Defying the recession, Lebanese developer Musa Salem has listed his retrofitted London mansion, No. 10 Belgrave Square, for £100 million, or approximately $150 million.  Meaning 10 Belgrave Square is now tied with Candy Spelling’s Holmby Hills home for the most expensive home in the world currently on the market.

So what do you get for $150 million? “Twelve bedrooms, 20 ft. ceilings, an indoor swimming pool in the basement, a gym, a home theater,” and 21,000 square feet.  Pretty baller, but $150 million worth of value?  We’d negotiate this one pretty hard.

It looks like a La Quinta Inn (see the image gallery below), but Tony and Eva’s newly listed San Antonio mini mansion offers the opportunity to pick up a turn-key bachelor pad for under a million bucks.  Not a bad deal, considering the 5,500 square foot, 5 bedroom crib comes loaded with a fairly extensive list of luxury amenities, including a second floor media room, executive-style office, swimming pool and spa, and the half court bbal court emblazoned with the Spurs logo.

Parker picked up the pad in 2001 at the age of 19 for $782,040.  He and Eva are trading up to a $7 million, 10,000 square foot home that they’ve been building in the city.

Nicholas Cage has listed a number of his upscale properties on the market including this Bahama Island and New Orleans Mansion. The 45 acre Bahama Island, Leaf Cay, is on the Exuma Island Chain and is located 85 miles southeast of Nausa. The island is completely undeveloped, but has plenty of privacy and beautiful beaches for you and your significant other to bounce around in the nude. Nicholas Cage’s Island is listed for $7,000,000. A striking price considering he paid only $3,000,000 in 2006. We’re not sure there is a buyer out there who’ll be attracted with the current price tag, but private islands have blown up in popularity in the past few years.

Care to live inside the continental U.S.? Nicholas Cage has this beautiful New Orleans Mansion on the market for the reletively reasonable price of $3,700,000. Read the rest of this entry »

To give you an idea of how much (or rather how little) bang you get for your buck in the new list-topping tax haven, we’ve assembled a selection of the most expensive properties on the market within the Principality, where your average 1,500 square foot apartment would theoretically run you just under $10 million.

On the high end of the spectrum in our featured properties, listed in descending order from highest to lowest total price, you’ll find a nearly 7,000 square foot townhouse selling for €27.5 million ($38 million), a 3,200 square foot apartment running €26 million ($35.9 million), and a 5,200 square foot penthouse priced at €24 million ($33.1 million).  Pulling up the rear so-to-speak, is a 2,690 square foot villa listed for €10 million ($13.8 million) and a 480 square foot apartment at just over €1.49 million ($2 million). Prices per square foot range from $4,170 to $11,200.

The world may be in an economic crisis, but there’s still plenty of big spending going on in Russia.  According to Russian property agency Agent 002 last Friday, Moscow’s most expensive property, a 1,300 square meter (14,000 square foot) townhouse, sold to a low-profile Russian business tycoon for nearly 2.5 billion Rubles, or approximately $99 million USD.

Located within Moscow’s Chistie Prudy (Clean Ponds) Residence complex, a five minute drive from Moscow’s Red Square and city center, the 7+ story townhouse contains five bedrooms, five full bathrooms, three half baths, a children’s floor, a basement-level indoor swimming pool, and a rooftop winter garden.
