Point2 analyzed the most expensive homes currently on the market in every U.S. state and Washington, D.C. The lavish list is spearheaded by a quarter-billion property on the aptly named Bellagio Road in Bel-Air, Los Angeles, and a private island residence in Palm Beach.
This early autumn might show signs of the residential market cooling down, but there is no rest for the wickedly priced top-class homes across the United States. Some descriptions of the properties up for sale include laundry lists of amenities, while others simply state that there are "too many bells and whistles to mention" – which only adds to the affluent appeal.
