The 5-acre Dover estate that was the site of a tragic murder-suicide last year is now up for sale. The lavish property at 10 Wilson’s Way is on the market for $4.2 million, according to a Zillow listing posted Monday.
It was previously owned by Teena and Rakesh “Rick” Kamal, who lost it in foreclosure after failing to make mortgage payments. A few days after Christmas last year, when the family was due to move out, Rick Kamal shot and killed his wife and his teenage daughter Arianna in their bedrooms, before turning the gun on himself, according to police reports . The listing describes the Colonial-style mansion as a “perfect family home,” with luxurious amenities including a gym, sauna, home theater, and a four-car garage.
The estate is “seamlessly integrated” into the “extremely desirable” neighborhood of Wilson’s Way, according to the listing. Two open houses are scheduled this weekend. Advertisement The Kamals bought the 21-bedroom, 19,000-square-foot mansion on Valentine’s Day in 2019 for $4 million.
The entrance to the property was adorned with a pair of lion statues and placards bearing the family name in gold. The property was previously assessed at $6.79 million, according to Dover town records .
The mortgage on the property — a $3.8 million loan initially set to be paid in 2021 — became a major factor in Rick Kamal’s financial issues that authorities believe spiraled into the grisly murder-suicide. Authorities who investigated the murder-suicide concluded that Rick Kamal’s wife, daughter, and extended family were not aware of the extent of his financial issues.
In fact, some in his family even believed he was on the verge of buying another house, a $16.5 million lakefront property in Tennessee. Thousands of items from the property, including furniture, oil paintings, and even a $3,400 pinball machine, were put up for auction in July, according to an online listing .
