Boston Real Estate for Sale

luxury condos boston

With the influx of money from Russia and the Middle East, London has become the premier destination for luxury real estate. Read how this penthouse sold for $220 million.

A six-bedroom penthouse at London’s posh One Hyde Park development has just sold for a record-breaking £140 million, or about $220 million, making it the most expensive piece of residential real estate in the world (in terms of current listings and sales). The massive deal eclipses the paltry $150 million asking price for The Manor, Candy Spelling’s monstrous mansion in Holmby Hills, California, previous holder of the World’s Most Expensive title. While the identity of the buyer remains a closely-guarded secret, speculation is centering on oligarchs and oil sheikhs, the London Telegraph reports. The palatial penthouse stretches across two floors and boasts bullet-proof windows, a panic room and stunning views across the Serpentine lake in Hyde Park. via Luxist

Hmm….I wonder what the real estate broker commission was?
