Roger Federer’s $8.1M mansion: Why did he build a new Lake Zurich home?

Roger Federer’s former Wollerau home near Lake Zurich was one of his most striking properties, but the Swiss tennis great eventually put the glass residence on the market as his plans changed. The three-story home, known as “The Residence,” covered about 500 square metres and included large glass walls, balconies, a pool and underground parking. Federer reportedly listed the property for 5.4 million Swiss francs, about $5.3 million, in 2017. It was sold the following year. By then, Federer had already moved his Swiss base to Valbella and was looking toward a much larger waterfront project in Rapperswil-Jona.What did Roger Federer’s $8.1 million Wollerau glass mansion includeFederer’s Wollerau home stood in the canton of Schwyz, on the shores of Lake Zurich.
