'Extras' / BBC
Ricky Gervais is moving into a new house - a huge £2.5 million luxury property in one of London's most exclusive areas.
The comedian is taking a leap up the property ladder after making millions from The Office and Extras both here and in the US. He is moving into the new north London property early next year with long-term partner, television producer Jane Fallon.
According to The Sun the home is stylishly decorated, has underfloor heating, balconies, a large garden and a room dedicated to watching television. Gervais told the paper he was looking forward to living close to friend and broadcaster Jonathan Ross.
“It’s near Jonathan’s," he commented. "I’ve got a pool planned and he’s got a miniature golf course — so we’re both well sorted.”
A source said the star was moving out of central London into an exclusive area populated by the rich and famous. He said: “Ricky has been living right in the heart of London’s West End for years.
“He’s often spotted out jogging in the morning. But he wanted to get a place which is a little more secluded and not so hectic," continued the source. “So he’s moving in to the heart of the celebrity belt.”
