Novak Djokovic Career: A stunning penthouse overlooking Lake Pavlova

Thanks to his tennis career, Djokovic has owned several properties worldwide. He first purchased a quaint Monte Carlo residence for an undisclosed fee shortly after turning pro in 2003. While much remains unknown about the abode, it is said to be on a hill overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.

The player also purchased two properties in New York City’s SoHo area in 2017 for a reported fee of more than $10 million (£7.6m), a $5.77 million (£4.4m) penthouse in Miami, and a $10million (£7.6m) Moroccan-style property in Marbella in 2020. However, his retirement home comes in the form of a humble penthouse apartment, which overlooks the stunning Lake Pavlova.

Djokovic picked up the apartment for just £518,000 in 2018, although it is understood that the pro has spent money modernizing the three-bed pad in his home nation. The property also boasts three bathrooms and an en-suite, as well as a large living area – while it also comes complete with a stunning terrace and a swimming pool

Nearby, the tennis star also has the famous Restaurant Novak, which was opened by his parents. Jam-packed with memorabilia from his illustrious career, from photos to tennis balls and even trophies, the swanky eatery pays homage to some of Djokovic’s greatest feats.

There’s also the Novak Tennis Center which was constructed in 2009, playing host to 14 courts in total for both locals and tourists to make the most of. Djokovic also has a lot of love for Belgrade in general, having received a hero’s welcome from fans in their thousands of gatherings to congratulate his win at this year’s Olympic Games.

Speaking to the crowd alongside his fellow compatriots from the City Hall, he said: “I have had the honour and pleasure of being on this special balcony several times in my career, but each time you surprise and inspire me more and more. This is the most beautiful feeling that an athlete from Serbia can experience.”
