One of the most expensive villas in the Czech Republic, a modern architectural landmark on Baba near Prague, has been sold to a businessman with outstanding claims, Hospodářské noviny reported on February 23, 2026.
The villa, completed in 2023 and designed by architect Radan Hubička, had been on the market as one of the priciest properties in the country for several months. Details regarding the buyer’s identity were initially limited, but reporting indicates the purchaser is a businessman involved in ongoing legal proceedings related to financial claims.
The sale follows a similar recent transaction in Prague, where the villa of Anthony Denny, founder of the AAA Auto dealership, in Troja, found a novel owner after eight years on the market, according to Hospodářské noviny reporting from December 22, 2025. Both properties represent high-end real estate investments within the city.
Hospodářské noviny’s reporting on the sale occurs as the Czech state prepares to finance its state debt, anticipating a budget deficit of 310 billion Czech crowns for the current year. The government of Andrej Babiš will need to borrow to cover the shortfall if the proposed budget is approved.
