Legendary Singer George Michael’s Home Sold For 3.4 Million Pounds
Legendary singer George Michael’s home in Goring-on-Thames, Oxfordshire has sold been sold for 3.4million pounds to a local couple.
Michael has sold over 115 million records worldwide making him one of the best-selling music artists of all time.
He was widely known for his success in the 1980s and 1990s, including Wham! singles such as “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go” and “Last Christmas” and solo singles such as “Careless Whisper” and “Faith”
The 16th century property was sold last month, according to Land Registry documents obtained by Mirror.co.uk.
Michael passed away in the residence on Christmas Day in 2016, and the place has since become a popular spot for his fans to visit and pay tributes.
Many of his followers had appealed to turn the building into a museum dedicated to Michael’s life and legacy.
“We can confirm that we have now sold George’s former home in Goring-on-Thames. It was a place that he loved, not least for the privacy that it afforded him. We would therefore kindly ask that the new owners have their privacy respected and are able to enjoy the property as he did,” said lawyer John Reid, who acts on behalf of the singer’s estate and family.
Michael bought the property in 2001.
