There are numbers that normal human beings can’t even conceive in our minds. When we talk about hundreds of millions of euros, it doesn’t even cross our minds that there could be houses whose prices amount to these numerical combinations. Gentlemen, believe it or not, there are houses so expensive that with their value we could buy 1000 houses for a million euros! Mind-blowing, don’t you think?
Now, let’s cut to the chase and see what the 10 most expensive homes in the world are:
10.
The tenth most expensive house in the world is Bran Castle. Yes, that’s right, Dracula’s castle itself. The Von Habsburg family, the current owners of the castle, are not at all amused by the fact that Bram Stoker had the idea of transforming their humble abode into the house of the prince of darkness. As you may already know, it is located in Transylvania, Romania, and costs only $136,436,100.
9.
The ninth most expensive house in the world is Updown Court. The ideal home for guests, as it has 103 rooms (there are much smaller hotels). As if that wasn’t enough, its owner, who wants to remain anonymous, can take a few walks in his humid garden of 230,000 m2. The price of this property is $140,733,300.
8.
The eighth most expensive house in the world is Briar Patch. A true idyll. Its porch overlooks the Georgica Pond lagoon, a beautiful body of water attached to the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. It is a house immersed in a moving panorama, which must be why it costs $151,476,300. It is located in East Hampton (USA).
