New York Yankees superstar Derek Jeter is building a behemoth of a mansion just a stone's throw from downtown Tampa.

Once completed, the seven-bedroom, nine-bathroom house on Davis Islands will be 30,875 square feet, according to Hillsborough County public records. To give you an idea of how big that is, the average Best Buy store is 39,700 square feet. That's also twice as big as the Bayshore Boulevard mansion of Lazydays RV SuperCenter founder Don Wallace. Hillsborough County's largest home now is in the Avila Golf & Country Club community. It's 28,295 square feet.

Kered Connors LLC, which lists Jeter as the "sole member," purchased adjacent waterfront lots on Davis Islands' Bahama Circle in 2005 and 2006. Kered Connors paid $7.7 million for the properties.

Jeter already has one million-dollar home in Tampa, at 17005 Candeleda De Avila.
