Las Vegas is home to some of the most luxurious and expensive homes. From celebrities to some of the world’s most prominent millionaires, the desire to live in an upscale area with breathtaking views, bustling nightlife, and favorable weather has made Las Vegas the perfect place to find exclusive communities that cater to the rich and famous. The most expensive homes in Las Vegas are typically magnificent estates that range from 10,000 to over 20,000 square feet. Most of the living areas contain gourmet kitchens, entertainment spaces, and wellness facilities. Besides designer and breath-taking pools, the outdoor spaces include dining areas and manicured lawns, along with extensive patios or terraces. Some of the most expensive homes in Las Vegas can be found in the following areas:
The Summit Club
Celine Dion owned one of the most expensive and exclusive homes in The Summit Club in Las Vegas. The main residence has over 10,000 square feet. It includes 6 bedrooms with each having their own en-suite bathroom. Additional features of this spacious mansion include a private home theater, a fully equipped fitness center, and a climate-controlled wine cellar. A resort-like outdoor space includes a magnificent infinity-edge pool with a built-in hot tub that is surrounded by lush landscaping and multiple lounging areas. There’s also an outdoor kitchen and dining area which extends the living area and takes advantage of the panoramic views. The property also includes a separate guest house, allowing privacy for visitors.
Just one year after Celine Dion sold her Summit Club mansion for $30 million, another home in the area sold for $35 million. This home happened to be the neighbor of Celine Dion and sits on 1.5 acres and boasts around 12,000 square feet with five bedrooms, seven baths, and a six-car garage. The property showcases an infinity pool with a waterfall and a spa. To be a member of the coveted Summit Club homeowners pay $250,000 in membership fees with annual fees of $110,000. That is on top of a yearly association fee of $30,000. It seems true luxury does have a price and members of this community are more than happy to pay for it.
