WFCN – Ever had the desire to live in Tony Soprano’s world? Here is your opportunity.
The fictitious mob leader on HBO’s “The Sopranos” dug up the yard of a historic Newark home in an attempt to reclaim $40,000, and it’s on the market. For just $579,900, you can have it all.
As the residence of Corrado John “Junior” Soprano Jr., popularly known as Uncle Junior, in several episodes of the popular series, this Essex County property was a star in and of itself.
The house has 3,000 square feet or so of space.
