一年前买下最贵豪宅 戴森如今亏逾1千万元出售

去年6月,本地媒体关注Dyson 创办人詹姆士·戴森,砸重金买下位于华利世家(Wallich Residence)的三层顶层豪宅,轰动一时。
该豪宅在华利世家第62层楼至64层楼,面积约2万1108平方英尺,豪宅内含各种豪华设施如私人游泳池、按摩浴、烤肉餐区与私人电梯。当然价格也让我们市井小民望楼兴叹,叫价7千380万新元。
事实上,戴森在去年1月,曾宣布将公司大本营由英国转移到新加坡。戴森夫妇也已成为新加坡永久居民,他们无需支付外国人在地置产的额外税款。
不过,如今又有消息指出,戴森现在以6千200万元的价格,将豪宅卖出,亏了1千180万元。然而,戴森公司仍坚称,该公司仍致力在新加坡进行研发和其他业务。
原来,戴森在去年7月,也曾以逾4千万元的价格,买下植物园古鲁尼路(Cluny Road)的优质洋房。
据了解, 购下戴森华利世家豪宅的,是在印尼出生、目前是美国公民的大亨廖凯原(Leo KoGuan)。他是美国廖凯原基金会主席,以及美国国际软件屋公司(SHI)的创办人和主席。在今年的”福布斯全球亿万富豪榜“,排名第1513位,身家14亿美元。
