A Grand Mansion In Northville Goes Up For Auction
Over in Northville, a grand estate with a size of 16,000 square feet is all geared up to change hands, and it might come with a surprising price tag. This breathtaking European-style mansion, nicknamed “Castello Montebello,” could be someone’s dream home and surprisingly, the opening bid starts at a cool $1.5 million.
This enormous mansion was constructed in 2000 and housed by Dr. Thomas Prose. Not too long ago, it was priced at $4.9 million, quite a drop from its $14.5 million tag in 2015. But come August 26, this Northville gem will open for auction with a starting bid of just $1.5 million.
The current owner is keen on selling it off quickly. He’s hoping to pass on this architectural beauty to a new family to create their own memories and dreams.
Interesting to note, this extravagant property sits on the highest point in both Wayne and Washtenaw counties. Found at 590 Dubuar Street, it’s just a stone’s throw away from downtown Northville.
The mansion boasts of seven bedrooms, seven full bathrooms, and two half baths. There are even heated three-car and four-car garages, an elevator, and even a guard house. But the real treat lies in the mansion’s heart – a four-story free-floating staircase in the middle of a light-filled great room with sky-high ceilings.
If you thought that was it, you’re in for a surprise! The lower level of the property is designed specifically for unlimited entertainment with a stylish wet bar, comfortable booth-style seating, a game room, and even a workout room. You’ll also find a wine cellar and a 13-seat home theater designed after New York’s iconic Paramount Theatre.
This once-in-a-lifetime estate, touched up with perfect finishes and standing on a prime location can be a treasure for those who love luxury and exclusivity. The property has been maintained so brilliantly that it shows virtually no signs of its 24 years of existence!
The online auction will take place on August 26 at 9 a.m. The potential bidders won’t be left in the dark as they can preview the property from Friday, August 23 to Sunday, August 25. More information about the property can be found at www.interluxe.com/12574 .
