This property not only contains 21 bedrooms, but also offers 25 bathrooms, an indoor pool and hot tub plus a nightclub.

When it was sold 18 years ago, it broke the record for the most expensive house ever sold in the Farmington area. Of course, it is not difficult to know why.

Above all, this 50,000-square-foot residence features several game rooms, green screen rooms, and a recording studio - a very useful addition for someone like 50 Cent.

The splendor of this house can already be felt when we enter through the front gate. The place where visitors are greeted by a lion statue.

Inside, the décor is distinctive for an extraordinary property, with stunning white walls, marble floors and wood panels throughout.

The extraordinary finish extends to the bedroom, with a walk-in wardrobe, en suite bathroom and large bathtub overlooking the garden.

On the outside, the grounds have everything you would expect from a Rp.65.6 billion luxury home. There is a basketball court, a guest house, an outdoor swimming pool complete with a cave and a beautiful lake.

The property also features a gambling room featuring poker and roulette tables, so Las Vegas's bright lights never seem too far away.

With all the outstanding features of this house, this former Tyson house certainly requires serious maintenance at a high cost.

50 Cent complains that the property costs £ 50,000 a month to maintain. The rapper ended up selling the place for a much lower price than he paid Iron Mike.

Even though it has been on the market for 12 years with an asking price of £ 14 million. The American superstar gave it up for just 2.3 million pounds.

Eventually, the house was bought by US entrepreneur Casey Askar, who owns several fast food brands in the United States.
