It is the perfect London pied-à-terre for a non-dom tycoon about town. A three-storey penthouse overlooking Hyde Park has been sold for £136m – becoming by far the most expensive flat ever bought in Britain.
An unnamed buyer, using lawyers in Ukraine, has bought two apartments in the newly opened One Hyde Park development in Knightsbridge that have been knocked into one to create a 25,000 sq ft (2,300 sq m) penthouse with a wine cellar and access to room service at the neighbouring Mandarin Oriental hotel, according to documents filed last week at the Land Registry.

The ONS said the drop in the cost of living was driven by falling food prices, which slipped 1.4% - the biggest month-on-month drop since between June and July 2007 -
Gordon Ramsay has reportedly moved into an £11.5m ($18.8m) home in LA.
The TV chef, who was rumoured to be permanently relocating to the States, is said to be paying £100,000 ($164,000) a month to rent the mansion in Bel Air.
Ramsay is apparently in negotiations to buy the Mediterranean-style house, which features 12 bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, a summerhouse and and "jaw-dropping views" over the ocean.
