A source close to the public notary told the Olive Press tonight: “He put down 5% last month and completed this week.

“It’s a great deal for an amazing and unique home on Marbella’s famous Golden Mile.

“I can’t tell you exactly how much it went for but it was over €30million.”

He added: “He’s a great addition to Marbella and there are plenty of other big fish circling around to buy this summer.”

El Bosque was owned by a British man from the north of England. It sits on a plot of more than 4,000sqm and boasts incredible sea views.

The house itself is spread over 1,500sqm and has two floors and a basement level, plus a heated outdoor swimming pool and cinema room.

There is also a bar, eight bedrooms and bathrooms and an impressive garden.

It gets its name El Bosque – meaning the forest in Spanish – dur to the huge trees that encircle the property.
