From the New York website:B The onetime home of King Leopold II in Saint Jean Cap Ferrat in the south of France has hit the market, asking one billion euros, or roughly $1.1 billion.

So what do you get for this extraordinary price? Just 10 bedrooms (thatb s $100 million per bedroom!) according to the Express. There is also an Olympic-sized swimming pool 35 acres of gardens with15,000 plants and around 20 greenhouses, a ballroom and stables for up to 30 horses.
Known as Les Cedres, the property is owned by Suzanne Marnier-Lapostolle, who is part of the Grand Marnier liquor dynasty. Grand Marnier was bought by drink brand Campari in March, and it also acquired a stake in the home. With the heiress looking to downsize, Campari has decided to sell the home.
