IOL reports: "The ward 54 councillor, Nicola Jowell, said the house itself was a mystery."
Reports state that the mansion last sold in 2012 for a sizeable R6,750,000 and boasts eight bedrooms and 13 bathrooms.
It's a paradise that includes a gym, squash court, sauna (for those stressful billionaire days), wine cellar, whisky bar, cinema, billiards room, library, Olympic-size pool, car wash, and parking space for over 14 cars.
Oof, and we thought Jojo Robinson's walk-in closet was fancy!
