I wouldn't be surprised if Pôpa played an important role in that sale.

[nuts2you]

I know I just finished watching this to,

[Del]

I'm sure she's quite pleased that the house has finally sold. I imagine the next property she buys in Quebec will be much smaller.

In the news they said that everything inside the house was included in the price.I wonder if the buyer checked the bed in the guest room...

This house is just SO beautiful...!

Before, I had a hard time figuring out why Celine & Rene wanted to sell this house in the first place. I mean...yeah, they're never really in Montreal anymore but they had so many great memories there like Christmas in the snow with RC and then spending it at Le Mirage with the family, things like that you know? You would think that with the amount of money they have and make...they would be willing to at least keep that house.

But then I realized that the house is so out of place with their style now. Their Florida house has a black and white modern theme and so does their Las Vegas home, so I think they just wanted something simpler and smaller, so when they are in town in Montreal, they can just spend their time there and not have to worry about the upkeep of such a large piece of land and house.

 

The same goes for the Florida house.

 

I get so sad when I watch the video tour of the jupiter island house because it's just SOO GORGEOUS & ONE OF A KIND! They really built it for themselves and their family...so no one else deserves to or should live there in my opinion LOL. But I doubt they're ever really in Florida anymore and I imagine Celine would want to spend her time now in Montreal if she's not in Las Vegas.

 

I just wish maybe they could swap houses (move the jupiter island one to Vegas LMAO) If only...

[Angel2006]

Does anyone know anything about Celine selling her Vegas house?

 

Wasn't Celine going to sell her Vegas home because it was to small and Nelson and Eddy needed more room to run around and cool off when it's hot outside?

 

I remember reading that Celine was looking for a new property to build a new and bigger home in Vegas. Has anything come of this?

[nuts2you]

No she add on to make it larger for EDDIE, AND NELSON back in Aug 2011 when she was staying in Oprah penthouse in CP

No, they were definitely looking into buying a bigger house that had a larger interior space because of the hot Vegas summers. There were several articles that came out saying that she was looking for a house near "lake mead" or that she already bought land to build a new house. Maybe it's in the process of being built...if she's planning on making it her own just like the did with the Jupiter island home, it'll probably take some time lol.

 

Although, the articles came out before Rene got sick in 2013 so they probably put off plans or construction on the house since Rene got very ill or passed away.

[celinelover03]

Found the article!

 

http://lasvegassun.c...ome-lake-las-v/

 

This article came out October, 2013. Just two months before Rene and Celine found out about the cancer.

It says that construction had already started because it mentioned that Celine and Rene wanted to stay in their current home and not have it on the market until the new one was finished being built...and that it was supposed to be completed in 2 years (it's already 2016) so maybe it's almost done or because Rene got sick & passed away, it won't be ready for a while then?

 

I think it would be nice for Celine & the boys to move out into a new home that was designed for them and that Rene helped design while he was still here.

Thanks for the info. I wonder if we will be hearing of this house soon? I guess time will tell, but I appreciate you posting the article.

[anewdayhascome]

I will miss it.

[Angel2006]

I will miss this house aswell. I can remember when they first purchased the property and had the house built. They were so proud of it at the time and they made so many wonderful memories in it over the years. It's sad to see it go to someone else. Knowing how sentimental Celine is, it's sad that she let this house go.

 

Sometimes it's good to let go of certain things though. It's not good to keep everything in your life. Today I got rid of a bunch of old junk lying around in my house that I thought were important items in my life that I could never part with. I was shocked at the reaction I had when I finally decided to part with my items. The things I thought were special to me, turned out were not as special as I thought.

 

It felt very freeing to purge. It's like a breath of fresh air. You feel rejuvenated in a way. You can start fresh and create something new out of it. Selling off some real estate, I'm sure Celine will want to create something new all over again that better suits her lifestyle now.

 

I can't wait to see her next real estate purchase. It's always nice to see what Celine does with the interior of her homes. There all so different and lovely.

A found this article from 2015:

So it seems they have expanded the house so maybe they are not planning to sell it. I read somewhere they bought the house next to them for the twins as a "playground" but i can't find the article now.

Oh, that's interesting. Thanks for the article and info about the playground for the twins.

Actually, the lot next to them belongs to Linda. She lives there with her husband and their lot connects to Celine's lot so it's basically like one big house, but two different addresses. I think the house is under Celine's name, but I do know for a fact that Linda lives in that house with her husband. It has its own garage, driveway, etc. so they can have their own little home and have their own life basically, but still live with Celine and her kids so they can take care of them when she is away.

 

This may sound sort of creepy, but if you look Celine's house up on google maps from the satellite view (19 Rue Mediterra Drive. Henderson, NV) the house nextdoor has a lot of children's toys and things like that...so basically they just connected the two lots in one, so more playing room for the twins. Linda and her husband have always lived there and they had that extra backyard for RC when he was little too, as you can notice that Celine's pool takes up most of her own backyard.

Sorry, I was wrong really Linda lives in the house nextdoor now I remember it was in the article too. I read it about one year ago so I rememberd only about the expanding and the bigger playground. Anyway these are really detailed facts. Thanks a lot! :)

So... she sold it for $10m which basically just paid off the existing mortgage? (And since when does Sony Music hand out mortgages?!)

 

Sounds like a fire sale, no?

[Xpresso]

A mortgage from Sony Music Entertainment?? That's strange...

Maybe Sony had actually bought the house for them!

It could have been an advance on her contract.

[empress]

I loved the house in Laval. Definitely my style. But it makes me feel sad that the kids are not enjoying all that fun space in Florida. Maybe it is the memories of Rene and their time there that are a little bittersweet. Still. I wish she would keep it and the kids could enjoy it. Her home in Las Vegas is super small (relatively). Even with the addition. Oh well, time moves on and Celine is doing very well moving along. It has to be terribly hard.

[scielle]

I wonder why they decided to sell that place, especially since it wasn't exactly a windfall.

I understand Florida - it's massive, super expensive to maintain, she's never there, etc. But Quebec is home. She'll always have reason to visit even if she doesn't move back permanently for some time. Most of her family live in Laval and Repentigny, right? It seems odd for her to not have a place there (that we know of, anyway).

I believe I've read before 3 things: 1) They do not need so many houses as they have now 2) They planned to buy or build another house (less than this in Laval) 3) This house wasn't in good condition so they wanted to sell it.

I think when Celine's Vegas contract will be over, she will buy a small house in Quebec and in Florida as well.
