Godfather Home Finally Gets an Offer!
Godfather Home Finally Gets an Offer!
Must SeeTop 10 Florida Condos For SaleWe first told you about this great home in January 2011. Six months later it was still on the market and we reminded you that it wouldn’t last. We’re very happy to report that it has now found a new owner to love it and take care of it the way it deserves. What a great house and fascinating history. But don’t feel too bad that you missed it. If you feel the need to get in touch once in awhile, just pull out your DVD of The Godfather and look at it as many times as you want. Watch the wedding party scene and imagine the parties the new owners will have, or the kitchen and wonder if the new owner will be making Sunday gravy too.
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 to bring loved ones together. Could anyone forget the wedding celebration 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 four car attached garage. The Corleone house reflects the expectation of stability in which one would be proud to raise their family.
A beautiful conversation piece, the Corleone Staten Island Compound was listed at $2.9m and recently sold for $1.687m. When they said, "No reasonable offer refused!", they meant it!
