For Sale: QB Joe Montana’s wine country villa

www.zillow.com

The bargains just keep piling up in wine country real estate.

As you know, the Mondavi mansion recently sold for a sum that was undisclosed but was less than the asking price of $13.9, which itself was almost half off the original sticker price of $25 million.

And now, Villa Montana, home of NFL great Joe Montana has been reduced from $49 million to $35 million. (That initial asking price seems to indicate a bit of a trend by the former San Francisco 49er quarterback. A wine he makes with the Sbragia family sells for $149 .)

Details of the property are included in this story from the Napa Valley Register about a number of high-end properties that are on the market right now.

So, what do you get for $35 mill?

How about a stable with 17 stalls, a 9,700-square foot mansion with a moat, a skeet shooting range, an olive tree farm and a bocce ball court?

In addition to all the outside accoutrements. the buyer of the 500-acre estate will get a three-bedroom home, kitchen with green Italian marble countertops, wooden-beamed ceilings and carved fireplaces.

Zillow.com has pictures.

This is so making me realize we need a moat around our Berkeley palace. And I do mean something more stylish than the small lake that forms in the basement when it rains and/or the antique plumbing fails.

Cheers.
