Roman Abramovichs new PS250m villa is worlds most expensive house!
Chelsea Football Club owner Roman Abramovichs new home has become the most expensive house on earth, after he paid a whopping 250 million pounds for it. The Russian billionaire recently picked up the majestic hilltop villa overlooking the French Riviera after falling in love with it during a private viewing along with his girlfriend Daria Zhukova.
The villa, called La Leopolda is know not only to have the best sea views in the south of France, but it also sits on 10 acres of immaculate grounds that run right down to the resort of Villefranche.
It also has the added attraction of being just a stones throw from Monte Carlo, reports the Daily Express.
Previous owners of the villa, originally built for Belgian king Leopolds mistresses, include late banking magnate Edmund Safra, Microsoft founder Bill Gates and Fiat tycoon Gianni Agnelli.
Abramovichs purchase means that he will now be making a monthly payment of 1.6 million pounds to pay its mortgage.
The new addition adds to a list of Abramovichs lengthy list of real estate.
He already owns the 15million pounds Chateau de la Croe just down the road from La Leopolda. The Chateau was where former British monarch the Duke of Windsor fled with Wallace Simpson in 1938.
Apart from these two, Abramovich also has properties in Knightsbridge, Sussex and Russia. (ANI)
