His career moved to the West Coast after he was fired by the New Jersey Devils in 2014, but former head coach Peter DeBoer is just now putting his 3,023-square-foot Madison home on the market for $1.27 million.

The listing was first reported by Realtor.com. The home officially went on the market Oct. 2.

DeBoer, now the head coach for the San Jose Sharks, bought the home, which was built in 2008 and has four bedrooms and four-and-a-half bathrooms, in 2011 for just over $1 million, shortly after he was hired by the Devils.

DeBoer went 114-93-25 during his tenure as the Devils coach.

While DeBoer accepted the head coaching job from the Sharks in May 2015, his family made a decision to stay behind in their Colonial-style home in the Morris County borough.

With three teenage children, DeBoer and his wife, Sue, decided it was best for the children that they continue their adolescent years in the New Jersey home and not be uprooted to California, according to a New York Times story published in February.

"It's funny, their lives really don't change," DeBoer told The Times. "They're living in the same house, with the same friends. The only difference is I'm not there. For me, it's been a dramatic change. You come home from work and you're used to your wife and three kids and that daily busyness and connection. And you don't have that anymore."

But the family did admit then, they weren't sure how much longer they would be in the Madison home.

"We're just going to kind of play it by ear and watch it unfold," Sue DeBoer said. "There's no script to it."

It appears the DeBoers intend to move on from New Jersey now that the home has hit the market.

Before listing it, the DeBoers put some work into the home. Their realtor, Kristin Winter of Coldwell Banker, told Realtor.com, that the family finished the third floor, which could be used as an office, additional family room, or fifth bedroom, and the basement, which has a full bathroom and "lots of storage options."

The home also has a fenced-in, private backyard, and is located close to schools, the center of town, shopping and transportation, according to its listing. (DeBoer even took NJ Transit from Madison into Manhattan when the Sharks played the New York Rangers and New York Islanders last November, according to The Times.)

Property taxes for the home were $18,754 in 2017.
