ST. PETERSBURG — The 18th-century mansion of Count Alexander Dmitryevich Sheremetyev has been sold to a company affiliated with businessman Alisher Usmanov, Vedomosti reported.
The mansion, located on Kutuzova Naberezhnaya near Liteiny Bridge, had been used as a hotel by its previous owner, the Talion Group.
Sergei Fyodorov, general director of Praktis CB, estimated the purchase price of the site at $55 million. He said the building was better suited for corporate uses than as an investment property.
