The mansion considered the most expensive in Brazil began being demolished in Leblon and the process is expected to last three months. The property sits on an 11,500 square meter lot and features 15 parking spaces, living and dining rooms, a paralympic pool, music studio, library, and leisure area with a barbecue grill.
In addition to the main residence, the property also has a two-story dollhouse, built with the same finish as the mansion, which was used for the recreation of the family's children and even has its own suite. Another annex housed 46 employees of the family.
The main residence was built 46 years ago in the English style and belonged to the Amaral family, former owners of the Disco supermarket chain, which once had more than 50 stores in Brazilian cities.
On the lot, the high-end residential complex Estância Pernambuco will be built, with ten houses, where each lot costs R$ 23 thousand.
