The Manalapan Residence, Manalapan, Florida.
When it is finished, this 67,672-square-foot mansion will have a grotto waterfall, waterslide, and citrus orchard.
$68 Million
Three Ponds Farm, Bridgehampton, New York.

$75 Million
The Portabello Estate, Corona del Mar, California.

$20 Million
Altamer Resort, Shoal Bay West, Anguilla.
Six new houses are planned, some costing up to $70 million each. The Russian Amethyst, seen here, is available for $20 million.
