Hugh Grant has certainly lived the high life and now his incredible former bachelor pad is on the market.
The stunning top-floor apartment in Petersham House, Harrington Gardens, in the heart of South Kensington, is one of the most sought-after penthouses in London with the most breath-taking surroundings.
Views from the roof terrace include the Victoria & Albert and the Natural History museums, the London Eye, the Shard and a number of other landmarks.
This amazing ex Hugh Grant property also boasts a jacuzzi big enough for SIX people, with dark American walnut wood throughout the rooms, the finest marble in its en suite bathrooms and seven custom-made crystal chandeliers.
Photographs of the home also show silk-satin curtains in some of the rooms, a state-of-the-art gym and surround-sound televisions perfect for the ultimate man-about-town.
About A Boy star,Hugh Grant,bought the pad in 2002 for a whopping £3.25 million and sold it a year later for an eye-watering £3.5 million - reportedly leaving his neighbours gutted.
One of them said: "The removal vans took away all his belongings, including his golf club. But the real loss was seeing his Aston Martin Vanquish drive away."
Hugh's beloved automobile cost £160,000 to build and could travel at speeds of up to 190mph, according to the Daily Telegraph newspaper.
He later bought an equally incredible home, Melksham Court in the Cotswolds, a £2 million medieval mansion close to former flame Liz Hurley.
