The home once owned by former Seattle Sonic Kevin Durant has sold, pending inspection.

The house, located in the 3400 block of 74th Avenue S.E. on First Hill, was originally listed in 2011 for $2.99 million and was built in 2005.

The property features a 5,910-square-foot home with five bedrooms and five and a half baths on a .35 acre lot.

According to the Northwest MLS, before the current offer there have been two other pending offers, in May 2011 and June 2011, but both fell through.

The property, listed with Vizor Realty in Kirkland, was taken off the market in July 2011 and was relisted in January 2012 for a lower price of $2.79 million. The price changed again in October 2012 to $2.59 million.

Durant bought the home in 2007, and lived there for just a few months before the Sonics were sold and moved to Oklahoma City.
