A magnificent gem, glittering on the Southern Florida coast, is heading to auction. Playa Vista Isle, a lavish mansion inspired by the palace of Versailles, hones in on the opulent qualities of its French counterpart and will be available for buyers to bid online beginning November 12. Concierge Auctions will spearhead the auction process of the one-of-a-kind estate, which was last put on the market in 2014 for $139 million, according to Curbed.From the first glance, the property captivates visitors with its grand nature. One could get lost in gaping at the exterior containing private beach access, multiple pools and a 29-foot-high waterfall, but once inside the 30,000-square-feet of living space is just as impressive. The foyer of the main level is teeming with 22-karat gold leafing and appears as if Midas graced the entry with his enchanted fingertips. Floor-to-ceiling retractable glass walls adorn the formal living room which unifies the oceanic landscape with the gilded interior. A mahogany-clad kitchen, fit for a restaurant-size staff, will produce feasts fit for a king to be consumed in the formal dining room.An estate of this magnitude is perfect for guests. With 11 bedrooms and 22 bathrooms, a buyer can invite scads of their friends and still have room to maneuver without sharing space. Playa Vista Isle does not lack in amenities, and includes a temperature-controlled wine cellar, IMAX theater, gym and outdoor putting green.Tony Young and Mayi de la Vega are overseeing Concierge Auction’s sale.
