The penthouse at One Hyde Park has long been owned by property tycoon Nick Candy, who developed it more than a decade ago.
If you want a home address to impress, then this prized property certainly fits the bill. The duplex penthouse located in London’s iconic One Hyde Park apartment block has hit the market for just over $215 million.
Considered a crown jewel in the city – in the heart of Knightsbridge and with sweeping views over Hyde Park and beyond – this apartment offering isn’t set to be around for long.
The price tag makes it one of the most expensive apartments for sale globally.
For many years it has been under lock and key, with property tycoon Nick Candy keeping it as his luxury London pad.
Candy built One Hyde Park more than a decade ago in collaboration with his younger brother Christian, and while he sold off other apartments in the building, he kept the pièce de résistance for himself.
Spanning 18,000 square feet across the 10th and 11th floors, the penthouse epitomizes opulence. The interiors feature a sophisticated palette of creams, golds, and silvers, enhanced by premium materials, bespoke furnishings, and meticulously crafted details.
Along with its attractive looks, this property serves up plenty of space to play with over the apartment block’s 10th and 11th floors.
In total, there are five en-suite bedrooms, each with unique marble bathrooms and generous fitted wardrobes.
The principal suite, overlooking Hyde Park, spans 2,300 square feet with twin bathrooms decked out with Jacuzzi-style jet pools and expansive dressing room areas.
Other rooms of note include the sweeping living room with soaring ceilings and the Japanese-inspired kitchen complete with black forest granite countertops, matching floors and top-of-the-range Gaggenau appliances.
A spa, gym, cocktail bar, wine cellar for 750 bottles, a media room, four storage units and heated underground parking spaces for four cars, serve as additional perks
And moving outside, there are two wrap-around terraces so you can soak up the city views from dawn to dusk.
To ensure efficient and discreet service when it comes to staff, such as security guards and nannies, there are two secondary/staff entrances, and a separate staff suite.
Designed to cater to the needs of discerning homeowners, One Hyde Park offers unparalleled service. With the Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group managing the property, residents enjoy luxury hotel services, including 24-hour room service, same-day laundry, and a dedicated team of over 80 concierge, security, and support staff.
Becky Fatemi, who is handling the listing on behalf of Sotheby’s International Realty, concludes: ‘One Hyde Park The Residences at Mandarin Oriental London is an iconic development of 86 residential apartments.
‘It’s service model goes beyond the scale of any other branded residence in London, with a dedicated team of over 80 concierge, security and support staff that draw on the legendary reputation of the world’s leading hotel group.’
