Room for a 50 ft yacht.
I am now sitting in the shadow of the Dolomites, sun setting, having completed a travel journey from Mother Ginger to Cortina in a record setting run. Draped in Moncler, feeling that cold mountain air, ready to ride. Oh, you’ll see my WHOOP numbers documenting the 30-hour sprint soon but in the meantime, former Huntington Beach Mayor Pro Tempore, and mixed martial arts legend, Tito Ortiz is selling his Huntington Harbour home, ahead of Christmas, for the low low price of 6 million United States dollars (adjusted for inflation).
Built on Davenport Island in 2006, the 3,887-square-foot waterfront house has four bedrooms and four bathrooms. It backs onto a 50-foot dock with room for a yacht and a Duffy. Ortiz, a popular mixed martial arts fighter turned politician, bought the Tuscan-inspired house with its stone and stucco exterior, Spanish tile roof, arched doorways, and stone balustrades in 2008 for $3.25 million, property records show. He shared it at the time with ex-adult film star Jenna Jameson, the mother of his twin sons.
Features include a wood-paneled office just off the entry. A formal dining room with built-in china cabinets connects to a 300-bottle, temperature-controlled wine cellar with a rolling library ladder.
A fireplace warms the family room, opening the gourmet kitchen equipped with high-end appliances.
The interior boasts hand-laid limestone, wrought iron railings and custom woodwork.
Just off the primary suite is a harbor view patio. A see-through fireplace separates the primary bedroom from the bathroom, with its oversized soaking tub. Two walk-in closets add to the perks.
Nice.
Did you know, though, that Cortina was site of one of the most famous World War I battles ever? A high altitude trench war where the Italians fought the Austro-Hungarians along the Lagazuoi Front?
I’m surprised “Lagazuoi Front” never became a surf-adjacent neo-punk outfit.

Imagine writing an article and being so self consumed you had to make the opening paragraph about yourself lmfao lamest thing ive ever read like ever
This article started with and unexpected narcissistic twist and ended with historical flair. Confusing AF… Imagine having this conversation in person… Such a Chas move…
Might wanna use a BLACK LIGHT and check everywhere for ya know!?..
Ewwwwwww..c ya!
Maybe if I read the article… or I did but wasn’t paying attention.
‘Hand-laid limestone’
As opposed to some fuckin’ octopus slappin’ em down with it’s tentacles?
Or a rather talented porn flooring specialist using his testicles?
Or some fucking’ giant mutant carbon sequestering chicken which squats-out custom paving slabs by the metre (‘cloaca-laid’)?
That’s like my house with it’s hand-laid lumber.
All i could retain from this was
Jenna Jameson
Yeah, she hasn’t aged too well. Take a pass on that.
Was aging well ever even a possibility?
Can a house catch STD’s ?
Standard Tax Deductions?
Yes.
File this under : Nobody Fuckin Cares.
