Perhaps that's the fifth factor in the high-end market: It only takes one offer.
1. $125 million


Incredible Homes!Fleur de Lys
Beverly Hills, Calif.

The latest addition to the $100 million-plus club, Suzanne Saperstein's gem is aptly called the Fleur de Lys. Modeled after Louis XIV's palace at Versailles, the 45,000-square-foot home took five years to build following Saperstein's accumulation of five acres in Holmby Hills during the 1990s. Should strolling the grounds bore you, there is a 50-seat screening room and a library filled with first-edition books. Auto collectors will salivate over the nine-car garage.
For more information, contact Joyce Rey at Coldwell Banker Beverly Hills or Robert Kass at Hilton & Hyland Real Estate.
2. $100 million

Incredible Homes!Tranquility
Lake Tahoe, Nev.
Conveniently located on the tax-free Nevada side of Lake Tahoe, this 210-acre property is owned by Joel Horowitz, co-founder of Tommy Hilfiger. The 20,000-square-foot main house is modeled after a Northern European mountain home and has a 3,500-bottle wine cellar. An indoor swimming pool and atrium, as well as a 19-seat movie theater, ensure constant entertainment, even if you're snowed in.
For more information, contact Shari Chase at Chase International.
3. $85 million

Incredible Homes!Bel Air, Calif.
On 2.2 acres in the Bel Air neighborhood, this 48,000-square-foot palace has 10 bedrooms and 14 bathrooms. If you're worried about the riff-raff sneaking in, there's a 1,000-foot-long, 36-foot-high wall made of Jerusalem stone that encircles the property. The three-story home sits on a parcel that includes a swan pond, infinity pool and gardens. As part of the L.A. lifestyle, you need cars, and in case you've got 20 of them, there's plenty of parking in this home's garage.
For more information contact Joyce Rey at Coldwell Banker.
4. $75 million (down from $125 million)

Incredible Homes!Dunnellen Hall
Greenwich, Conn.
On 40 acres of rolling hills, with lawns and meadows broken up by tree lines that provide privacy, this Jacobean manor has 21,897 square feet, 14 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms. Vaulted ceilings, travertine marble floors, bay windows, limestone walls and wood paneling are notable interior features, as is a 52-foot-long indoor swimming pool.
For more information, contact David Ogilvy at David Ogilvy & Associates, an affiliate of Christie's Great Estates.
5. $75 million

Incredible Homes!Upper East Side
New York, N.Y.
Rarely, even for New York's most expensive townhomes, can you find one that's 45-feet wide, as is the case with this limestone mansion on East 61st Street. The six-story home has 21,000 square feet of space. High, arched ceilings, winding staircases and stone floors mark the entry way. Other features include an interior courtyard, library, garden level, wine cellar, roof terrace, home gym, sauna, six bedrooms, three staff rooms and ten bathrooms.
Serena Boardman of Sotheby's International Realty has the listing.
