Win Powerball? You could buy these 4 expensive NJ homes 10 times over

If you won the Powerball, what would you do with all that money?

The ever-growing jackpot is pretty astounding — up to $1.3 billion as of Sunday, with a cash value of $806 million. It's likely to grow quite a bit more.

So let's say you hit it big and wound up with about $1 billion in your pocket (that's an awfully large pocket). With that kind of money, you could buy four of the most expensive homes being offered for sale in New Jersey 10 times over.

That's right — add them up, and they come to a measly $100 million or so. That's nothing for a big spender like you.

We've already featured one of the homes before — a $40 million Long Branch property along the water, with 10 bedrooms and 8 baths (plus two half-baths). It's a 14,000 square foot, three-story, four-garage grand chateau on Ocean Avenue, described by Diane Turton Realtors as a “true masterpiece of French inspired architecture,” designed by architect and designer Anthony Ingrao.

But maybe that's not your kind of style.

Head over to 2 Frick Drive in Alpine and take a look at the six-bed, eight-bath home there, located in the private gated Estates at Alpine. It includes a 13,000 square-foot English manor-style residence, a carriage house, English gardens, an aviary, and a private stocked pond. It was renovated 25 years ago and boasts classic Palladian influences, sitting on nearly 13 acres. That'll set you back an asking price of $27,800,000.

Maybe you're pinching your pennies. That $1 billion goes fast.

So for a measly $16,500,000, you might be interested in 76 West River Road in Rumson, along the Navesink River. The family compound that consists of the main house with four additional outbuildings, an award-winning tennis court, a putting green and a pool area, all on 9.14 acres of botanical like gardens.

For a smidge less, 450 Claremont Road in Bernardsville, with its seven beds and 13 baths (eight full, five half), is nice, too. The mansion on 32 acres of the Bernardsville mountain, includes a carriage house as well. It's been restored and renovated with an eye toward merging the original 1886 residence with modern amenities. Like to work out? A  gymnasium with a full basketball court and exercise loft is sited near the mansion.

Now what are you going to do with the other $900 million?
