Wayne Newton’s home in Vegas on market for $70m

The lavish estate that was home to King of Las Vegas Wayne Newton is on the market for $70 million (Dh257 million).

The 16-hectare property, which is several kilometres southeast of the Las Vegas Strip, was listed by Sotheby’s on Monday.

Newton lost the property in bankruptcy to CSD LLC, headed by investors Lacy and Dorothy Harber. A representative for the Harbers says a few members of the royal family of Saudi Arabia have enquired about the property.

In flusher days, the crooner’s “Casa de Shenandoah” property featured flamingos, South African penguins and Arabian horses.
