A historic six-bedroom Mayfair mansion has sold for ‘just’ $39 million after being on the market for two years and having $11 million knocked off the asking price.
The lavish property on Stanhope Gate, near Park Lane, comes complete with a swimming pool, steam room and cinema with whisky bar.
Details lodged with the Land Registry show it was bought by a British Virgin Islands-registered company at the start of November for $38.8 million, reports the Evening Standard.
However once fees and stamp duty are accounted for the total cost of the six-story Grade II listed home is expected to be close to $45 million.
The property was built around 1757 in the reign of George II and many period features remain. After the Second World War, it was converted into a banking hall and offices.
