Crystal chandeliers feature in nearly every room in the house.Nest Seekers International

A new mansion has just hit the market in Beverly Hills.

At $80 million, it's one of the most expensive houses on the market in the US. With 28,000 square feet of space, it's also one of the largest.

The property is being sold by retail CEO  Albert Elkouby, a property developer who also owns an apparel company called JH Design. The house was previously listed two years ago for $72 million, but it failed to sell in its half-finished state.

Described as a "French Chateau" in the listing, Elkouby's home has every luxurious amenity and excess imaginable. 

The 1.5-acre property was landscaped to look like it belonged in the French countryside.
