One month on from his death, Maradona's first home is set to open its doors to the public.

The modest house in the La Paternal district of Buenos Aires was gifted to the football star when he signed his first contract in 1978 with the club Argentinos Juniors.

Diego only lived in the 147-square-metre home for two years but it remains largely intact since those days.

Several of his family members lived there with Diego on Lascano Street, including his parents, his brothers Hugo and Raul and some of his sisters.

Tickets will be purchased through a ticket sales page.

All the money that is raised will go towards maintaining the house.

Tickets will cost 400 pesos (5 USD).

STORYLINE:

La Paternal, a neighborhood in the heart of Buenos Aires, is where is located the 'House of God'. Argentinos Juniors gave Maradona a house in that neighborhood when he signed his first contract in 1978.

Diego lived for only two years but still remains intact since those times. Currently, and after the fate of the Argentine star, it has become a museum in honor of '10'.

Alberto Pérez was the secretary general of Argentinos Juniors when in 1977 he signed Diego Maradona's first contract as a soccer player. The salary was 80 thousand pesos at that time and a year later the club gave him a home.

It was Maradona's first own home. It is in La Paternal and today it is “La Casa de D10S”, a museum that Alberto and his son César made after buying the house and rebuilding it as it was when Diego lived.

Diego and his family - his parents Don Diego and Doña Tota, his brothers Hugo and Rául, known as "Lalo", and part of his five sisters - went to live in 1978 at the house on 2257 Lascano Street, in the neighborhood by La Paternal. The front has two windows with bars and the walls are of crushed stone mixed with glass.

The Maradonas left the house in the late 1980s to move to Villa Devoto. They sold it to the Almeyda family. Later it was sold again to the Grajales couple, who when they divorced, rented it to a company that installed a purse factory.

In 2008 the Perezs bought it. They paid $ 100,000 and the goal was to build the museum from the beginning. Father and son are fans of Argentinos, from the La Paternal neighborhood and with a deep love for Diego. Alberto has known him since he came to the club when he was 10 years old.

Lascano's house was built in 1947 and is 147 square meters. On the ground floor is the kitchen, the dining room, a bathroom, the internal patio and the rooms where part of the family slept.

It has high ceilings and is far from any luxury that a soccer star like Maradona already was at 18 could have today.

In the dining room is the television of the time, a piano that his mother gave him, the table, a sideboard, photos. Everything rebuilt as Diego lived.

Maradona's room is on a kind of mezzanine that can be reached by the staircase that is in the internal patio and that leads to the terrace. The room is about three meters by four and the photos on the walls are reminiscent of what it was like at the time.

Diego had a standing fan, a table with a nightstand, a record player, a small piece of furniture and a closet for clothes, where his black ankle boots with the white stripe are.

The Pérez collect objects of their idol from 30 years ago. They have just over three thousand. With the purchase of the property, they began to renovate it and on October 30, 2015 -when Diego turned 55- the museum was inaugurated.

Since then, César believes that just over three thousand people have passed through the place. Even before his death, visits were taken in turn on the website www.casaded10s.com, which collapsed. But his death changed everything. It will reopen on December 10 and the Pérezes are analyzing how to do it due to the demand they have.

Tickets will be purchased through a ticket sales page. All the money that is raised goes to the care and maintenance of the house. The ticket price is 400 pesos (5 USD).

Just as everything that happened around Maradona's life was incredible, the museum was no exception. “People have come from all over the world. Once a boy, a teacher, from Corrientes, named Javier Romero, could not make the journey of emotion. He was crying and couldn't walk. I had to call my dad and together we calmed him down and he was able to walk around the house. He had an immense love for Maradona”, recalls César, who also says that visitors make unusual requests of him.

“They want to rent us the house to make barbecue or stay overnight,” he says and replies that they don't rent the house, they only did it for the series that Amazon is doing on Maradona's life: “We want to keep it as well cared for. We even try not to use the taps or the kitchen."
