Godfather Home Still Available!
Godfather Home Still Available!
It's hard to connect with the fact that this wonderful home is still available and the seller is now accepting all reasonable offers even after a significant price cut! When we told you about this charming home back in January, it was listed at $2.9m. After receiving a price cut, the listing price is down to $2.25m, though sellers are now entertaining all offers and will accept their definition of "reasonable".
This is a true family home built to endure generations of children running down the stairwells, and squealing with pleasure as they romp across the lawn absorbed in the game of the moment. It's a house where large gatherings are memorable, whether weddings, barbeques, swim parties or New Year's Eve champagne toasts in the warmth of a roaring fire. Could anyone forget the wedding in the opening scenes of the movie?
Built in 1930 in the Tudor style of stucco, stone and wood, the house sits on just over a half acre of manicured lawns, stone walls and plenty of parking. At 6,248sf, there are 8 bedrooms and 5 baths, perfect for a large family to spread out and not get under each other's feet. In addition to the main rooms, the house also has a full finished basement, an in-ground pool and a 4 car attached garage. When watching the movie the first time, we recall the fascination of seeing how that part of society lived their daily lives around their terrifying business activities. We can remember the rooms as though we saw them yesterday and thought at the time, "So this is how they lived!" When this house was built, the population still believed in achieving the gold watch and living in the same house all their lives. The Corleone house reflects that expectation of stability in which one would be proud to raise their family.
A beautiful conversation piece, the Corleone Staten Island Compound was $2,900,000 now $2,250,000. No reasonable offer refused!
