Could the Seminole Boosters buy legendary coach Bobby Bowden's home?
Bobby Bowden's Killearn Estates home could be sold to Seminole Boosters to preserve its FSU history.
Reagan Hobbs, a Florida State University alumnus and Tallahassee real estate agent, is in talks to sell Bobby Bowden's former home to Seminole Boosters, Inc. Hobbs, a dedicated FSU fan and Boosters member, believes the property could maintain its connection to the university following Bowden's passing in 2021. The 4,639-square-foot residence, featuring four bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, and located on a 0.57-acre lot, has significant historical value.
It was purchased by Bowden and his wife Ann in 1976 for $113,500 and remained their home until Bowden's death. Hobbs acquired the house at auction in March 2022 for $737,000 after a two-week sale that attracted the enthusiastic interest of Seminole fans and memorabilia collectors. If the sale goes through, the Bowden home could become a valuable resource for home games and symbolically represent the Seminole community long after Bowden's legacy.
