Michael Jordan has purchased two top-floor penthouses, which he'll combine and then install a private elevator.

Jordan purchased the property in Charlotte last week for $3.15 million, according to the Charlotte Observer.

"Hotel life is starting to get a little tiresome," Jordan told the newspaper. "I need to start planting some roots. I need a place where I can bring a bunch of my clothes. There's nothing like having your own place to relax."

Jordan's new home is about two blocks from Time Warner Cable Arena.
