Marin County Mansion Locksley Hall Sells For $65 Million
Who says sales in Northern California are slowing down… 
Locksley Hall, the 12 thousand square foot mansion owned by mining magnate, has sold for full price. The Marin County home overlooking San Francisco Bay was originally bought for a mere 5.5 million dollars but extensive upgrades totaling an estimated 32 million dollars enabled Robert Friedland and his wife to sell the home for the full listing price of 65 million dollars.
The 1895 mansion, on a crest with sweeping views of San Francisco Bay, sits on an acre on Belvedere Island, about a half-hour drive north of downtown San Francisco. Called Locksley Hall, the 12,000-square-foot mansion has a wraparound veranda, and there’s a pool and a caretaker’s studio. The sale accord includes the home’s furniture, confirms listing broker Olivia Hsu Decker, co-owner of Decker Bullock Sotheby’s International Realty via RealEstateJournal

Wow thats amazing. What could you possibly do with 12000 sq ft. I’m amazed at who buys these homes. How did they do it.
