London's most expensive house sales of 2023: from Tim Burton's glass house to Rihanna's former rental
Some of London's most expensive homes on the market found buyers this year.
Most homeowners, and would-be owners, have spent the past year agonising about interest rates and bickering about how soon is too soon to turn on the heating.
Meanwhile, in the surreal world of the international elite, ultra-high net-worth individuals have been hard at work picking up everything from sprawling Regency mansions to gigantic apartments and modern trophy houses all over the capital.
These are the most extraordinary London homes sold in 2023.
The trophy deal
£113 million
One of the biggest sales of the year was that of Hanover Lodge, a sprawling 26,000 sq ft mansion in Regent’s Park, with a £113 million price-tag — more than 220 times the cost of an average London home.
It would have been the most expensive home sold in London this year — but Aberconway House in Mayfair is reportedly about to be.
