Marc Bell, a financier, producer, and former CEO of adult networking site FriendFinder Networks (best-known as the corporate parent of Penthouse), is selling his massive South Florida home. At $35 million, it's the most expensive home ever listed in the city of Boca Raton, an affluent enclave north of Miami.
The eight-bedroom Mediterranean-style house is obviously beautiful from the outside, but don't let its stylish facade deceive you; inside, there's an extensive re-creation of the starship Enterprise along with plenty of other "Star Trek" memorabilia.
There's also a "Call of Duty" room, basketball court, and 2,000-square-foot ballroom turned arcade. This mansion has a little something for everyone.
Douglas Elliman's Senada Adzem Bernard is partnering with Oren and Tal Alexander on the listing.
Bell's home is a jaw-dropping 27,000 square feet.
The front door has beautiful Mediterranean details, and palm trees shade the entryway. But don't let the classic exterior fool you.
Let's start with the unbelievable home theater.
It was designed to be a copy of the bridge in the starship Enterprise, complete with original sound effects for the opening and closing of the doors. Notice the U.S.S. Bell sign above the doorway.
They even put thousands of stars in the ceiling to make it look like the real thing.
This 2,000-square-foot ballroom was converted into a massive arcade.
It currently houses more than 60 games dating to the '70s.
And, of course, there are a few "Star Trek" and "Star Wars" games.
Just in case you were worried about getting bored, there's also a room dedicated to playing "Call of Duty."
Back upstairs, things are a little more demure. You'll notice a Warhol work on the wall.
This sitting area is formal, but it still seems comfortable.
This living room, on the other hand, seems to be dedicated to Mickey.
The kitchen is massive.
And dinner guests have a variety of seats to choose from.
The dining room is set for a more formal occasion.
Upstairs, the master bedroom is large and luxurious.
Outside, there's a beautiful pool area for when the Florida heat becomes overwhelming.
You can play chess if you want.
The lounge area looks like a hotel.
There's enough outdoor dining space to accommodate a big group.
This fully stocked bar is great for pool parties.
There's a home gym.
And there's a basketball court that's great for pick-up games. Not seen here is the football field, built to 50% scale.
