Top 10 most expensive homes

Houses are more than a place to keep your stuff and shelter you from the elements. Over time, they become the place where you can’t wait to get to after work, or the place where you decide to raise your family.
Given this importance, the price of a house is quite high and acquiring a decent one can be a life long pursuit. That being said,

let’s take a look at the top 10 most expensive homes:

At number 10, Dracula’s castle

Where is the infamous location of Transilvania? Well, it was actually a country, until it united with two others and formed modern day Romania. Owned by Arhduke Dominic, for a modest 135 million dollars, you too can own one of the famous locations in the world.

Number 9 in Windlesham, Surrey, UK, we have Updown Court

Everything you can dream of, this house can offer. And don’t worry about housing guests because it has over 100 bedrooms at your disposal. This dream come true will cost you 139 million dollars. It is listed for sale currently.

At number 8, located in the city of angels, California, we have The Manor

It features good security and as with our previous spot, it facilitates any activity, from tennis to polo. So if you want to buy the biggest home in Los Angeles, you have to gather up about 150 million dollars at the least. It currently has no owner and it is listed for sale.

Number 7 is The pinnacle

Another house located in the US, but this time in Montana, owned by Tim and Edra Blixseth. There are people who just love winter sports and this house caters to them. It has only about 10 bedrooms, but the conditions they offers are unbelievable. You have to pay 155 million if you even hope to have a chance of buying this house.

At number 6 we have Franchuk Villa, Kensington, UK

Besides the palace, this home is probably the one with the highest buying price in the city of London. If you want to go for swim in the basement pool, experience the nostalgia of its Victorian architecture and watch movies in your own cinema, you better pay up handsomely. 161 million dollars to be precise. This house is currently on the market.

For number 5, we return to the US for the Hearst Mansion, Beverly Hills, US

This house has 6 distinctive wings, a ton of fireplaces and pools and about 29 bedrooms. The residence even has included its own nightclub. So all the people who can get 165 million dollars, can have a lot of fun here. It is owned by Leonard Ross.

Coming up at number 4, with a price tag of 170 million dollars, Fairfield Pond, The Hamptons

As of now, this is probably the biggest privately owned compound in the entire country. It has tennis courts, plenty of bathrooms and even a bowling alley. It looks more like a luxury hotel than an actual private home owned by Ira Rennert.

The prices get higher in our third spot, with The Penthouse, London, UK is costing about 200 million dollars

London is a very expensive city to live in, so it comes as no surprise that this simple flat cost so much. You can literally buy a castle, and have enough left for 3-4 yachts for the price of this single apartment. It’s owned by Edmund Safra.

Number 2 at over 500 million, Villa Leopolda, Cote D’Azur, France

This place housed royalty and billionaires from across the world. The beautiful French coastline, coupled with a home that can offer you almost anything is definitely a good buy. It was purchased, in part by none other than Bill Gates.

And finally, our first spot Antilla, Mumbai, India, the most expensive home right now in the world.

This is the pinnacle of luxury, costing one billion dollars to own. It is far beyond the reach of most people in the world. It comes as no surprise that it is often compared to the Taj Mahal. Private medical facilities, swimming pools, yoga areas and private religious shrines are just some of the features that await. It’s current owner is Mukesh Ambani.
