Gianni Versace owned the Miami mansion, fondly called Casa Casuarina, until his passing in 1997. It features ten bedrooms, a rooftop observatory, gold-lined pool and a beautiful mosiac courtyard– the perfect place for entertaining.

It is reported that the Nakash’s will give the mansion a facelift, turning it into a boutique hotel to complement their other holding (The Victor Hotel) next door.

5. Coming in at number five is Shelter Island estate in Montana. Its $78 million price tag gets you a 24,000-square-foot estate near Glacier National Park. The great room features 45-foot ceilings, and an outdoor heated portico adds an additional 10,000 feet of living space. If the price tag is right at the end of your budget, this home may not be for you: owners must afford a boat, since the only way to access the property is by watercraft.

Shelter Island is only accessible by boat.

4. Number four is Bradbury Estate in Bradbury, CA. The 30,000-square-foot home comes in at $78.8 million. It includes a heated trout pond and an underground shooting range for the sportsman. There's also a 3D movie theater and a 2,000-bottle wine cellar for entertaining. Outdoors, it features an unusual crucifix-shaped swimming pool.

The 10-bedroom, 11-bath home has been owned by telecom entrepreneur Peter Loftin for the last several years. After living in the home until 2009, Loftin turned it into a hotel known as The Villa by Barton G.

Versace bought the home for about $10 million back in 1992 and then added $33 million in improvements including another 6,000-square-foot wing on the home. Loftin purchased the property in 2000 for $20 million.

The oceanfront mansion also includes several artistic upgrades added by Versace when he lived there. One decadent detail: there's a 54-foot pool lined with 24-karat gold and floor to ceiling mosaics inside.
