Champ d'Or
Forbes.com looks at America's most expensive
homes. Most of them are on the coasts but one of the most beautiful options in the mega-house category is
actually in Denton, Texas. Camp d'Or(French for "field of gold") was built by Alan Goldfield, a retired
businessman. The house is 48,000 square feet and has a tearoom, garden room, ballroom and mini-theater. The
over 30 acres of property include a swimming pool, tennis court and a lake. The style of the house mimics a
French chateau and the center dome is 78 feet high. Other details include a two-story mahogany library, private
hair salon, steam room, weight room, gift wrap room and as well as a bowling alley, ballroom and racquet ball
court. The house has two elevators but you probably also need your own Segway to navigate the massive
halls. The house has been listed at $45,000,000 and has been on the market for over a year. Shortly after
completing the five-year project in 2002, the Goldfields decided it was too much house for them and put the house they
called their dream on the market.
