The True Story Of Scarface
They Both Lived In Mansions
Capone bought his mansion in Palm Springs, Florida, in 1928 for $40,000. It was designed in the Art Deco style and was located 1,300 miles from his business hub in Chicago. In 2015, the California estate where scenes from Scarface were filmed, sold for $12.26 million. The 10,000-square-foot home has four bedrooms. Architect Bertram Goodhue designed it in the early 1900s. It was inspired by Italy and the Middle East. The dining room has a domed ceiling covered in 24-karat gold leaf. The property is covered in gardens and fountains, and the backyard (where the wedding scene took place), has several patios and reflecting pools.
