Le Palais Royal is a 60,500 square foot mansion located in Florida. Dubbed Le Palais Royal the mansion has 11-bedrooms and 17-bathrooms. The home was inspired by the Palace of Versailles, and other European palaces and castles, said Denio Madera, the Miami-based architect and interior designer who is handling the interior design of the home. Surrounded by a gate that is decorated with 22-karat gold leaf, the house includes a $2 million marble staircase, a subterranean garage that can accommodate 30 cars and an 18-seat IMAX home theater with a 50-foot-wide screen. There are three master suites and a presidential suite, each with its own Jacuzzi in a windowed circular rotunda (the presidential suite also has a plunge pool on an outdoor terrace). Outside, there is a 4,500-square-foot infinity pool with salt, chlorine and UV filtering as well as an LED-lit, double-loop waterslide. Suspended above the pool is a glass-bottomed Jacuzzi. "It's supposed to feel like you're floating over the pool," said Mr. Madera. The entire home was built to be soundproof. The home's South African marble floors were insulated specifically so the clacking of high heels will be muted, added William Pierce of Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate, who has the listing. The house is built with an elaborate security system as well as kennels for guard dogs on the lower level. The house sits on 4.4-acres with 465 feet of waterfront on the Atlantic Ocean and 492 feet of waterfront on the Intracoastal Waterway. In 2014 the home was acquired by an over seas heiress N. Villones for a whopping $143 Million. The owner is a very private woman who is said to have inherited a large fortune through her family's German shipping conglomerate.
