India’s richest man, Mukesh Ambani, is building what is set to be the most expensive house in the world. It’s estimated that it will cost in the region of £1b to build and you can expect a masterpiece by all accounts.

Described as a skyscraper it will have a swimming pool, multiple “safe” rooms and 600 servants, along with a health club, home theater and a helipad and will be able to accommodate 168 cars.

It will reach 570 feet tall and contain 27 stories each with regally high ceilings. Plenty of room for Ambani, his wife, Neeta, their three children and Ambiani’s mother. It’s been called Antilia after a mythical island and was designed by Chicago architecture firm Perkins & Will.

Forbes magazine has listed Ambiani with a net worth of $22 billion as the 14th-wealthiest man in the world, whose Reliance Industries Ltd. is India’s largest private company. In November, the Mumbai Mirror reported he bought his wife a luxury jet estimated at $60 million for her 44th birthday.
