It’s a 5000m3 double-floor basement with spa, commercial kitchen, nightclub room, cinema, swimming pool, gym, sauna and hair salon, with interior design by Nicola Fontanella.
As he enters the spa area, Tinie jokes with the owner: "You must have taken all the marble out of Italy for this place."
"Near enough!" Babaee then laughs.
"I've been to some spas in my time, Kam, but this is next level," the rapper adds.

Tinie later takes a walk in the unfilled pool, telling the owner: "Yes! Wow! You know from this point you can actually get a great sense of how far you've dug down. Being able to dig this deep and still having all the light that you've got in her. Can I just say, you've definitely done it. I haven't seen anything like this! I'm standing in the best pool I've ever been in. There's no water in it and I'm still satisfied."
Also in the episode, Tinie meets with a couple in Hertfordshire, who double the footprint of their grade II listed gate lodge, to the size of 3 double decker busses, with an enormous subterranean extension.
