That's not a home, it's a resort hotel, and a garish one at that. Blech!

I got bored and didn't even finish the short video. Very sterile--and the view, city sprawl that fades into the smog, is not appealing to me. Someone will buy it, though. I'm sure it will make them very happy until the novelty wears off.

I hope I have enough money under my comforter for the down payment.

ITA. I wouldn't care how much money I had, I would have a very nice home, but that is just way over the top. Nothing I would ever be interested in.

Why Beverly Hills? That place is not what it used to be. In fact, that area is declining in value. There is Bel Air, Sherman Oaks, Pacific Palisades, Brentwood Park, Pellican Hill, Hidden Hills, Cameo Shores, etc. The list goes on and on. Inflated dollars keep changing neighborhoods. I want to know why it is called the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, when the really wealthy ones live outside Beverly Hills.

It's been on the market quite awhile. Not selling like hot cakes. I always wonder about these houses with the wide glass sliders that are kept open. Don't mosquitos, flies and other undesirables wander in?

The house may seem excessive (and it is!), but it provided work for quite a few carpenters, plumbers, electricians, and landscapers, not to mention an architect. Shopkeepers made some $$$ from the goods they purchased for it. Those who work on high-end jobs like this, though middle class, likely make more $$$ than they would on more mundane projects. I'm sure the work was appreciated, given the slow-down in construction in recent years.
