A sprawling Beverly Hills estate, complete with its own vineyard, recently listed at $195 million, making it the country\u2019s most expensive homes for sale.<\/p>\n

\"1-FEAT-FRONT\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Mediterranean-style compound developed by Mohamed Hadid<\/strong> is called Palazzo di Amore<\/strong> (\u201cPalace of Love\u201d), a breathtaking villa nestled on 25 acres, possessing (practically) every architectural and design luxury known to humankind.<\/p>\n

\"2-25<\/a><\/p>\n

The most stand-out feature of this marvelous property for sale is \u201cthe combination of amenities,\u201d said Joyce Rey<\/strong> in an interview with Haute Residence. She and Stacey Gottula<\/strong> are the listing agents.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have seen many of these [amenities] in other homes, but not all of them in one place,\u201d she said. \u201cIt really is impressive.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"3-Pool<\/a><\/p>\n

Besides the property\u2019s triple-digit price tag, other jaw-dropping features are a private waterfall; gorgeous, twin-curving staircases; spacious-beyond-belief dining and living rooms that open onto the grounds; a chef\u2019s kitchen with a commercial walk-in refrigerator; and views of the iconic Los Angeles canyons, city lights, and ocean. Outdoor recreational facilities include a swimming pool, spa, outdoor barbecue area, and tennis court.<\/p>\n

The six-building house can accommodate a high volume of guests, as it provides garage parking for 27 cars and has parking for up to 150 cars on-site.<\/p>\n

\"4-Twin<\/a><\/p>\n

\"5-Walkway\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The newest addition to the estate is a 15,000-square-foot entertainment complex that includes pristine pools lined with majestic, 70-year-old olive trees; a discotheque\/ballroom with a state-of-the-art laser light system and revolving dance floor; a bowling alley; and a 50-seat theater with a dressing room for live stage shows (in addition to movie screenings).<\/p>\n

\"6-Theater\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The home\u2019s stunning architecture is credited to Bob Ray Offenhauser<\/strong>, and Alberto Pinto<\/strong> is responsible for the outstanding design features, which incorporate rich textures, fabrics, and tiles, as well as exotic furnishings.<\/p>\n

\"7-Balcony\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Palazzo di Amore\u2019s main residence is over 35,000 square feet; there are 12 bedrooms, 23 bathrooms, and the master suite, alone, is 5,000 square feet. The home is well protected, having three sets of double gates, and a \u201csecurity guard house.\u201d<\/p>\n

The home\u2019s current owner is real estate entrepreneur Jeff Greene<\/strong>, who bought the property in 2007 and has invested tens of millions to complete and expand it. He also had his wedding there, according to Joyce Rey.<\/p>\n

\"8-Fountains\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Joyce Rey and Stacey Gottula are no strangers to the real estate industry. The ladies set the national sales record in 2010 when they sold Le Belvedere<\/strong>, another Mohamed Hadid estate, in Bel Air for $72 million.<\/p>\n

Ms. Rey is also known for making the \u201chighest sale ever\u201d recorded in 1978, when she sold the former Sonny and Cher estate for $4.2 million (an astounding price at the time).<\/p>\n

\u201cIt shows you the tremendous advantage of investing in residential real estate in the United States,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
