Bill Gates House Tour 2020 (Inside and Outside) | Inside His Multi Million Dollar Home Mansion

Bill Gates House Tour Bill Gates, Microsoft co-founder and one of the richest men in the world with a net worth of $85.9 billion, has one of the most expensive house. The mansion, called as Xanadu 2.0, which overlooks Lake Washington in Medina, is named after the fictional character's estate of Citizen Kane. The 66,000 square feet massive mansion was designed by Bolin Quincy Jackson and Cutler Anderson, architects of Bainbridge Island, known for its high-tech details. The mansion, which took seven years to build, is worth $124.99 million as of 2017, according to the King County Public Accessories Office. In 1988, Gates purchased the property for $2 million, and now it is worth $124.99 million. The mansion has only seven bedrooms, but it has 24 bathrooms, including 10 full baths and six kitchens. Gates has also built a 2,100-square-foot library that has a domed roof and two secret bookcases. The library wall also has a quote from the great Gatsby that reads, He had come a long way to this blue lawn, and his dream must have seemed so close that he could hardly fail to grasp it. Not only he has bathrooms, but also his garage is so big that it can accommodate 23 cars. One of the interesting parts of the garage is that it has an underground cave, which is made of concrete and stainless steel, and it can park 10 cars at a time. The swimming pool is 60 feet by 17 feet and has its own underwater music system. A glass wall separates indoor and outdoor pool, and you can swim underneath the glass wall to come to the outdoor terrace. The grandfather of modern computer technology. It's no wonder that Bill Gates' mansion has incredibly futuristic technology, the kind of tech they would put in a movie specifically to indicate that the person who owns this house is very rich. Using sensors and wearable technology, guests of Zanata 2.0 are able to change the lighting, music, and temperature in a room. This works with the help of an electronic pin that is placed on the guests' clothes when they enter the house. There are also speakers behind the wallpaper in every room to ensure that you can take your music with you to any room in the house. That's all still impressive for today's times. For the late 90s when Gates was finally able to move in, it likely seemed downright revolutionary. Zanata 2.0 is an earth-sheltered house, meaning that it's built into its surroundings to regulate temperature more efficiently. Microsoft holds an auction each year where employees donate products and services to be bid on. Proceeds go to the company's charitable fund. Gates has donated private tours of Zanata 2.0 in the past. According to the Puget Sound Business Journal, a Microsoft employee once won the tour with a bid of $35,000.
