A sprawling Massachusetts mansion that was the site of a gruesome murder-suicide has gone on the market for $4.2 million—with the property listing describing it as a “perfect family home.”

The 11-bedroom, 11.5-bathroom property in Dover, MA, was put on the market earlier this week, just eight months after its former owner, businessman Rakesh “Rick” Kamal, fatally shot his wife and their teenage daughter before turning the gun on himself.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the listing makes no mention of the property’s chilling history, instead focusing on the home’s many amenities and its picturesque surroundings.

“This home is seamlessly integrated into the idyllic, manicured grounds overlooking wooded hiking paths, bridle trails, and a tranquil pond in the extremely desirable Wilsons Way neighborhood,” it reads.

The description goes on to call attention to the mansion’s four-car garage, formal and informal dining rooms, newly renovated gourmet kitchen, library, and marble-topped wet bar.

“A perfect family home, this property offers a 14-seat home theater, relaxing family room with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, 20X40 indoor pool, fully-equipped gym, sauna with a steam shower, extensive storage, and 5, 000 bottle wine cellar,” the listing adds.

The 27-room home, which was built in 2000, was purchased by Kamal and his wife, Teena, for $4 million in 2019, according to multiple reports.

On Dec. 28, 2023, just three days after Christmas, the businessman fatally shot his 54-year-old spouse and their 18-year-old daughter, Arianna, before killing himself.

Earlier this month, it emerged that the family—who appeared to the outside world as living an incredibly lavish and privileged lifestyle—had been buried in debt and were facing eviction from the property on the day of their deaths.

It is understood that Kamal’s younger sibling, Manoj Kamal, told police that his older brother owed him $150,000, the Boston Globe reported, and that the businessman had recently lost his home to foreclosure after failing to keep up with mortgage payments.

The outlet states that Kamal took out a $3.8 million loan on the home, which was meant to have been repaid by 2021.

Kamal reportedly left a note for the person who had been scheduled to pick up the keys, according to Fox News, informing them that they should “call the police” before entering the property.

He also noted that he had marked each of the bedrooms in which the bodies could be found with a sheet of paper.

“Please note,” the message read. “Before entering call the Police to first check three bedrooms on the second floor. Each room will be marked by a white sheet of paper.”
