If you've got $75 million dollars burning a hole in your pocket, we've got just the place for you. The 30,000 square foot Portabello Estate in California's Orange County is currently on the block. Forbes named the Portabello one of the ten most expensive houses in the world. While we'd usually say any place selling for $75 million can't possibly be worth the price tag, this architectural masterpiece may be the exception to the rule.

The first thing you notice when looking at the Portabello Estate are all of the gorgeous views found around the residence. Each of the eight bedrooms and ten and a half bathrooms were laid out to give them the most expansive views of the Pacific Ocean possible. The mansion graces three full lots in the heart of Newport Beach, with easy access to both town and the serene beach.

Another feature of the house that stands out are all the sensuous curves that make up the nautilus shell-like design of the estate. At the center of Portabello is a sun-washed grotto featuring multiple pools including a swim-up bar and a poolside lounge. All of the bedrooms surround the grotto giving the mansion the feel of a five-star beach front resort. There is even a barbecue area for entertaining guests outdoors.

There are also plenty of luxurious amenities found indoors that really push the Portabello Estate over the top. The house features an entertainment level complete with an Art Deco Theater, bowling alley and automotive museum. There is also a full exercise facility and cafe located on premises. With these features. and all the others that we can't possibly list, the new owner may never leave home.
