Sale of Karel Gott’s villa in Jevany

To life Karl Gott undoubtedly belong to two houses, i.e. rather villas – the first in Jevany and the second in Bertramka. He lived the last 45 years on Bertramka, which after his death is to become a museum, a kind of memory of the singer. Ivan’s widow in addition, she said that she and her daughters decided to open it to the public so that the singer’s fans could see how he lived here in the years 1974-2019. She would like to follow up on the fact that Karel Gott himself liked to invite his supporters to the villa from time to time. His name is also associated with a villa in Jevany, which appeared in the offer of real estate agency Svoboda & Williams. According to its website, it already has a new owner.

Even though the villa in Jevany was to become a museum of Karel Gott, it was apparently not a house that was particularly close to his heart. The First Republic villa, which had already been built by the manufacturer Alois Köpell in 1930, was bought by the singer from his parents in 1969. He himself reportedly went there only sporadically, and when his parents died (mother in 1977 and father in 1982), the house was still After the reconstruction, it was empty for a long time and the singer tried to sell it for many years. At the time, a report appeared in the tabloids that it was said to have been secretly bought by Prague moneylender Miroslav Provod, associated with entrepreneur František Mrázek. The purchase price also appeared in public – 170 thousand marks, which was about 3.5 million crowns at the time, an astronomical sum at that time. In the cadastre, however, the owner still remained Karel Gott, who sold the villa to the state-owned company Narex for 6.1 million crowns in 1988. After the revolution, however, this transaction was annulled by a court, and Karel Gott bought the villa back. He definitively sold it only in 2005 to businessman Moťovské – for 11 million crowns. The businessman intended to make Gottland, i.e. a museum of the famous singer, in the villa.

Jan Moťovský had big plans for the villa. He embarked on the reconstruction and its rebuilding into the Gottland Museum, but it only operated for three years, from 2006-2009. After Moťovský’s sudden and questionable death was closed and the businessman’s widow sold the house in 2011 for 22 million already in a state where it was beginning to deteriorate. Unfortunately, the new owner of the villa did not benefit in any way and nothing happened in it for years before it underwent another reconstruction. The next owner was supposed to sell it in 2019 for 30 million. The price for which the real estate agency was currently offering it is not known. But come and walk through it with us.
