Absurd Vancouver Property of the Week (July 25, 2012)
The mobster, the sexy lawn boy and the princess…what do these three have in common? Homes worth $2.2 million dollars, it would seem.
Formerly owned by infamous gangster, Agostino Cuntrera, this Laval, Montreal home is a luxurious residence with wood panelling, marble walls and ceilings, quartz countertops, imported Italian chandeliers and hardwood floors.
The house is protected by a security system with cameras to keep “pesky intruders” at bay.
Lawn boy, Jesse Metcalfe (heart throb of Desperate Housewives fame) recently put his Beverly Hills home on the market for $2.2 million:
Metcalfe’s 2000 square foot home includes an elevated hot tub right above a waterfall that looks down at a breath-taking view of the house and backyard…unfortunately, Jesse doesn’t come around to trim the hedges (Boo!).
Cinderella herself would not be able to resist living here. Fit for a princess, this castle in Burgundy, France is listed for 1.79 million euros ($2.2 million CDN).
The castle is located on a platform surrounded by moats with a drawbridge. It has over 10 bedrooms (5 of which have their own ensuites), an entire service floor, a wine cellar, a movie theatre…the list goes on and on.
And back in Lotus Land, you can buy this beauty:
Looks like there have been a few upgrades to bring this charmer up to snuff. I particularly like the brown and mustard yellow paint combination…very stylish. The front lawn could use a little Jesse Metcalfe love, however.
Vancouver…are you f*#@ing kidding me?
