Brandon Nimmo’s time as a Met came to an abrupt end last fall when the team traded him to the Texas Rangers. Now, the longtime fan favorite is parting with the Old Westbury estate he purchased just three years ago.
A sale is pending on the sophisticated Hamptons-style ranch on Horseshoe Road that hit the market just weeks ago — on March 31 with an asking price of $5.695 million.

That’s nearly $700,000 more than Nimmo paid for the property when he closed on it for $5 million in March 2023, shortly after signing his eight-year, $162 million contract extension with the Amazins.
Moved to Texas
The listing comes as Nimmo settles into his new life with the Rangers, following the blockbuster November trade that sent him and $5 million in cash to Texas in exchange for veteran all-star second baseman Marcus Semien.
The deal ended Nimmo’s 10-year tenure in Queens and opened a path for top prospect Carson Benge to play in the outfield for the Mets this season.
Plenty of space here
Set behind decorative gates in the exclusive Arches section of Old Westbury, the five-bedroom, seven-bathroom home sits on two meticulously landscaped acres near the Old Westbury Golf & Country Club.
The 5,287-square-foot residence features a dramatic living room with cathedral ceilings and a gas fireplace, an expansive eat-in kitchen outfitted with Sub-Zero refrigeration and Wolf cooking appliances, and an elegant dining room with seating for 10.
The private bedroom wing is positioned separated from the home’s entertaining spaces, while a dedicated office with a full bath has the potential to serve as a fifth bedroom.
Big pool, huge garage
Outside, the property transforms into a resort-like retreat centered around a hotel-style pool; it’s beauty is amplified by lush landscaping designed for privacy.
There’s also a three-car garage and a full-house Generac generator. All furnishings and personal property are included in the asking price.
The home is listed by Stephen T. Gevinski of Berkshire Hathaway.
Until the trade to Texas, Nimmo, 32, had spent his entire professional career with the Mets organization after they selected him with the 13th overall pick in the 2011 draft.
He broke into the majors in 2016 and became a fixture in the lineup. Known for his “aw shucks” demeanor and effervescent personality that endeared him to fans, Nimmo became a team spokesman of sorts and prominent leader in the clubhouse as his career progressed.
In his final season with the Mets, Nimmo hit .262 with career-highs of 25 home runs and 92 RBIs in 155 games. However, his defense had declined, prompting the Mets to seek roster flexibility as they looked to improve their run prevention.
This season, Nimmo is hitting .290 with four home runs and 12 RBIs for the Rangers.
