The Panthers hired Reich in late January and he quickly dialed in and snagged a house in North Carolina. Reich paid $3.45 million for the place in early March, giving him plenty of lead time for the draft and subsequent minicamp.

The four-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom home is located in the affluent Foxcroft neighbourhood on Charlotte's south side. This charming home has elegant lines from the inside out.

Local architect Greg Perry designed a classic exterior that begins with an all-glass front door that leads to a bluestone entry. Nearby, the dining room has a wall-mounted wine storage space.

In the kitchen, there is a huge four-seater island overlooking the spacious living room.

Bespoke built-ins, a masonry fireplace and a layout that takes advantage of the area's pleasant climate are just some of the property's amenities.

Smart home automation controls the curtains, while an outdoor WiFi hotspot makes working on the patio a breeze.

If the coach chooses to go electric at some point, a convenient charging station is set up in the garage.

A gorgeous master suite has glass doors that open to the fully equipped backyard with a fire pit, covered patio and screened-in porch to maximise the family's relaxation potential.

High ceilings, fresh white paint, and a nearly acre lot make this home almost turnkey for the coach.
