Anthony Joshua is finally preparing to move out of his mum’s flat after getting a taste of the high life in a £27million mansion.
He wants to stay in London and has already tested the water by renting the incredible seven-bedroom mansion.
A source close to the star told the Sunday Mirror: “Anthony has begun looking for a home of his own.
"He’s determined to weigh up all his options rather than make any rash decisions, but the search is on.
“He knows it’s a big decision and he wants to make sure he buys the right place.”
Joshua, 26 – being tipped to earn £1billion over his career – still regards mum Yeta’s former council flat in north-west London, as home.
However, he did rent the £80,000-a-month mansion in posh St John’s Wood for a spell.
The home – decorated with chandeliers and paintings by French artist Viviane Cisinski – was bought for £27million by South African diamond trader Walter Hennig, 44, in 2012.
The luxury home includes a salt grotto as part of a state-of-the-art spa, gym and indoor pool complex, plus a wine cellar, cinema and two staff bedrooms.
The master suite, with his and hers dressing areas, occupies the first floor.
Dad-of-one Joshua bought his mum’s flat for £174,000 after turning pro in 2013.
It is understood he also paid for a £500,000 flat in nearby Finchley for his ex Nicole Osbourne, 27, and son Joseph, 18-months.
The source added: “AJ is a down-to-earth guy and isn’t getting carried away. But beating Klitschko catapulted him into a different league and he’s decided it’s time to branch out into a place of his own.
“He has a large budget and wants to buy somewhere he can call home for years to come. He won’t be rushed and is determined to make the right choice.”
