Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin have splashed out on a six bedroom
house in Los Angeles.
The couple - who are based in London, England, with their children
Apple, eight, and six-year-old Moses - are said to have paid close to
the $10.45 million asking price for the property, which also has eight
bathrooms, floor-to-ceiling windows and a stable block built into the
tree-lined grounds.
The house was built by famed architect Windsor Smith in 2011 and was
initially listed for $11.96 million last September before being reduced
recently.
In October 2011, the 8,000 square foot property covered Veranda
magazine, with the publication calling in a host of big-name interior
designers to give the house a makeover.
Although Martyn Lawrence's "Studio 54-Halston vibe" media room appears
to have gone, many of the features introduced appear to remain in recent
pictures of the property.
These include an extra-wide entry hall with flooring made from stones
from a Peruvian schoolhouse, kitchen cabinetry inspired by sycamore
trees, Calacatta-marble kitchen countertops and a master dressing room
with bathtub in the middle.
