A MANSION which used to belong to a wealthy Hampshire businessman has gone on the market.

The house, Curbridge Heights, Botley Road, Curbridge, near Botley, belonged to Robert Bull, the chief executive of bungalow provider Royalelife.

The property is now up for sale after Mr Bull filed for bankruptcy at the end of last year. The house is being sold through estate agents Taylor Hill & Bond for £6.25m.

According to a listing on the Taylor Hill & Bond website, Curbridge Heights features six bedrooms, eight bathrooms and 10 reception rooms.

Other features include six double garages, indoor leisure facilities including a pool with a steam room and spa, a gym, and a games room with a three-lane bowling alley.

As previously reported, Robert Bull is reported to have declared bankruptcy at the end of last year, with The Mirror reporting that he is £725m in debt. Alongside this, Royalelife is reported to have collapsed as a business, with Mr Bull’s collection of supercars – including three Lamborghinis and a 211mph Ferrari – also having been seized.

Mr Bull voluntarily left the property to FRP Advisory, with the company taking possession on Sunday, June 30. Security staff are guarding the premises.

An article in The Mirror says that Mr Bull has blamed this bankruptcy, the second he has filed in the course of his lifetime, on a “campaign of hate” by the Kinahan drug cartel, an organised crime gang in Dublin.

Hampshire police have been in touch with Mr Bull over the allegations, with a spokesperson telling The Mirror that enquiries are ongoing.
