Indian businessman Mukesh Ambani, his wife Nita and three children are set to move into the world's most expensive house.
Home sweet home will be a 27-floor designer building in Mumbai, complete with three helipads, 600 staff, a recreation of the hanging gardens of Babylon and - but of course - its own air traffic control system.
Mr Ambani, chairman of industrial conglomerate Reliance, is India's richest man with his wealth estimated by Forbes at $27 billion.
Reliance's interests span from oil and gas to telecommunications.
All told, the family home measures - or 37,161 square metres (or about 400,000 square feet in the old currency).
NBR's crack team of mathematicians has calculated that's 80,000 square feet per family member, meaning Mr Ambani is unlikely to win a carbon-emission medal from Greenpeace any time soon.
