He's owner of a pro sports franchise. Mario Lemieux, sans formal High School grad is a very smart dude. He surrounded himself, even as a young teen with money guys and businessmen and learned how to invest money. He is an incredible success, so much different than most athletes, he is about as far from the "dumb jock" moniker as there is.
Just think of the taxes and the amount gas and electric needed..
I was going to buy it, but that house isn't worth a dime over $21,999,000.
imagine furnishing that? Not just beds but dressers, mirrors, pictures, youd spend a whole day just looking for throw pillows for the spare bedrooms.
Screw that noise,
EDIT: I just looked at the story, I want that house. not even the house, just the backyard.. fire pit, overlooking a lake. I could do that..
Mr. 27, make an offer for the backyard. You never know, he just might take your offer.
It does look like a wonderful house and property. The only issue is location. I've been to Montreal and to Quebec. The article states that the house is north of Montreal. There is NOTHING north of Montreal. Quebec city is as far east as it is north of Montreal, so I don't suppose it's near there. One would need to fly a helicopter to get groceries so that the ice cream didn't melt.
Plus, it would be accessible at best for four months a year.
I had new house built a couple of years ago and the blinds for 26 windows about did me in.
If it cost $20M to construct, like it says, he is most definitely going to lose money by selling it furnished.
lol, good point. seriously, im not one of these people that dream of a big house, im really not but some of these pics are sick. I love this style house, it looks like something out of the godfather with one of these mafia fortresses.. That back deck overlooking the lake is sick..
I wonder seriously about bugs in summer. I'd go fishing with my brothers and dad in Canada. We'd go about 10+ hours north of Toronto (think it was Ontario province, im horrible with Canadian geography) and get a boat and go out on the lakes and you'd have to be covered, head to toe or bugs would eat you alive. Im talking tape up sleeves, tape up ankles, net over your head and you'd still be eaten up.
After a week of fishing, my body looked like it had chicken pox from head to toe from the bites.. those woods and lakes up there in Canada are so thick, you'd have to wonder if that is a legit problem. But yeah, I'd still take it..
Don't I know about the mosquitoes. I'm that one guy in a crowd of 500 that gets mosquito bites when no one else gets 'em. I've tried practically every product that's available, but nothing prevents the mosquitoes from using me as their buffet table.
I'm guessing a moat around a castle in Canada wouldn't work too well when one could skate across it eight months a year.
To some people that would be the draw. It does look beautiful though.
Plus, he never flaunts any of it. He is understated, lives a conservative life style and does wonderful philanthropic projects that benefit so many people. He is a gentleman and very classy.
Yeah, he is almost, I dunno.....like he is Royalty with his lifestyle and class.
True. Also I'm sure it takes a sizeable staff to keep that place running, and one of them would be responsible for running the errands like grocery shopping.
Mowing; snow removal; bringing firewood (after it's been cut, stacked, and seasoned) into the house for the 473 fire places; house cleaning; chef's duties; house and property maintenance; etc...
is canada real estate expensive with the 9 month winters?
that house in california would be like 50 million
