The most expensive single family home ever sold in the United States was recently purchased by Russian billionaire Yuri Milner for $100 million dollars.
Plenty of room for everyone.
This, from If It's Hip, It's Here: "Yuri Milner, 49, heads Digital Sky Technologies is a major investor in Facebook Inc., Groupon Inc. and Zynga Inc. He is also the stocky founder of DST, a Moscow-based fund that's made a splash in Silicon Valley via its investments."
Her bath.
His bath.
Library.
Formal dining room
Library. Here's what I don't understand: Why do really, really rich people aspire to live in Disneyland / v upscale retirement homes? In houses that look like their nana's? This guy is only 49! And yet, here he is, preserved in formaldehyde, design-wise. Why?
Or Vegas.
" The home, referred to as the Loire Chateau, sits atop an 18-acre hilltop site with panoramic views of the San Francisco Bay. The classical estate was inspired by an 18th-century French Chateau and is organized around a central entry court enclosing a formal entrance on three sides. The north wing is designed for entertaining on a grand scale, with a ballroom, formal dining room, home theater, wine cellar and spa/gym, while the south wing houses family rooms and bedroom suites. The living areas are all located on the second floor to take advantage of the dramatic Bay views."
Oh well.
Each to his own.
Yuri.

I don’t trust anyone who has so few books. Especially when they have a whole library to put them in.
Even though it IS hard to believe, some people actually do like this style…
I never understand why they have “his” and “her” everything especially full bathrooms? Surely you and your partner are not going to want to have a bath at the exact same time every day? And what about a bit of bathing together? Just seems so unromantic to me. But maybe that’s just me…
