BBC: A luxury mansion in north-west London has been sold for £50m, estate agents have revealed.

Toprak Mansion in Bishops Avenue, Hampstead, boasts seven bedrooms, seven kitchens, an 80ft salon, a swimming pool and a two acre garden.

The new owner, who does not want to be identified, is planning to spend £30m "improving" the home, and installing a beauty salon, spa, and 35-seat cinema.

The property was originally built by Turkish businessman Halis Toprak.

However, it is thought he only lived in it for two days.

Other features of the mansion include a Turkish bath for 20 people, a glass lift, and a swimming pool with a glass bridge, and following the improvements will also include a squash court. Luxury mansion is sold for £50m >>>
