Singapore's billionaire mansions are a new level of luxury 🤯
Imagine a plot of land smaller than a football field. There are no skyscrapers, hotels, or shopping malls on it. Just a well-kept lawn, a swimming pool, and silence behind a high wall. And that patch of grass is worth two hundred and thirty million dollars.
Most people think they know what wealth in Singapore is like. They saw the movie "Incredibly Rich Asians"—and decided they understood everything. But that's cinema. It's scenery.
In this city-state, which is smaller than New York, where every square meter is a luxury in itself, there is a secret category of real estate, next to which Beverly Hills looks like a cramped shared apartment. They call them "Good Class Bungalows," or GCB for short—luxury homes of the highest category. There are about two thousand eight hundred throughout the country. And to get at least one, it's not enough to be rich. Authorization from the authorities is required. Influence is necessary. And, almost always, Singaporean citizenship.
They're not houses. They're small sovereign states, hidden behind twenty-foot fences and a wall of rainforest. These are the seven most expensive mansions of Singapore's billionaires. And, at the end, a bonus: a mansion that is more expensive than all of them, but that no one has managed to buy. Welcome to the channel dedicated to the wealthiest.
