It’s no secret that real estate isn’t cheap anywhere these days, but these palatial homes give expensive a whole new definition.
With listing prices well over what most people make in a lifetime, the most expensive homes currently on the U.S. market feature perks like full spas, enormous movie theaters, custom marble staircases, design details fit for royalty, and enough bedrooms and bathrooms to get lost in.

With all that these residences offer, there’s no need to ever leave the house. And when you’ve paid this much, why would you want to?
