If you build it, they will come? This mansion literally comes with its own baseball diamond. 

If you've ever wanted to live like a pro athlete, here's your chance! 

Walt Weiss, former Rockies shortstop and manager, has put his mansion on the market, and it's got everything you need to live the high life. You could say this property is a "diamond in the rough," but there is nothing rough about it (except maybe some of the foothills acreage).

"This home is a destination: enjoy the tranquil drive through Castlewood Canyon with beautiful scenery that changes through the seasons," says realtor.com.

Boasting a $2M price tag, the 10,668-square-foot home has six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, and a floor-to-ceiling window wall in the living room. Of course, it comes with a huge kitchen to handle entertaining and more. 

"The chef's kitchen is the heart of the home, boasting stainless double ovens, refrigerator, two sub-zero freezer drawers, and two Bosch dishwashers. Beautiful tile backsplash complements the heated limestone countertops and radiant heat stone floors," says the listing.

The house sits on 35 acres, which is also home to a baseball diamond in the front yard and a pool. There is also a basement rec room complete with a batting cage on the property, as well as a large basketball court. 

If you want to just relax and enjoy the mountain views, the pool is heated and there is a hot tub. The master suite also has its own steam shower, jetted tub, and walk-in closets.
