The Holme was designed by the prominent nineteenth-century architect Decimus Burton in 1818. A relative of the architect lived on the extensive estate for a long time. The estate has two floors, an impressive 29.000 square meters of living space, eight garages, a tennis court, a library and sauna. The view is also not bad; The Holme is located on Regent's Park, one of eight royal parks in the city. The estate is expected to attract buyers from abroad. The housing market is attracting an increasing number of international buyers, with 48 percent of real estate in the city being purchased by foreign buyers last year. 

According to sources, the first viewers have already arrived. Real estate entrepreneur Nick Candy and his wife reportedly viewed the property last month. The Holme is currently still owned by Saudi Prince Khalid bin Sultan al Saud.
