Sonam Kapoor and businessman-husband Anand Ahuja are planning to relocate to a new home in London. According to a Bloomberg report, Anand's father, Harish Ahuja, who owns and runs an apparel empire, has just paid £21 million ($27 million) for a home in London’s Notting Hill, marking ‘one of this year’s biggest UK residential deals that defied a wider slowdown in luxury sales’.
More about the property
As per the report, according to a UK filing, Harish bought the eight-story residential convent in July, and his son Anand and daughter-in-law Sonam plan to use part of the sprawling property as the couple’s home following redevelopment, while a separate section of the building is likely to be converted into flats.
The property – offering more than 20,000 square feet of space – is a short walk from Kensington Gardens and was previously owned by a UK-registered charity and religious order, according to a brochure, reported Bloomberg.
Sonam's current London house
Sonam keeps sharing a glimpse of her current home in London, also located in Notting Hill. Back in 2021, she spoke to Architectural Digest India about her and Anand's intimate, art-filled London home and studio.
The actor, who weclomed son Vayu in August 2022, had said, "This is a sanctuary for us, and for those we love, rather than a showcase home. It is not large but it makes an impact.”
She had added, “Anand and I decided very early on that I would take the reins with the design of our home. I saw us both growing in this space for years to come and that feeling informed the level of detail Rooshad and I have gone into... nothing is quite as beautiful and pristine as solid-wood flooring. It opened up the space and we laid down precious rugs that tie the rooms together. Being barefoot is a joy here.”
Sonam also keeps sharing pictures of her massive family home in Delhi and her and Anand's grand apartment in Mumbai. Sonam was last seen in Blind (2023).
