Let’s look behind the door of the mansion designed for the ultimate billionaire.
We often aspire to live somewhere bigger. Somewhere better. Somewhere with the wow factor. Well, if money really is no object then this expensive pad at 924 Bel Air Road is for you.
The mansion situated at the foot of the Santa Monica mountains has been put on the market for a staggering USD 250 million. This makes it the most expensive property to have ever gone onto the market in America. So what could possibly justify its hefty price tag?
Well aside from being situated in one of the most exclusive enclaves of Los Angeles, Bel Air, this property is spread over 3,530 square metres. It has 12 bedrooms, 21 bathrooms, three kitchens and five bars – perfect for those looking to throw the ultimate party. But it is the added extras that make this one unbelievable pad.
There is a theatre that sits 40 people, a 25-metre infinity pool and 1,580 square metres of entertainment decks complete with the highest specification of home technology system known in the country. And what billionaire pad would be complete without wine and champagne cellars that are fully stocked, a gallery of cars that total a value in excess of USD 30 million, full-time staff of seven, plus over one hundred curated art installations. This is in addition to the wellness spa and massage studio, a fitness centre and four-lane bowling alley. It brings a whole new meaning to a turnkey property.
Conceived and designed by real estate guru Bruce Makowsky, he set himself a challenge to trump his existing record he achieve of USD 70 million for one of his properties in Beverley Hills. “This home was curated for the ultimate billionaire who wants the best of everything that exists in life”, he commented.
What will be interesting to see is who will jump at this property. It was built for the growing number of billionaires. But at the end of the day, a property is worth what someone will pay for it.
