Apparently, over-the-top speculative homes are the flavor of the month in Los Angeles. Just weeks after a $250 million mansion was unveiled in Bel Air, another fully decked-out home joins it with a similarly hefty price tag.
This seven-bedroom, 11-bathroom mega mansion in Beverly Hills costs $100 million and comes with a gold Lamborghini, a Rolls-Royce, two original Damien Hirst paintings, and an Andy Warhol portrait of Muhammad Ali.
Dubbed "Opus," the luxury home is perched above Los Angeles with a view of the city and the Pacific Ocean. It's the brainchild of ex-movie producer turned real estate developer Nile Niami, who has built homes for rapper Sean Diddy and the Winklevoss twins.
Opus is the precursor to Niami's "The One," a Bel Air development that will reportedly list for $500 million.
"It has some of the same amenities, but they're both unique properties with different vibes and a completely different demographic of buyers," Niami said to Business Insider.

This 20,500-square-foot mansion sprawls across an acre of land on elite cul-de-sac Hillcrest, where lots sell for between $32 and $50 million each. "It has always been known as the best area of Trousdale. The people who lived on that cul-de-sac never moved, so the street was never for sale," Niami said. Trousdale Estates is a community in Beverly Hills. "When the opportunity came up, I knew I had to build there."
On one side of the main living room is a retractable glass wall that opens up onto a sweeping view of Downtown Los Angeles and the Pacific Ocean. On the other, a TV comes down from the wall and rotates a full 360 degrees. It allows you to watch TV and admire the view at the same time, Niami said.
The house includes a contemporary art collection with three Damien Hirst originals and an Andy Warhol portrait of Muhammad Ali.
