Arizona Mansion Priced at $35 Million May Break Record of Priciest Estate

A sophisticated Arizona mansion listed with an asking price of $35 million could set a new record as the most expensive estate in Arizona if it is bought with the said price, according to Jim Patterson of the Information Market, which is a Tempe-based real estate data and analytics company.

The elaborately outfitted mansion located in Paradise Valley, an affluent community between Scottsdale and Phoenix, is owned by hedge-fund founder Robert Sussman. Said estate has luxurious features that include his-and-hers pool houses and a basketball court.

The main house has five bedrooms with a domed ceiling and twin stairways. In the home's master suite, it has a sitting room, a hair salon, a kitchenette, an office, his-and-hers closets and multiple terraces. Since the owners of the house are art collectors, you can see different wall arts as well as sculptures and other collections being displayed in the interior, Mail Online reported.

The house also has a home theater and hair salon that adds to the value of the residence. The 12-acre gated estate is also surrounded by palm trees with a large swimming pool. It also has a three-bedroom guesthouse with an infinity pool of its own. From the residence, one can get lovely views of Camelback Mountain.

The house measures more than 30,000 square feet. Its indoor basketball court features an electronic scoreboard and a skybox. There is also a movie theater with a lobby that is decorated with James Bond posters.

Robert Sussman, 68-year-old, the owner of the estate is the founder of New York City-based hedge-fund company Bentley Capital Management. Sussman spent nearly five years in building the house which was completed in 2005. The family decided to sell the house since they are planning to spend more time in California, The Wall Street Journal reported.

Walt Danley and Catherine Jacobson of Walt Danley Realty are listing the property with global marketing support by Christie’s International Real Estate.
