Rihanna Luxurious London Mansion Has Been Sold For A Record $33.4 Million. Savills and Aston Chase, the designated agents, claim that a family from abroad purchased the Diamonds singer’s 6,332 square foot former rental on exclusive St. John’s Wood Park for an unprecedented £3,500 (about $4,250) per square foot.

Between 2018 and 2020, the creator of Fenty Beauty resided at the opulent pad for almost 2.5 years while she was in the United Kingdom. The multihyphenate billionaire businessman was paying an incredible £18,000 (or $21,870) a week to lease the property at the time.

Rihanna Luxurious London Mansion Has Been Sold For A Record $33.4 Million. “This sale is indicative of the surge in demand for super-prime homes in London from Chinese buyers,” Aston Chase co-founder Mark Pollack said in a news release.

“Many wealthy Chinese and Hong Kong residents are prioritizing a ‘Plan B’ if another unforeseen event leads to the Chinese government restricting movement,” according to the report, since they could not travel during the epidemic.

Daniel Francis, the De Beers diamond mogul, was the original owner of the white stucco palace, which was planned by famous architect John Shaw Junior and constructed in 1844 by local builder William Holme Twentyman. The completely renovated five-story house has an open-concept kitchen, a library, reception areas, and eight bedrooms—A striking 21-foot patio with views of a large backyard.

The residence’s gym, which has a weight room and an exercise studio, is a noteworthy benefit. Although it’s unclear whether the new owner wants to increase the therapeutic amenities the residence offers, authorized plans for an extra health spa with a sauna, steam room, swimming pool, and massage rooms are included.

“Savills is delighted to have introduced the buyer and successfully sold this famous house on St. John’s Wood Park in one of the biggest deals in St. John’s Wood in 2023,” said Stephen Lindsay from Savills. “This was one of the biggest deals in St. John’s Wood in 2023.”

“This is an extremely special house, the only one of royal architect John Shaw’s original villas on St. John’s Wood Park that has survived into the 21st century. It is located on St. John’s Wood Park.”

The large price that was attained demonstrates unequivocally both the worth and quality of this one-of-a-kind trophy property and the lasting attractiveness of St. John’s Wood to purchasers from the United Kingdom and from all over the globe.
