Dio's home is for sale! Here's what we think didn't make the real estate listing
A mansion once occupied by the late, great Ronnie James Dio, who passed away earlier this year, is up for sale, and it's just barely out of our price range at a mere $3,333,000! Based on the pictures that accompany the listing, it looks like quite the spread. While a few perks, such as the full-blown studio in the basement are detailed in the listing, we can't help but wonder what other mysteries await for the future owner of the ![]()
castle home. We'd like to think that Dio might have hidden some totally awesome sculptures, secret rooms and altars deep inside his personal lair. After the break you'll find the things that we think were left out of the listing.
Possible hidden trumpet collection: It's rumored the previous owner started playing the trumpet at a young age, and we must say, the lovingly crafted cathedral-style vault ceilings make for excellent brass instrument acoustics. We're told this owner was also often referred to as a "metal-god," so he may have hid the instruments when guests came over. When you purchase this home you'll not only be privy to its old-world charm and self-cleaning oven, you'll also have a chance to play detective and search for these illusive instruments.
A gigantic rainbow: The previous owner was in a band who had several large set-pieces, many of which he saved as keepsakes of his time with many different rock and roll acts. Spread throughout the home you can find pieces of a massive rainbow embedded in the grains of the luxurious miles of imported wood.
