Dotted across America, these sprawling mega-mansions have it all: breathtaking infinity pools, state-of-the-art entertainment complexes, and even private helipads. The only thing bigger than their square footage is their price tags. But when you're a billionaire, eight or nine-figure homes are a mere drop in the ocean.

Perched on a sprawling 40-acre (16.2ha) mountaintop plot in Highlands, North Carolina, Sagee Manor is a one-of-a-kind estate offering unrivalled 360-degree panoramic views. 

The exclusive retreat would be ideal for anyone seeking privacy and luxury, since the home is secluded in the mountains and sits behind three sets of stone gates, at the end of a 0.33-mile (0.54km) drive. There's also a helipad, for easy and secure access.

Full to bursting, the estate boasts a stunning manor house, as well as a three-bedroom guest cottage and a pool pavilion, complete with a bathroom, heated pool and spa. The grounds also provide a croquet court, framed by a manicured boxwood hedge and antique stone niches.

Meanwhile, nature enthusiasts can explore the upper meadow, serene woodlands and winding trails, home to rare native plants and abundant birdwatching opportunities. As for the main house, it's a modern and luxurious lodge, built from the finest stone and timber.

Built in 2000, the grand home features four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a regal main hall, a gourmet kitchen, a sitting room, an elegant dining room, a garden room, a stately library, a spacious family room and even a wine cellar.

With flagstone floors, wood-panelled walls, soaring ceilings, elaborate light fixtures and elegant fireplaces, every room is truly exceptional in its design. Plus, there's nothing small about the home's proportions, and all the inside spaces are generous in scale, for added wow factor.

Truly envy-inducing, Sagee Manor was listed for sale in August 2025, with Ivester Jackson Properties, for a snip under $50 million (£36.8m).

Over in the breathtakingly beautiful town of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, you'll find an enchanting ranch that provides some of the most enticing landscapes we've ever seen.

Red Hills Ranch was priced at $65 million (£47.9m) when it was for sale in August 2025 with Live Water Properties. This was the first time the home had been on the market since 1975.

The private ranch belonged to the late American businessman, philanthropist and former United States Senator, Herb Kohl, for more than 40 years.

We can certainly see what drew the politician to the property. The 190-acre (77ha) sanctuary is surrounded by national forest and wilderness, but is only 25 miles (40km) from downtown Jackson.

The property doesn’t just come with one home, either. There’s a main lodge, three riverfront cabins and an owner’s home, all with views of Teton Range.

The main lodge benefits from a stunning rustic interior, with vaulted beamed ceilings, stone fireplaces and hardwood floors. There's an open-plan living space, an eat-in kitchen and plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms.

The estate also offers amazing hiking, horseback riding, fly fishing, rafting, snowmobiling and cross-country skiing opportunities, as well as 1.5 miles (2.4km) of frontage on the Gros Ventre River.

There’s even a blue-ribbon native trout fishery, irrigated pastures, a tack barn for horses and an outdoor pool. What more could you want?

Vail in Colorado is one of the most sought-after and luxurious ski resorts in the world.

The town is situated within the White River National Forest at the base of Vail Mountain and has long been a popular destination for affluent buyers, thanks to its winter sports, summer activities, and cultural festivals. It is in this mesmerising locale that you'll find this architectural masterpiece.

Constructed in 2014, the Alpine residence soars nearly 70 feet (21m) to its highest point. According to the listing, it is Vail's largest core residence at 15,086 square feet (1,402sqm) and cannot be imitated, thanks to exclusive "variances granted decades ago". That makes this home truly one-of-a-kind and perfect for a mogul seeking something exclusive.

Spanning six floors, the home features chic indoor-outdoor living spaces that frame unobstructed views of the Gore Range, through towering windows. Plus, with Loro Piana cashmere walls, hair-on-hide panelled hallways, wide plank oak floors, solid walnut doors and Venetian plasterwork, every room is immaculate.

As for key spaces, there's a stunning great room with a vaulted ceiling, a gourmet kitchen, a formal dining room and a total of 11 bedrooms and 22 bathrooms.

Other luxe features include an in-floor wine cellar in the kitchen, a screening room, an indoor pool and a wellness room. There's even a space for your ski equipment, which includes 21 custom heated lockers to thaw out your belongings.

Outside, you'll find just over half an acre (0.2ha) of land, but it is packed with amazing features. From dining decks with unreal views to these heated pools, the garden is a tranquil oasis in the heart of the mountains. 

In August 2025, this stunning piece of real estate was for sale. Compass held the listing and the home was priced at $78 million (£57.5m).

World renowned, The Hamptons lie on Long Island's South Fork and are made up of a slew of affluent seaside communities, dotted with generously proportioned shingle buildings, with jaw-dropping price tags. This property, on the shore of Georgica Pond, is just one of them.

Located in East Hampton, the mansion encompasses two parcels of land, totalling just over 11 acres (4.5ha), and a quarter-mile (0.6km) of pristine waterfront. Just look at that scenery!

Known as Briar Patch, the home was constructed in 1931 and stands proud at 13,800 square feet (1,282sqm). It was originally built by Arthur C. Jackson, the architect behind the New York Public Library and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis's childhood home, Lasata.

The exterior oozes Hamptons sophistication, while the interior blends traditional, old-world touches with plenty of modern updates, for the ultimate dose of cosy luxury.

The interior offers lovely living spaces that are ideal for both quiet family time and entertaining. There’s a lounge, dining room and kitchen, as well as six bedrooms and eight bathrooms. French doors lead out to patios with panoramic views of the pond and grounds.

There's also a guest house that was constructed in 1990 and designed by renowned architect, Peter Marino. It offers four additional bedrooms, four bathrooms and its own living room and kitchen. Other highlights include a heated gunite swimming pool and spa. 

The master bedroom in the main house is undeniably one of the finest spaces the estate has to offer. With its soaring, timber-clad ceiling, striking wallpaper and large windows that provide dreamy views, it is definitely fit for a VIP billionaire.

This enchanting home was listed in August 2025, via Sotheby's International Realty – Southampton Brokerage, for $95 million (£70.1m). We can certainly see why the property demands such a price tag!

Truly a home fit for a billionaire, this mesmerising mansion once belonged to Petra Ecclestone, the daughter of Formula One executive, Bernie Ecclestone. According to Mansion Global, Petra reportedly purchased the property in 2011 for $85 million (£68.3m) and decided to sell it in 2019.

She originally listed the 123-room home for $200 million (£160.7m) but sold it for $120 million (£96.4m). At the time, this set a new real estate record for the highest selling price ever in California. It's also one of the most expensive homes in America, period!

The buyer didn’t hold on to the place for long, though. In February 2022, the iconic estate was back on the market with Carolwood Estates for $165 million (£132.5m), before the price was lowered to $137.5 million (£101.5m) in April 2024. 

The exquisite home can be found in the affluent Holmby Hills neighbourhood of Los Angeles and was constructed in 1991 for TV producer Aaron Spelling – the man behind Dynasty and Beverly Hills 90210. Yet Petra Ecclestone is said to have spent a lot of time and money renovating the place. 

The 56,500-square-foot (5,249sqm) mansion comes equipped with a huge entrance foyer, finished with black and white marble, seemingly endless living rooms decked out with the finest fittings, 14 bedrooms and 27 bathrooms.

There’s a projection room, a library, an office, a billiard room, a games room, a wine cellar, a gym and a two-lane bowling alley, with its own shoe closet. The home also has private staff quarters, a service wing and a catering kitchen, making it perfect for large-scale entertaining.

The opulent estate features plenty of surprising extras, too, including a room dedicated to cutting flowers, a humidity-controlled room for storing silver, a French wine and cheese room and multiple gift-wrapping rooms, according to interior design and architecture website Architectural Digest.

There’s also a beauty salon, complete with a hairdresser's station, nail bar, massage rooms and a pedicure zone. Other highlights include a large aquarium in the study, a nightclub in the basement, five acres (2ha) of land, a tennis court, a koi pond, a citrus orchard, a swimming pool, a pool house and a 100-vehicle motor court.

One of the finest and most expensive residences in Los Angeles, The Angelo Estate is perched on a six-acre (2.4ha), elevated plot in Beverly Hills and was priced at $175 million (£128.8m) in August 2025.

The lavish residence was designed by master architect Ed Tuttle in 2012 and has been described by Westside Estate Agency as “truly one of the great estates in all of America”.

Constructed from glass, steel and limestone, the mansion has parking for up to 100 cars, as well as a magnificent open courtyard with fountains.

When you enter the home, you'll find yourself in a gorgeous foyer, reminiscent of IM Pei’s iconic Louvre entrance. And this is just for starters! From beautiful living rooms to a chef's kitchen, formal dining room and library, the property has everything the super-rich could need.

The property is made up of three structures, spanning a colossal 50,000 square feet (4,645sqm). There's the main house, a two-storey guest house and a separate apartment.

There are 16 bedrooms and 27 bathrooms across the buildings and every single space is majestic, with floor-to-ceiling windows that frame incredible views, contemporary art, white oak timber accents, limestone walls and statement fireplaces. Of course, an estate such as this requires top-tier protection and comes with state-of-the-art electronics and security, as well as a panic room.

The house even has a nightclub, a movie theatre, a games room, a bowling alley, a wellness centre, a gym, a wine cellar and an art gallery with a glitter ball. Outside, you’ll find superb grounds, including a green marble infinity pool, an outdoor kitchen and a lighted tennis court.

Plus, the house is heated and cooled by geothermal technology and has solar panels and a generator, making it eco-friendly and ready for any disaster.

This sprawling estate is nestled in Glenbrook, Nevada, Lake Tahoe's only gated, lakeside golf course community. Known as Shakespeare Ranch, the world-class property spans 130 acres (53ha) and benefits from over 425 feet (130m) of lake frontage.

Far from just offering a single residence, this estate is home to a 4,980-square-foot (463sqm) lakefront home, as well as 16 other houses and cabins.

One of those homes is under construction. The 7,713-square-foot (717sqm) property was designed by a world-renowned architect, although it hasn't been revealed who it is.

There’s also a 465-foot (142m) private pier, two boat lifts, a boat house, a pool house, a spa, a gym, an art loft, horse stables and rodeo grounds. Four of the homes on the estate are also located right on the water's edge.

The residences were constructed in 2000 and provide a total of nine bedrooms and 14 bathrooms. This particular waterside home features a cosy and rustic interior, with soaring timber ceilings, imposing stone fireplaces and large windows that frame incredible scenery.

Outside, you'll find numerous decks where coffee and meals can be enjoyed, as well as a hot tub and a swimming pool for some R&R.

There’s also a historic entertainment barn, outfitted with a commercial kitchen, a games area and a wine room – perfect for large-scale celebrations or VIP parties.

It's really no wonder that Shakespeare Ranch was for sale in August 2025 for a cool $188 million (£138.7m). The listing was held with Chase International and Luxury Portfolio International.

Amazingly, this $210 million (£154.9m) listing with Coldwell Banker Global Luxury doesn’t even come with a home. The grand waterfront mansion you see pictured is actually just a conceptual design. 

The five-acre (2ha) waterside plot lies in Gordon Pointe – one of the most exclusive neighbourhoods in Port Royal, Florida. The estate comes complete with pristine beaches bordering the crystal-clear waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

In fact, there’s 941 feet (287m) of water frontage. 

The compound has been designed to accommodate one primary residence and a guest house, although plans haven't yet been submitted to Governmental Zoning Boards for formal review or re-zoning.

That means the opportunities for this piece of land are seemingly endless.

According to the listing, there's enough space for a 17,106-square-foot (1,589sqm) mansion, with a total of six bedrooms and 13 bathrooms. But really, it's all about the location and the fact that the beach will be mere steps from the front door!
