early 20s.
Cox, a Mississippi native, bought the house for $550,000 in 2014, according to Gloucester County property records.
Since then, Cox, now 35, has regularly updated the home, Stamm said: He installed a $15,000 chandelier in the foyer and created “a complete resort area” in the backyard with a dark-finish pool, a built-in bar, and an outdoor kitchen with a pizza oven.
The Churchill Way home has four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and two half bathrooms.
The first floor features a marble foyer, a gourmet kitchen, comfortable living areas, and two-story windows that Stamm said let in abundant natural light.
On the second floor, the bedrooms include a large primary suite and a new Jack-and-Jill suite.
The basement, referred to in the listing as an “entertainment hub,” could be outfitted as a gym, home theater, and game room, with a pool table included as part of the sale. The house also has an epoxy-finished three-car garage.
With its open floor plan and indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, Stamm said the home would be ideal for a buyer “who really likes high-end entertaining.”
The property is also turnkey, she said, due to all the upgrades Cox made over the years.
He loved the house so much that he was “reluctant” to sell, Stamm said. But the agent said Cox is excited about his new home, just a few miles away and nearly double the size, with an expansive pole barn for his race cars. Cox has owned a drag-racing team for about a decade and started driving in retirement.
His Mullica Hill home made headlines in 2019 when a man tried to break in with a baseball bat in search of his ex-girlfriend. Cox called 911 and told an operator that he was armed with a shotgun. The assailant fled, but was later arrested and indicted on charges related to the incident, according to New Jersey court records.
