Forbes Magazine has just released their lists of the world's most expensive homes. Topping the list is Updown Court Palace. It is a brand new home built outside of London near Windsor Castle.

Want to borrow a cup of sugar from the neighbors? If the Queen or Elton John are at their homes, I am sure they will be glad to help out.

Have a big family or expecting alot of visitors? The 103 rooms and 5 pools should be more than adequate.
And you can bring all your guests in via helicopter that lands at your heliport, or failing that, limo them in. There is room for several limos in the garage and the driveway is marble and heated to boot.

If they aren't awed enough, wait until they get a glimpse of your gold leafed study floor.

Price tag: Cheap at the price - $140M.

I am sure there isn't one good argument to be made regarding diminishing your carbon footprint if you own this house.
