At £100 million, One Hyde Park
penthouse stands to become London's most expensive property when
the project is completed in 2010.

The project is managed by development
company, Candy & Candy, owned by brothers Christian and Nick
Candy. It features 80 flats with communal spas, squash courts and a
private wine-tasting room, and best of all, stunning views of Hyde
Park and the city.

The most expensive suites will feature
bullet-proof windows, purified air systems and “panic rooms’.
Premium services will be offered on site by the nearby Mandarin
Oriental Hotel. Home to the run-down Fifties office block Bowater
House, the Candy brothers bought the One Hyde Park site for
£150million in 2004.

As it stands, half of the units have
already been sold at an average of more than £20 million each,
with Russian oligarchs, oil barons, Saudi princes and A-list stars
reported to be among the buyers.
