Billionaire Abramovich's New £150mn London Home

December 29, 2010 - London

Roman Abramovich has purchased all nine flats of a prime London block with Harvey Nichols and Harrods as their corner shops,the London Daily Mail reports.

Spread across two stucco-fronted properties in Knightsbridge in London, the eight-bedroom building is expected to be worth up to £150million.

The massive home extends three storeys underground and has a swimming pool, staff apartments and 30,000 square feet of space

The development, over five storeys above ground and three basement levels, boasts a cinema/entertainment room, an indoor pool, steam room and sauna, as well as a children's study and entertainment room.

All six family bedrooms have en suite bathrooms, as do the two guest rooms.

In a linked mews development behind the main building, four flats above a multicar garage will be used as staff accommodation.

The total size is 30,000 sq feet, five times the area of a normal five-bedroomed family home.

The home is currently two adjoining townhouses, which were split into nine apartments in 1998.

Abramovich has been patiently acquiring the flats in the buildings since the late '90s, the paper reveals, and just recently closed on the last one.
