What is Christian Candy's Net Worth?
Christian Candy is a British luxury property developer and interior designer who has a net worth of $1.1 billion. Christian Candy earned fortune and fame as half of the property development/design team Candy & Candy. Candy & Candy are known for developing über-luxury condo One Hyde Park in London, one of the priciest residential projects in the world.
Christian Candy was born July 31, 1974. Along with big brother Nick, he formed Candy & Candy within which they began renovating flats and working their way up the property development ladder, eventually able to leave their regular jobs and work in real estate and design full time.
Today Candy & Candy are the property barons behind pretty much every piece of high-profile, high-end real estate built in London during the past decade. Their trademark properties boast the style of a Mayfair hotel, the technology of a James Bond automobile and the lifestyle solutions—concierges, health clubs, etc.—of a top-end holiday resort.
In the summer of 2013, Christian bought 19 East 70th Street, an Italian Renaissance-style mansion between Fifth and Madison Avenues for $35 million. A representative for Candy & Candy confirmed that they intended to convert the 17,000-square-foot house for residential use. The eight-bedroom home was last used as an art gallery. The spokesperson also said they (Candy & Candy) do not plan to live in the home, suggesting that they are likely to sell it once renovations were complete.
