Completed only in 2002, this Denton County, Tex., mansion is owned by Alan Goldfield, retired chairman and chief executive of global cell phone wholesaler CellStar, and his wife, Shirley Goldfield. Champ d'Or (French for "field of gold," a play on the owner's name) is 48,000 square feet and has a tearoom, garden room, ballroom and mini-theater. Rumor has it that the Goldfields decided to sell after a fight over who would get up from bed and trek to the kitchen to get some ice cream. (Shirley disputed that suggestion in published reports, saying they just didn't need a showcase mansion any longer.) The property has seen a number of interested buyers and gawkers--Oprah Winfrey wanted to shoot the home for a segment, but the owners weren't interested. The home is listed with Sotheby's International Realty and Briggs-Freeman Real Estate Brokerage.

2nd most expensive house in the south..........
