An insane Florida mansion that was once the most expensive home in the US is back on the market — and now it's even more expensive

Le Palais Royal

One of the most expensive houses ever listed for sale in the US is back on the market — and this time it's asking even more.

"Le Palais Royal," a 60,000-square-foot, Versailles-inspired compound in Hillsboro Beach, Florida, spent a year on the market without selling at an asking price of $139 million. Though that price made it the most expensive home for sale in the US at the time, its main residence's construction has now been completed, and it's currently listed for sale with an even higher price tag: $159 million.

That price includes new additions on a lot adjacent to the property, which the listing refers to as "phase two" of the construction. When completed, it will feature some crazy amenities, including an underground party zone with an ice skating rink, a track for go-karting, a two-lane bowling alley, and even space that can be used for a nightclub. 

It is currently owned by construction mogul Robert Pereira, who had originally planned to live in the residence, but changed his mind, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Mayi de la Vega of One Sotheby’s International Realty has the listing.

The Le Palais Royal is not your typical mega-mansion.



Instead, it's a 60,000-square-foot, 4-acre compound along 465 feet of oceanfront in Hillsboro Beach, Florida. This particular stretch of beachfront housing is known by some as "Millionaires Mile."



Construction on the main home just finished. It sat on the market as an unfinished project for a year.

Oh, The Plaza Hotel's attic penthouse, we meet again.

The huge apartment at the top of one of the most famous hotels is again on the market — this time carrying a price tag of nearly $50 million. That's less than what the apartment was listed for in 2013 ($59 million), but a whole lot more than it was when it was purchased just a year prior to that ($26 million).

In 2008, Russian billionaire Andrei Vavilov sued the Plaza after he found that the unit had lower ceilings than he said he had been promised. He had purchased the penthouse sight-unseen for $53.5 million. The penthouse has had several owners since then.

A private elevator grants a secluded entrance to the triplex penthouse, which has incredible Central Park views and state-of-the-art home automation.

Los Altos Hills $80 million

A modern California masterpiece of a mansion in the Silicon Valley town of Los Altos Hills just listed for an eye-popping $88 million.

That number makes it "one of the most expensive properties ever to be publicly listed in the area," listing agent Michael Dreyfus of Sotheby's International Realty told The Wall Street Journal. It's important to note, however, that homes in the area have changed hands privately for more.

The home is owned by tech entrepreneur Kumar Malavalli, founder of Brocade Communications Systems and current head of venture capital firm VKRM.

The compound includes two structures: a 20,400-square-foot main house and a 1,024-square-foot "executive center." Malavalli used the compound for both living and working, ensuring a commute as easy as a walk through the property's meditation gardens.

He and his wife are now selling the home to be closer to their grandchildren.

George Zimmer, the founder and former CEO of Men's Wearhouse, has listed his oceanfront estate on the Big Island of Hawaii for $35 million. 

According to the Los Angeles Times, he's selling the home because he recently bought Neil Young's $20 million property nearby. 

Zimmer made headlines in 2013, when he was abruptly fired from the company he founded in 1973. He's now reportedly working on a new company, zTux and zTailors, which lets users book tailor services through an app. 

Zimmer's 7.45-acre property sits on the Kohala Coast of Hawaii, and it's one of the largest privately owned homes in the area.

It boasts nearly 1,000 feet of ocean frontage and a seven-bedroom main house.

Andy Warhol's legendary former Hamptons compound just sold to a Manhattan gallery owner for a record $50 million

Feast your eyes on "Eothen," which is Greek for "from the east." 

A slice of Hamptons paradise that once belonged to Andy Warhol just sold for $50 million — a record for Montauk, listing agents told the Wall Street Journal.

The family behind Arm & Hammer baking soda built the estate as a mere fishing camp back in the '30s. Pop art godfather Andy Warhol then scooped up the compound in the '70s for a mere $220,000, hosting the likes of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, the Rolling Stones, and John Lennon.

The most recent owner was J. Crew Group CEO Micky Drexler, who purchased the property for $27.5 million in 2007.

Originally part of a 21-acre estate with a separate 24-acre horse farm across the street, the property has now been divided up. The Warhol Estate donated 15 of the estate's acres to a nature conservancy, and the newest buyer, art gallery owner Adam Lindemann, elected not to purchase the horse farm, which is still currently on the market.

Douglas Elliman's Ronald White and Paul Brennan had the listing.

You might be jealous of Calvin Harris because he's the world's best-paid DJ — the Scotsman raked in $66 million in 2015, according to Forbes estimates— or because he's superstar Taylor Swift's boyfriend.

He bought it in 2013 for $7 million, public records say. It's listed with the Altman Brothers and Douglas Elliman.

Does this confirm rumors that he's moving in with Swift? Not necessarily: Looks like Harris is just saying goodbye to his smaller spot, as he also owns a $15 million 10-bedroom mansion in Beverly Hills.

This $17 million Brooklyn mansion with a mobster history now comes with a bonus — another house

brooklyn house of the day $17 million

At one time, this "bonkers" estate was the most expensive home in Brooklyn, on sale for $30 million in 2013.

But the next year, it was given a price chop — down to $17 million.

After briefly disappearing from the market, it's up for grabs once more, still priced at $17 million. This time, a whole extra home has been thrown in to sweeten the deal.

The ten-bedroom Mill Basin property is a gated waterfront compound with a storied past and more than 23,000 square feet of interior space. The main house was originally built and owned by John Rosatti, a multi-millionaire with mob connections to the Colombo crime family. He then sold the property to Russian heiress Galina Anisimova (known as the mother of the "Russian Paris Hilton") for $3 million in the late '90s.

Outside, the mansion has a 1,000-square-foot pool, a 40-person pavilion for parties, and 30,000 square feet of outdoor gardens. And then there's the 7,800-square-foot guest house — priced as an independent property at $8 million, according to Curbed NY— which is now yours for free if you purchase the mansion. It's a full three-story home of limestone, glass, and cast iron, with a bamboo garden, three full bedroom suites, a roof deck with Manhattan skyline views, and an elevator.

The main house boasts a downstairs wine cellar, 257 feet of waterfront, a four-car garage, and a two-boat marina. Taken together, this is quite a compound, admittedly more akin in style to something you'd see in Miami than in Brooklyn. 

James Cornell and Leslie Marshall of Corcoran Real Estate Group are currently sharing the listing.

Celine Dion has slashed the price of her gorgeous property on Florida's exclusive Jupiter Island yet again.

Down from an original ask of $72.5 million, the price now stands at $45.5 million after a series of price chops over the three years it has sat on the market unsold, according to The Real Deal.

The home, which is now listed by Fenton Lang Bruner and Associates, was custom-built and designed by Celine Dion herself.

She and her late husband Reneé Angélil bought the lot in 2005 for $12.5 million and the adjacent mansion in 2008 for $7 million, The Wall Street Journal reported. They then razed the existing home to build the current spread.

The 5.5-acre property has views of the Atlantic Ocean, a four-bedroom guesthouse, a simulated golf range, pool house, and three separate pools.

The main residence alone measures close to 10,000 square feet, with five bedrooms and a custom-designed walk-in closet with an automated rack for clothing and automated carousel for shoes.
