Nicolas Cage forced to take his $35 million Bel Air mansion off the market

Nicholas CageHollywood star Nicolas Cage has been forced to take his Bel Air mansion off the market after buyers refused to meet the whopping $35 million asking price.

The National Treasure actor put the 11,000-square-foot Tudor-style home up for sale more than a year ago.

Cage stood to make a huge profit after buying it for $7 million in 1988.

US reports say he had refused to lower the huge price tag, even though there were no takers.

The sprawling mansion has seven bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a front-yard fountain and an Olympic-sized swimming pool. It also boasts a library, a custom built wine cellar and a state-of-the-art security system. Previous owners include singer Tom Jones and late crooner Dean Martin.

Cage, who won a best actor Oscar for 'Leaving Las Vegas', owns a string of properties around the world. They reportedly include a castle in Bavaria and a private island in the Bahamas.
