`Moonraker` house in southern England touted as potential Bond 22 location

09-Oct-2006 • Quantum Of Solace

Liam Gallagher will soon be able to live inside his television world fantasy - a lavish "masterpiece" he will probably never want to leave. The Oasis frontman is set to buy a house inspired by the classic TV show "Thunderbirds" - reports All Headline News.

The "Wonderwall" singer will dish out $5 million on the property in Dorset, in the South West of England, which is based upon the fictional Tracy Island featured in the cult puppet series.

The luxury pad - named "Thunderbird" - has been described as "a modern architectural masterpiece" and is located in an area dubbed "Millionaire's Row," which was designed by award-winning architectural firm Seven Developments. The home has seven bathrooms, five bedrooms, an outdoor pool, a cinema and a gym.

Neighboring houses include a property named "Moonraker," which has been short-listed as a possible location for the next James Bond film. Liam's neighbors will include England football player Sol Campbell and "Notting Hill" actor Hugh Grant.

The rocker will move into the property with his fiancée, All Saints singer Nicole Appleton, and their four-year-old son Gene.

One resident told Britain's Daily Express newspaper, "I can see why Liam would want to buy here. It's special and lots of families have come here after getting stressed by life in the city."
