Forbes Most Expensive US Homes 2006

Filed under: Estates

Forbes Magazine just released their picks of the most expensive homes in the US for 2006. The real estate market may be slowing somewhat, but that fact didn't stop the average price of a home on this list from jumping up to $71 million from $58 million. In a change from last year's list, the $75 million asking price of the top home from 2005 - the Three Ponds, in Bridgehampton - was surpassed by two houses: Donald Trump's Maison de L'Amitie in Florida, with an asking price of $125 million, and the Portabello Estate in California, also listed at $75 million. Other picks include Martin Zweig's apartment and a limestone mansion in San Francisco.
