Versailles For Sale

Via Curbed LA: "Fleur de Lys," the Sapersteins' 45,000 sq.ft. Beverly Hills mansion modeled after Versailles and other French châteaux, is on the market for $125 million. A record price, even by U.S. standards -- only surpassed by Prince Bandar bin Sultan's $135 million ranch in Aspen. The sale comes as a result of the ultra rich and ultra tacky couple's break-up. Listing details in WSJ. Saperstein gossip in NYSD. Shame Vanity Fair didn't post its 2002 feature of the faux-royals, their properties and décor online: it was a true epic. photo via wsj.com
