Coming in with a jaw-dropping $295 million price tag, the
Bel Air giga mansion known as "The One" is poised to become the most expensive home ever sold in the US. In 2019 when hedge fund magnate and billionaire
Ken Griffin dropped $238 million on the top four floors of 220 Central Park South, it was touted as the most expensive home ever sold in the US. If Nile Niami's hilltop behemoth indeed goes for the asking price of $295 million, it will undoubtedly shatter the current record holder in New York City.
A 10-year-long project of epic proportions, "The One" was designed by architect
Paul McClean and built by Hollywood film producer turned mega mansion developer Nile Niami. The expansive
105,000 square foot residence is perched high on just under four acres of land and boasts panoramic views of downtown
Los Angeles, the Pacific Ocean, the snow-capped San Gabriel Mountains. Let's take a moment to put into perspective just how large 105,000 square feet of living space. The
White House is 54,900 square feet. Boxer Mike Tyson's former
Farmington, CT home is 51,657 square feet. Rapper Rick Ross' 109-room mega mansion in
Fayetteville, GA comes in at 54,000 square feet. The former
Spelling Manor (also in Los Angeles county) is 56,500 square feet. Speaking of the former Spelling Manor, until "The One" came along, it held the record for being Los Angeles county's largest residence for nearly three decades.
Now let's get to the fun facts about this incomparable residence! The first thing that grabs your attention on the outside are the moat-style infinity-edge
swimming pools with entertainment decks. On the inside, it has 21 bedrooms and 42 bathrooms. Totally isolated from the rest of the home, the primary suite is 5,000 square feet by itself and includes massive walk-in closets, an adjoining two-story
office, a kitchen, and a private pool. The foyer boasts 25-foot ceilings and there are five elevators located throughout the sprawling home. There are multiple living and dining areas and two restaurant-grade kitchens. The glossy
library features a floor-to-ceiling movable glass wall that opens up to a terrace. The home's recreation level includes a stadium-style 40-seat
home theater with Dolby Digital sound, a four-lane
bowling alley, a 64-foot long indoor swimming pool, a wellness center with gym, a full-service hair and beauty salon, juice bar, a cigar lounge, and 10,000-bottle
wine cellar. There is also an indoor/outdoor nightclub with its own VIP room and DJ booth. The "philanthropy wing" can accommodate up to 200 people making it perfect for hosting fund raisers and charity galas. Store up to 30 of your favorite supercars in the subterranean garage with two-car display turntable. And for all of the family and friends who can not find an available bedroom in the main house, there is a 4,000 square foot guest house nearby.
The $295 million "The One" is being sold fully furnished and with artworks by several acclaimed artists.
