Gargantuan $285 Million Florida Mansion That Will Take 3 More Years To Build Soars to the Top of the Most Expensive Homes List

A sea-to-lake megamansion that is set to span 50,000 square feet just hit the market in Manalapan, FL, for an eye-watering $285 million—becoming the week’s most expensive home, despite the fact that it will not be completed for another three years.

Other pricey properties this week include a Santa Barbara, CA, compound owned by a kitty litter heiress; a Palm Beac, FL, mansion owned by a former Apple CEO; and a recently built Newport Coast, CA, estate owned by the “King of Bling.”
