In the capital of Great Britain, a garage is being sold for a whopping $ 1 million! The private parking space is located in a residential building in Portman Square, just around the corner from Hyde Park.
A real estate agency representing the seller advertises it as a “closed parking lot for two cars.” And he offers to buy the lot for 750 thousand pounds, which is about $ 1 million or 71 million rubles.
The dimensions given suggest that the garage can fit two compact cars or one luxury limousine, FoxNews reported.
In the vicinity of the building in which this garage is located, you can buy a small apartment for an amount only double the amount requested for parking. If the buyer wants to buy a home in the same house where he first buys a parking space, then he will have to focus on a much larger amount: at the moment there are no vacant apartments in this house, and the last registered transaction was estimated at $ 11 million.
For London, these parking prices are not sky-high. The record is the amount of $ 26 million, which was laid out for an underground garage with 80 parking spaces by a Middle Eastern billionaire.
The world record for parking for one car is still held by Hong Kong, where one parking space was sold for $ 1.3 million this summer.
