If you're planning to buy a home in one of the most expensive housing markets in America, come prepared to shell out over $1 million — or $2 million, or $3 million — for a four-bedroom.
Coldwell Banker recently released its annual Home Listing Report, which ranks the most expensive places to purchase homes in America, and the top 25 locations boast average listing prices no less than seven figures.
To determine the most expensive cities, Coldwell Banker analyzed the average listing price of more than 50,000 four-bedroom, two-bathroom homes for the period between January 2016 and June 2016. The ranking covered 2,168 markets across the US, excluding any with fewer than 10 listings.
From backyard pools to mountain views to granite countertops galore, here's what a four-bedroom home looks like in the 25 most expensive housing markets across America.
