Moscow, June 28: A Russian farmer could become the
proud owner of US pop diva Britney Spears' USD 7.9 million
mansion in California.
According to the Russian agency, Doki, the potential
buyer for the six-bedroom, seven-bathroom Renaissance style
home is a 48-year-old farmer from the South Russian city of
Krasnodar.
The farmer identified only by his first name 'Alexei' and
his family are expected to leave for US for viewing of the pop
star's house.
"The man has primarily been involved in agriculture for
the past 16 years. At the current time among Alexei's assets
are 1,000 hectares of land, two pig farms, horticultural
gardens and fruit and vegetable production facilities," a
press release said.
Apparently, one of the reasons he was attracted to the
property is that his three daughters are huge Britney Spears
fans.
"My daughters couldn't believe it when I told them, that
they really could live in the home of their idol," the Russian
farmer was quoted as saying in a statement by the real estate
agency.
