The sale of a $46.5 million mansion in London is the city’s first super-prime property deal of 2025; a super-prime property is one that is deemed exceptional and is located in a desired area.
Known as the Belgravia mansion on Wilton Crescent, the dwelling was home to the Earls of Bessborough, and most recently, financier Glenn Maud. The latter commissioned Robert Kline, King Charles III’s decorator, to design the home’s interiors.
