Well, that was fast.<\/p>\n

Bill Gates<\/strong><\/a> has accepted an offer less than two weeks after listing a midcentury modern home in Medina, WA<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The residence, which is just down the street from the Microsoft co-founder\u2019s famed Xanadu mansion, was listed on March 29 for $4,988,800. The sale price has not been released.<\/p>\n

Gates, who\u2019s worth a reported $131 billion, picked up the property in April 2003 for $1,310,000.<\/p>\n

The current list price breaks down to $2,053 per square foot for the relatively modest 2,430-square-foot home. Homes in the ultradesirable 98039 ZIP code<\/a>\u00a0have a median price per square foot of $1,400.<\/p>\n

Of the 25 homes currently for sale in this ZIP code, a brand-new mansion just a couple of blocks away is listed for $23 million<\/a>, or $2,476 per square foot. This means Gates and listing agent Debbie Walter\u00a0<\/strong>priced his midcentury home just right, as evidenced by the speedy offer.<\/p>\n

As we reported a few days ago<\/a>, the waterfront home enjoys lovely views of Lake Washington from nearly every room.<\/p>\n

The four-bedroom residence comes with private beach access as well as a Zen garden. Built in 1954, it features the clean lines and abundant windows you\u2019d expect in a classic midcentury home.<\/p>\n
