Christian Candy Buys £9m Surrey Mansion To Expand Estate

An Irish newspaper is reporting that property mogul Christian Candy has spent £9m on a mansion in Surrey.

The Irish Times says that Gayle Killilea, the estranged wife of bankrupt Irish developer Sean Dunne, sold Belgravia House in Englefield Green in February for €10.2m (£9m). It says public records show it was sold to Christian Candy.

It adds that the house is one of several properties that have previously been referenced in a complex legal action in the US, taken by Mr Dunne’s American bankruptcy trustee, who claimed that he transferred tens of millions of euros in assets to his wife.

The newspapers says it believes that now the property is in Christian Candy’s ownership he plans to redevelop it and add it to his adjacent estate.
