ABBA’S “secret” mansion is finally up for sale – following decades of speculation about the Florida home.
The sprawling £3.25 million home was designed in a Swedish Long House style by the Euro-superstars themselves.
The house was built for in 1982 for the group’s members Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson and Anni-Frid Lyngstad.
The band shot to fame after winning Eurovision – which is to be hosted in the UK next year on Ukraine’s behalf – with their iconic tune Waterloo in 1974.
They lived there for just a few years, as relationship issues led to the break-up of the band the same year the house was built.
Despite the 4,527-square-foot home in Tierra Verde, Florida, US, having been rumoured to be the band’s home for more than four years, it was never confirmed.
Fans and internet sleuths have published thousands of theories about the home’s ownership online, with scores of column inches dedicated to speculation.
Rumours intensified as building work took place when a Brit journalist got hold of the architect who confirmed he had worked with two Swedish couples on the project – although he didn’t realise it was ABBA.
And historical documents show the group’s financial manager, John Spaulding, is on the original deed.
