BEL AIR, Calif. -- A sprawling mega-mansion in Bel Air was sold at auction Friday -- at less than half the asking price of $295 million.
According to various reports, the winning bidder for the estate known as The One'' was a mere $126 million, or a total of $141 million when auction costs and commissions are factored in. The winning bidder for the 21-bedroom estate at 944 Airole Way has not been identified, but the sale price is believed to be the highest-ever auction price paid for a home. The sale is still subject to approval from a bankruptcy court judge, with a hearing set for later this month.
According to Concierge Auctions, which managed the sale, The 105,000-square-foot estate is the largest and grandest house ever built in the urban world.'' The property includes five pools, a nightclub, salon and spa, along with a 10,000-square-foot sky deck, 400-foot private outdoor running track and a movie theater.
The estate, which is still incomplete, sprawls across nearly 4 acres, and it includes 42 full bathrooms and seven half-baths.
