Paul Westphal, the decorated professional basketball player and former NBA coach, has sold his longtime home in Palos Verdes Estates for $3.4 million.

The hacienda-style house, built in 1958, came up for sale in late February and had an offer in hand in about two weeks. Westphal paid $1.49 million for the roughly half-acre property in 2004, property records show.

Set above the street, the 4,500-square-foot home features a rotunda entry, beamed ceilings and stone and hardwood floors. Living spaces include an updated kitchen, an office, four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. An attached casita has additional quarters.

Various patios and sitting areas extend the living space outdoors. Mature trees, lush landscaping, an outdoor fireplace and a spa complete the setting.

As a head coach, Westphal led Phoenix to the NBA Finals in 1993. He also coached the Seattle SuperSonics and Sacramento Kings. More recently he spent three seasons as the top assistant to Lionel Hollins and the Brooklyn Nets.
