In Newport Coast, one of Southern California’s glitziest mansions is aiming for the highest price in Orange County history: $69.8 million.
Dubbed Palais de Cristal, the newly built Palladian-style stunner is a celebration of wealth a 15,500-square-foot concoction of gold, onyx and glass filled with over-the-top spaces and ostentatious amenities.
It’s owned by Amini Innovation Corp. founder Michael Amini, who grew his furniture company into a lifestyle brand that sells products through more than 3,000 retailers in 80 countries. He’ll smash the Orange County home sale record if he gets his price; the current mark belongs to a 19,000-square-foot mansion in the same neighborhood that traded hands for $61 million last year.
