Britain’s most expensive home has gone up for sale, and as you can imagine, it won't come cheap to the new owners.
The gorgeous Georgian mansion, which boasts 40-bedrooms, has been put on the market by its current Saudi Arabian owners.
They have been in possession of the property since the 1980s, however it seems like they are finally ready to depart with the 29,000-square-feet home.

Despite costing you an arm and a leg, the property does come with its own tennis court, library, sauna and luxury lifts to help you get between floors.
The fancy gaff has even got its own name – The Holme.
Talking about the property, a source told the Standard: “It’s the White House in Regent’s Park.
“It’s very special, because you’ve got the ornamental lake, sweeping lawns and this magnificent rear façade which looks like the rear façade of the White House. It’s the most incredible property.”
The Holme’s sale is being handled by Beauchamp Estates and Knight Frank. Those who want to buy it will need to dig deep though, as it comes with a guide price of offers over £250 million. Yes, you that correctly – two-hundred-and-fifty-million pound.
As well as the sale price, whoever eventually buys the property will also need to fork out for its ongoing upkeep – including cleaning, staff and gardeners.
The hefty price tag eclipses the current title holder for the UK’s most expensive property, which belongs to 2-8 Rutland Gate. This is a 20-room mansion that comes with views overlooking Hyde Park, which sold for a record-setting £210 million back in 2020.
Speaking about the upcoming sale of the Holme, Trevor Abrahmsohn, from Glentree International, told the Negotiator: "This is a treasured address and properties like this don’t come up very often – it’s a once in thirty years event – remember its not the price but just the fact that it’s for sale at all that’s important to the handful of people who can afford to buy it.
"This deal illustrates in an extraordinary way the fact that our vibrant economy for many people places us at the centre of the world, and that many wealthy people want a little bit of our heritage to own themselves."
