 $125 Million ‘Fleur De Lys’ Mansion Bought By Mariah Carey Published: Mar 18, 09 Comments: 1 Views: 31,842 Mariah Carey apparently had no problem scraping together a nice down payment on this palace in Beverly Hills. The Fleur De Lys is the world’s most expensive estate with an asking price of $125 million. Maria Carey’s new digs were built by a Texas billionaire on 5 acres; it is 41,000 square feet of pure diva luxury and will be modeled after the most extravagant home of its time: the Palace of Versaille, the former home of Marie Antoinette. Surrounding the mansion are rolling lawns, ornamental gardens and mature trees, a 3,000-square-foot manager’s house, staff quarters for 10 people, a spa and pool with a pavilion, a championship tennis court, and a lavish garden folly. What do you think? Is it proper for Mariah Carey to flaunt her riches when the U.S. is in a recession?  Contactmusic reports that after three months of house hunting Carey and her rapper / actor husband Nick Cannon have made an offer on the estate, for an undisclosed amount. "They like the home because there's so little that needs doing to it," a source close to the couple allegedly remarked. The house is currently owned by Saperstein's ex-wife Suzanne, whom he ditched for the childrens' hot Swedish nanny.
