neighbours are the Duchess of York, Elton John, and, at nearby Windsor
Castle, the Queen. So, what exactly would you get for your money? Well,
you know, just the basic:

[/list]
[b]IS THAT ALL?[/b]
Don’t be silly. The master bedroom has its own swimming pool accessed
by a private glass lift. The roof has an infinity pool and hot tub
encased by a glass barrier that allowed sky and water to meet. The
reception hall occupies a footprint larger than most five-bedroom
houses. It is dominated by marble columns and a sweeping double
staircase modelled on one owned by fashion designer Versace.
[b]So, who owns this little shack?[/b]
Apparently the proud owner of Updown Court is multi-billionaire crown
prince of Dubai, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. The racehorse
owner, who already owns a property in Chertsey in Surrey, is expected
to entertain official guests at the mansion.
