With a £175m price tag, property developer Nick Candy’s penthouse at One Hyde Park is in a league of its own. For those who collect homes like trophies, this is the blingiest in the cabinet. It’s the UK’s most expensive apartment. But can it possibly be worth it?
Well, for your £175m (payment by Bitcoin or Ethereum accepted – Candy has said he thinks they’re the next “big opportunity” in property), you get 18,000 sq ft of two-storey, lateral luxury overlooking Hyde Park. There are five huge bedroom suites and an octagonal marble bathroom fit for an oligarch. There’s all the fun stuff too, of course: the champagne room and golf simulator, spa, gym, media room and so on.
