New house Abramovich in London

About 13 months ago the Russian businessman Roman Abramovich turned to the board of prestigious London district of Chelsea and Knightsbridge with the request to give the green light to build a house worth £ 150 million. After more than a year of reflection, the district authorities were not against the billionaire venture. According to British standards, the resolution failed to rectify very quickly. Thus, Abramovich's new home will be the most expensive mansion in the British capital. Prior to this record belonged to the house on the street Kensington Palace Gardens, acquired the Indian tycoon Lakshmi Mittal this year for £ 117 million. In the mansion of Russian businessman will be eight bedrooms, a cinema room, heated indoor swimming pool with sauna. The new house will be on the site of two adjacent historic townhouses separated into nine separate apartments. Roman Abramovich systematically, year after year bought individual flats, until both houses were not entirely his. The first apartments were purchased in the late 90's for £ 1 2 million. On the whole housing ransom had gone from £ 15 to £ 20 million.
