After five years off the air, Discovery Channel is reviving “American Chopper,” featuring a feuding father-son motorcycle-building team and their adventures in Orange County, NY.
As the show gears up for its March 1 relaunch, Paul Teutul Sr. (who stars alongside son Paul Teutul Jr.) has just slashed the price of his estate in the Orange County town of Montgomery from $2.89 million to $2.49 million.
Fans of the show will recognize the killer 38-acre estate at 95 Judson Road, some 70 miles from Manhattan, with a garage that has appeared in show segments. In the new show, Discovery notes, the father-son duo “set out to reclaim their preeminent bike brands and hopefully rebuild some sort of relationship … with A-list celebrities, world famous athletes and Forbes 100 businesses as clients.
“Millions of dollars and their brands’ reputations are on the line with every signature build.”
In the meantime, Teutul Sr. has reportedly revamped their showroom, Orange County Choppers, and turned it into a complex with a shop, a cafe, a bowling alley, a restaurant and a showroom.
The original “American Chopper” had a decade-long run that started in 2002 and was one of Discovery’s most popular shows, averaging 3.4 million viewers at its peak.
Teutul Sr.’s home is just as noteworthy.
It features a 3,448-square-foot main house, which was built in a log cabin style in 2004, and comes with three bedrooms. It features striking cathedral ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, a chef’s kitchen and a wraparound porch. Outside, there’s a pool with a waterslide, a pool house, a volleyball court and a barn. There are also multiple patios with Viking grills, a koi pond, waterfalls and a 1-acre “self-feeding pond stocked with fish,” the listing notes.
For motorcycle aficionados, the highlight just might be the two-story garage, which also has two guest apartments and a workshop space. The listing broker is Seta Tunell, of Ellis Sotheby’s International Realty.
