CHÂTEAU LOUIS XIV IN LOUVECIENNES IS OFFICIALLY THE MOST EXPENSIVE ESTATE IN THE WORLD
Inspired by Vaux-le-Vicomte castle, Château Louis XIV is an impressive residence located only a few kilometres away from Paris, which was officially sold to an anonymous buyer for the amount of 275 millions of euros.
A COLOSSAL PROJECT
This huge Château Louis XIV represents 5000 sq.m and was built on a 23 acres domain in Louveciennes, by a Saudi-french named Emad Kashoggi, who is passionate by sumptuous French castles.
Inspired by 17th century design, the construction of the castle has only began in 2011 and only lasted two and a half years! This is the first time that a castle is totally unknown in France. Emad and his company Cogemad are used to build or renovate French-inspired castles, and they worked with at least 120 craftsmen to achieve this impressive project. Surrounded by woods and grasslands, Château Louis XIV combines historical wonders and state-of-the-art technologies. Very classical but still futuristic project.
