Hockey star wants $18M for massive Jersey mansion

Russian-born hockey star Ilya Kovalchuk is about to list his custom-built dream mansion at 10 Frick Drive in Alpine, NJ, for $17.99 million.

Kovalchuk is now with the NHL’s Los Angeles Kings. The left wing formerly played for the New Jersey Devils from 2010 to 2013. In 2010, alongside his wife, Russian singer Nicole Andrazajtis, he bought a 2-acre piece of land for $4.5 million and built this house. But in 2013, Kovalchuk left the NHL and repatriated to Russia to play hockey.

He returned stateside last year to play for LA.

The 22,000-square-foot mansion with a stucco and limestone exterior includes four turrets and a slate roof with leaded copper gutters. Inside, the eight-bedroom home — which additionally features 11 bathrooms and three half baths, plenty of room for the couple’s four children — has a formal living room and a “banquet-size” dining room.





There’s also a great room, a bar and a family room — along with a chef’s kitchen, a separate “prep” kitchen, a walk-in pantry, a butler’s pantry and a wine closet.

Not shy on amenities, the home also has a finished basement with a lounge, a theater, a bar, a plunge pool, a massage room, an exercise room, a sauna, an arts-and-crafts room and a one-bedroom guest suite.

Outside, there’s another kitchen and bar and landscaped gardens.

The listing broker is Michelle Pais, of Signature Realty NJ.
