“Palais Bulles” for sale for £305 million - It’s been reported that the famous bubble mansion on the French Rivera owned by fashion magnate Pierre Cardin is back on the market for £305million.

The property thought to be the most expensive property in Europe includes ten unique suites, 11 bathrooms, three swimming pools, luxurious gardens and an amphitheater that seats 500 with sea views.

Cardin bought the Palais Bulles, at an auction in the early 90s after the death of its French Industrialist owner.

The bubble mansion has housed a number of celebrities during its time including Pierce Brosnan and Rhys Ifans. 

Cardin held Brosnin's 40th birthday party in his home. The Dior Cruise collection show to coincide with the Cannes Film Festival in 2016 was also held there.
