![Joe Pesci's New Jersey mansion is also a Joe Pesci museum](https://img.pastemagazine.com/wp-content/avuploads/2021/02/15035416/deme0rsqa5pwpeqzdyqc.jpg)
While Joe Pesci’s Lavallette, New Jersey, mansion has already been on the market for a couple years, photos from its Zillow listing (ahh, Zillow: the gift that keeps on giving) are only just now making the internet rounds. At first glance, the home pretty much resembles how one would imagine a $6.5 million New Jersey abode still taking offers a full two years after its initial listing: all white everything, spiral staircase, gaudy accent furniture, etc. It only takes a few photos, however, to realize that this isn’t just Joe Pesci’s house, it’s a shrine to all things Pesci. It’s glorious.
Perhaps one room decorated with your acting career’s awards and memorabilia would be enough for some thespians, but this is Joe Pesci we’re talking about here. What you see before you is an 8-bed, 8-bath, 7,200 square-foot Joe Pesci shrine, complete with Gone Fishin’ posters, framed black-and-white Raging Bull press photos, and what appears to be a Pesci meme blown up to wall art size. There’s also an antique barber’s chair in there, because of course Joe Pesci is the kind of guy who orders fancy, in-house hair and shave appointments.
Unfortunately, we doubt the listing offer includes all the interior decorations, so your nearly $7 million price tag will probably need to factor in new furniture and artwork. That said, if you can afford a $7 million mansion, you can probably cough up a little extra for that Lethal Weapon 3 pinball machine.

I assume the Lethal Weapon 3 pinball machine is more about his Cop Land fandom.
That’s one way to tell everyone you’re conceited.
When you say “Joe Pesci’s living room”, “pinball machine” is not one of the first things to come to mind.
Pinball wizards come in all shapes and sizes! In his case, very short and very stout
fair enough
That’s pretty funny.
If you ignore the Pesci stuff and the massive square footage, it looks like the Panama City Beach condo of my divorced aunt circa 1985.
As bizarre as this looks, it’s still less unsettling than Dr. Phil’s $5M Beverly Hills mansion, complete with wall-mounted machine guns, Star Wars hieroglyphics, and HR Giger inspired staircase.
That is a low bar indeed.
Not gonna lie, if I was an actor that successful, my mansion would look like that too!
Where does he keep his fuckin’ shinebox?
Came here for this. Was not disappointed (except that I didn’t post it first).
Too bad they never made an “8 Heads In A Duffel Bag” pinball game. The 8-ball multiball is RIGHT THERE.
Guys, I looked it up. This isn’t Joe Pesci’s house. It’s the guy who tried to kill Joe Pesci’s house.
Joe, I love you, but what the fuck is going on with that facial hair?
With just a different set of glasses he could be a character in an Ennio Morricone spaghetti western movie. It’d be perfect, he could even keep the hat! 😉
Pesci was the worst thing about LW3 and 4. I don’t understand why Donner and Co. felt the need to keep him on board. It barely worked for LW2 as he was almost too much there.
The only thing I can think of seeing all this is how fucking classless and tacky literally everything is. Even the exterior of the mansion itself looks more like an office building or a hotel/movie theatre lobby than a home. Yech.I just can’t imagine decorating my home by putting myself EVERYWHERE, no matter how influential or successful I was.
