The World’s Most Beautiful Private Homes

Updown Court – Surrey, England
Updown Court, which is located in Surrey, England, is considered by many to be a very unlucky place. The first house on the site was built in 1924, but burned down in 1987. Construction started on a new house in 1999, but the property changed hands a few times as construction continued and costs began to mount. As it became clear that the property would take tens of millions of dollars to complete, buyers began backing off.
This gigantic house, with 24 bedrooms, a bowling alley, and a tennis court is currently on the market. It could be yours for just $45 million!
