Own a piece of American cinematic history for the price of $2.89 million. The Staten Island home used for the exterior shots of the estate of Don Vito Corleone in Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather is up for sale.
Connie Profaci Realty based in New Dorp is handling the sale of the estate and said that the current owner made improvements to the home which includes making the interiors resemble the inside of the home as portrayed in the movie.
The 6,248-square-foot Tudor estate has five bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a gym, pool, playroom, a game room in the basement, and a gourmet kitchen that is "to die for," according to real estate agent Joseph Profaci.
The home was originally built in 1930 for Joseph Palma, former president of Staten Island Borough, and his wife and 11 children. In 1951, the mansion was sold to the Norton family who allowed the home to be used by Coppola as the setting for the Corleone family in the 1972 Godfather film.
