What Does a Villa Built for a Dubai Royal Look Like?

August 23, 2017

Take a look inside this 46,000 square foot luxury villa complete with luxury amenities including 11 bedrooms, 15 bathrooms, indoor and outdoor pools, a 16-seat movie theater, breathtaking views of the best stretch of beachfront available for a private residence in Dubai, and a nightclub with room for 200 guests. According to Mansion Global, ‘The villa also comes with a very rare asset in this part of the world’ approval to put in a mooring for a boat, something that is not usually permitted in Dubai’.

The neighborhood is full of high-end establishments such as Nobu and Locatelli located in the Atlantis hotel, a W Hotel coming soon, and a $4.5 million square foot shopping mall currently under construction that will feature five stories of luxury shopping and rooftop restaurants.

It may be not a surprise that the Dubai Royal family never lived in the home, but used it for guests and entertaining. Built in 2007, the villa is built more like a hotel than a private residence with specific service entrances and complete maid quarters for 10 staff members. The villa is currently on the market for $200 million (AE Dollar) / $54.5 million (US Dollar). See Mansion Global article

Greystone Court Castle Just Outside New York City is for Sale

August 21, 2017

Greystone Court Castle is unique fortress located just 20 minutes from New York City; and it’s for sale. With sprawling views of the Hudson River and lush countryside, the majestic castle is a rare find indeed. Zillow reporter, Lindsay Cohen recently spent two days at the castle and shared the experience with Zillow Porchlight.

Kohle Yohannan has owned Greystone Court since 2001 and has lovingly restored the castle to its current splendor. Built over 150 years ago, the stately residence features 28 rooms with some imported directly from Europe during the 1800’s. Other stunning features include Tiffany windows, a 17th-century ceiling, hand-carved woodwork, a Turkish Room with upholstered walls, a spacious ballroom, and observatory overlooking the Hudson River. When asked about the renovation, Yohannan remarked, ‘œIt needed some love,’ he says, nonchalantly, of the house. ‘œBut there was always a sense that it was important work. It was worth the sacrifice. Hundreds of thousands of hours went into creating this: the carvings, the people who danced and cried and wept underneath these ceilings. The human patina is in this building.’

The castle has been featured in several movies, TV shows, photo shoots and even a music video. According to the article, Prince once considered purchasing the property.

With six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, 11 fireplaces and 13,500 square feet, the residence is currently on the market for $3.495 million. Douglas Elliman agent Terhi Edwards says it’s a bargain and thinks the next owner could use the property as an art gallery, a music studio or maybe even a unique concert hall. ‘œI think the business part is great ‘” and also the history, what this whole place is. I sometimes think of people who lived here. It’s an amazing place.’ See Zillow Feature

$350 Million Megamansion Is Most Expensive Listing in U.S.

August 17, 2017

A Bel Air home was just listed for $350 million making it the most expensive listing in the U.S. According to Global Mansion, Chartwell, a 1930’s chateau that belongs the family of the late billionaire Jerry Perenchio, went on the market August 7 as the highest price listing in the nation.

Other nine-digit listings include Opus, a Beverly Hills spec home listed for $100 million. The developer, Nile Niami plans to unveil another megamansion next year that will be listed at $500 million. Formula One heiress Petra Stunt is selling her home in Holmby Hills for $200 millio and the Playboy mansion sold for $100 million last year.

How do the select few luxury listing agents with homes in this price range market the one-of-a-kind mansions and find a billionaire buyer? Douglas Elliman CEO, Scott Durkin who is quite comfortable around major luxury sales was asked about selling megamansions. Durkin commented, ‘œThe marketing of a home of that price range requires you to completely wipe your board clean. Getting the home the most exposure you possibly can and targeting the audience, that’s really the goal. Once you’re north of nine digits, you can’t just wait for the phone to ring.’ Douglas Elliman brokered the most expensive Manhattan penthouse last year for $87.7 million as well as other nine-figure listings in New York City and the Hamptons.

Los Angeles’ finest luxury brokers share their marketing strategies and success stories in the Global Mansion article. See full article
