Colorado Has Distinction of Most Expensive Home in U.S.

Colorado has the distinction of having the most expensive home in the country ever listed for sale, according to reporter Al Lewis of DenverPost.Com. The Aspen, Colorado home is the mountain home of Saudi Prince Bandar bin Abdulaziz and his wife, Princess Hafia. It is listed for $135 million, topping Trump's Palm Beach, Florida mansion listed at $125 million. The 27 bedroom home is located on a mountain on a 95 acre lot and has "every amenity you can think of," according to the property manager quoted in Lewis's article. It is has a permanent staff of 16, but bumps up to over 50 when the Sultan is on the mountain.

When this sells, it will certainly distort the median price home figures for the month, don't you think?
