Clinton tees up €1.2m K Club pad

FORMER US President Bill Clinton has forked out 1.2 million for a lavish apartment which he hasn’t yet viewed at The K Club in Co Kildare.

Last weekend, Mr Clinton visited the club for a few holes of golf and decided to acquire one of the 20 holiday homes built within the confines of The K Club enclave.

Some properties remain for sale, but even if you could afford the asking price, which ranges from €950,000 to €1.4 million, you would still require approval from the Jefferson Smurfit and K Club committees.
