Regent’s Park Mansion Sold for £139M in One of UK’s Largest Property Deals

The historic 40-bedroom estate, previously owned by Saudi royals, was sold at a significant discount after being repossessed due to an expired loan.

The Holme, a 40-bedroom mansion in Regent’s Park, London, has been sold for £139 million, making it one of the largest property sales in UK history.
Previously owned by members of the Saudi royal family, the property was repossessed after a £160 million loan expired, leading to its sale at a 44% discount from its original £250 million asking price.
The buyer is reportedly an unnamed American tech billionaire who acquired the property through Zedra, a Luxembourg-based corporate services firm, obscuring their identity.
The mansion, built in 1818, features nearly 30,000 square feet of living space, a private garden, eight garages, and a design inspired by the White House, earning it the nickname 'London’s White House.'
The sale highlights a growing trend of American billionaires purchasing luxury London properties, despite declining demand in the city’s prime housing market.
