Candy Spelling's Holmby Hills mansion goes on the market for $150 million
Candy Spelling is moving to her new Century City penthouse, so now you can own her punch-line inducing mansion in Holmby Hills. But don't expect the recesssion-era discount, according to the Associated Press:
The widow of producer Aaron Spelling is placing "The Manor" in the exclusive Holmby Hills neighborhood on the market for a jaw-dropping $150 million, making it by far the most expensive home for sale in the U.S.
The French chateau-style mansion has 56,500 square feet of space on more than 4.6 acres and is the largest home in Los Angeles County. Among the neighbors are the Los Angeles Country Club and, not too far away, the Playboy Mansion.
Candy Spelling's late husband produced hit shows such as "Charlie's Angels," "Dynasty" and "Beverly Hills 90210." He died in 2006.

It's not a penthouse. It's a house.

You didn't mention how good the weather is in So. Cal. and don't forget you can refinance into a lower rate and live off the equity for the rest of your life and never have to work again.

She is moving into a 2-story penthouse of an oval shaped condo tower still being built at this moment by Related Properties on Avenue of the Stars in Century City.

I guess that there would be an element that would think this house "elegant". Poor thing.

150$ millions? Pfff, you can buy a REAL castle in Europe for MUCH more less at about 20 millions where the land doesn't tremble everyweek and less to zero chance of an earthquake with FRESH air. What a cheapthrill this lady is.

What a beautiful looking exterior of a house. I hope the new owners dont tear it down claiming "its to small and out dated".
