How Do You Spell Millionaire?

April 2, 2009 - PRLog -- It may seem like an inauspicious time to be selling the most expensive home in the US, but that hasn’t put Candy Spelling, wife of the late TV producer Aaron Spelling, from putting her Holmby Hills mansion up for sale for an eye-watering £105 million…

The Spelling home, which is known as The Manor, is the largest property in Los Angeles County, at 56,500-square-foot, and is set in 4.6 acres of land. Built in 1991, just as Aaron’s biggest show, Beverley Hills 90210 was taking off; it counts the Playboy Mansion and the uber-exclusive Los Angeles Country Club amongst its neighbours.

Years ago, when Aaron was being interviewed about his home, he was unable to remember how many bathrooms the house had, saying between 16 and 26, which gives some indication as to the sheer size of the place. In total, the house is said to have 123 rooms.

It also boasts a bowling alley, wine cellar and tasting room, a China room, library, gym, humidity-controlled silver storage room, screening room, barber shop, beauty salon and gift-wrapping room.

If this isn’t enough to encourage you to make that offer, there are also numerous swimming pools, tennis courts and parking space for more than 100 cars.

The estate also has an 18th Century-style garden, a rooftop rose garden and a citrus orchard.

Obviously selling a home of this nature requires an estate agent with much experience, tenacity and a bulging contacts book, so Candy Spelling enlisted the help of a trusted advisor when it came to choosing which agent to use.

She let her dog choose. Madison the soft-coated Wheaten Terrier was present at every agent interview and Candy watched how the pet reacted to each. If Madison didn’t seem to like them, they were crossed off the list.

She (Candy, not Madison) now has plans to downsize to a £33 million, two-story condo in a residential tower in LA.

It’s a dog’s life.
