THE most expensive home in the United States, dubbed 'The One' with five swimming pools and a 30-car garage, is up for auction.
Bidding on the 105,000-square-foot monster mansion in Los Angeles began on Monday after the home failed to sell for $295million.

Described as a modern masterpiece, the house will represent the most expensive home sold in the US if it fetches more than $238million at auction.
The sprawling Bel-Air home was once priced at $500million after Nile Niami, Hollywood producer-turned-developer, starting building it in 2013 with the help of 600 contractors.
The estate was listed for $340million in January 2021 but was pulled from the market and placed into receivership, a form of foreclosure.
The home is unfinished and potential buyers apparently risk coughing up millions for unpaid taxes and debts from concrete, air conditioning, and tool companies used to build the dream home.
IMPRESSIVE AMENITIES
Architectural Design said the mansion "appears to float above the city" because of a moat that surrounds it on three sides.
Neighbors were said to include Friends star Jennifer Aniston and Tesla boss Elon Musk.

Aside from five swimming pools and a 30-car garage with two car display turntables, the four acre property boasts a slew of other amenities.
The home features 21 bedrooms and 42 bathrooms, a ‘philanthropy wing’ for charity galas, a bowling alley, and a 10,000 square-foot sky deck with 360-degree views over Southern California.
There's also an in-house movie theater, a spa and salon with bright red walls and shampoo stations, and a private pool and stunning walk-in closet in the 4,000-square foot master bathroom.
And there's plenty of room for entertaining, with a nightclub, 4,000-square foot guest house, golf course, and a huge bar by the bowling alley.
UP FOR AUCTION
There's hope from lenders and brokers that the massive home will sell this time around as luxury real estate in Los Angeles is highly sought after.
The mansion will have to be claimed for at least $200million to cover unpaid costs, The Daily Mail reported.
Bidding on the so-called contemporary castle started at 4pm on Monday through Concierge Auctions and will close on Thursday.
"The One is the largest and grandest house ever built in the urban world," a description reads on the auction website.
"The first and last of its kind, The One presents a unique opportunity to experience Los Angeles on a scale beyond your wildest dreams."
It has no reserve and will beat the record for America's most expensive home if it nets the $295million asking price.
The record is currently held by hedge fund billionaire Ken Griffin who bought a $238million penthouse in Manhattan.
