www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/126717887#/?channel=RES_BUY I really love it. I think I would be scared though so you’d all have to move in with me!

I think it said in the paper it’s newly renovated. I love the bathroom with the microcement.

I thought the escort was New York?

Round the corner from my oldest friend's parents' house!

That's my favourite bit of London...I love Hampstead...

i thought it was a flat in Camdend

He'll be loaded with all the royalties going back to the songs he wrote in the 80s. He's also still DJIng and has written hundreds of songs for other artists.

Georgeskitchen · 21/09/2022 19:52

Karma chameleon probably paid for that 😉😉 I wasn't aware he wrote for other artists

As I understood it, the whole property had been previously split up into flats/maisonettes/smaller houses. Boy George owned the largest central section (that was still a house) and he has gradually added to it, eg buying the part that Sam Smith once owned eventually turning it back into one house....

But I could be wrong!

User12398712 · 21/09/2022 19:56

What on earth is photo 13? Is that where he chains up the escorts?

I think he’s decorated many times I remember when it was full of Buddhas and alters.

I remember that too. Indoor water features and Buddha. Beautiful.

Maybe he moved out a while ago and has been renting it to fellow pop stars. I'd definitely change the lights in the hall though. I'd have fuck off chandeliers.

Ah, crossed post.

Before I pressed on the article I knew all that about his house. I was such a fan girl in the 80’s. Wasn’t there a gothic recording studio in that area too?

Not so much. That's a walk in wardrobe (the ladder reaches the cupboards on the top level).

EachandEveryone · 21/09/2022 20:03

He loved that house I doubt he rented it out. I hope he’s not retiring to a thatched cottage. I also hope he’s not moving to LA to be with Dorris and that blinking husband 😀 that’s for RHOBH fans!

There's The Church in Crouch End. Near-ish?

ARoyalSubject · 21/09/2022 20:06

It can't be the Sam Smith we are thinking of as BG has owned it for decades. I often walk past.
I don't think it's the entire building - maybe Sam Smith owns another wing?

toddlingtortoise · 21/09/2022 20:07

He has lived there forever and would have paid a fraction of the price for it, Sam smith may have lived there with him but it has been boy George’s house since Culture Club days so probably about 40 years

I dunno OP, George with a blacked out neck, fuck off hat and prayer beads would be quite The Thing at a village WI fête! Bet he'd be amazing at the annual marrow competition!

Ah...that makes sense...I am not rich enough to have ever lived anywhere with a walk in wardrobe so wouldn't recognise one if I tripped over the ladder.

Was this the house where the escort stuff happened?

I was wondering if that radiator was still there.

Brendabigbaps · 21/09/2022 20:09

Tiny kitchen though.

RhubarbFairy · 21/09/2022 20:11

That bathroom in the tower is glorious. They pucked an excellent day for the photos.
