Paris Hilton Wants to Buy a Converted Victorian Brothel
Posted by
Paris Hilton has found her dream home in London - a converted Victorian brothel.
The hotel heiress is currently in the British capital filming her new TV show Paris Hilton’s My New BBF (British Best Friend).
And she is eager to live in the UK permanently – and is determined to snap up the $1.6m stone labyrinth.
She said, “It’s just beautiful. It doesn’t have regular rooms but is more like a maze.”
A source added, “It has been a Chinese restaurant, a gin palace, an opium den and in the 19th Century it was a brothel.
“Metal joists where clients were manacled to the wall for their own pleasure have been sympathetically restored so the juicy past of the place isn’t lost.
“It’s thought that sailors, pirates and vagabonds made the short journey from the Thames to smoke opium and indulge in their wildest fantasies after months at sea.
“Paris really appreciated the quirkiness of the place – and the knockdown price for such a unique building – and immediately put in an offer.”
Hilton, 27, has previously spoken of her desire to make London her full time home.
She said, “I love it here, I am going to move here permanently. I have already been here for one month and am much, much happier here.
“I love guys with English accents.
“I have met a really cute English guy, but it’s early days.”
