Billionaire Roman Abramovich, one of the richest man in the world, has just made an historic purchase that takes the spot of “The World’s Most Expensive House”. The Chelsea Football Club owner has just paid $500 million dollars for this superior estate. This elite estate sits on a 10 acre lot cascading down to the resort of Villefranche on the French Riviera.
The 41 year old and his oil heiress girlfriend Daria Zhukova, fell in love with the palatial villa during a private viewing. Apparently, he’d like to take over all of the exclusive properties along the Riviera. He also owns the $30-million Chateau de la Croe just down the road from La Leopolda. Past owners of the Leopolda include Edmund Safra, Microsoft’s Bill Gates and Fiat tycoon Gianni Agnelli.
You know your Ballin’ when you can pay the $3.2 million monthly mortgage payment!

Definitely in a league of his own. Props out to you Mr. Abramovich.
