Michigan Mansion, Most Expensive On The List Has A Bigger Story To Tell

Michigan's most expensive house has a very interesting history and story. Realtor recently published an article showcasing the most expensive house in Michigan, but what's more interesting about the article is the story and history of the most expensive mansion. The owner of the expensive house is Dr. Thomas Prose, but simply owning a 16,000 square foot brick mansion is not enough for the doctor. In 2004, Prose deeded his Northville Michigan property to the Czech government and set it up briefly as a consulate for the Czech Republic.

Now, the former rough Czech consulate mansion is listed at $14.5 million.

At the point when the Prague Post secured the political shenanigans encompassing the home in 2005, the chateau was said to be esteemed at $4.3 million. The $10 million hop in worth over the previous decade is generally equivalent to the whole Czech Republic populace of 10.5 million. 

According to Fox News, the Prague Post specified Prose began the Michigan office on the condition that the property also called Castello Montebello would return back to his possession in 2010. Why was he keen on helping the wayward Czechs? The article asserted Prose needed to abstain from paying property taxes on his house.

The home's entrancing backstory appears to be shrouded in a cover of a post-Cold War mystery, yet we figured out how to search for the fine subtle elements. The 22-room house sits on more than 6 sections of land area and accompanies all the standard extravagance accessories - a full theater with velvet-secured seats, a piano room, and a wine basement that you enter through an old bank vault entryway.

The home was listed since 2004 but the price did not budge even for a single cent.
