Wham! superfans, this one’s for you. While George Michael sadly died aged 53 in 2016, there’s a new opportunity to get up close and personal with the pop legend, as fans can now rent the luxury pool house attached to Michael’s former Oxfordshire home. 

The gorgeous one-bed property in Goring-on-Thames has recently been added to Airbnb and features a heated outdoor swimming pool (of course), large gardens, a BBQ and a big fireplace. Such luxury doesn’t come cheap, though. One night at the pool house will set you back £550. 

That said, the reviews for the Airbnb are glowing. Guests have called it ‘extremely peaceful’, ‘a secluded little piece of heaven’ and an ‘idyllic little hideaway’. In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, George himself called the pool house ‘wonderful’. 

A source told the Sun: ‘It’s been very popular with fans of the singer who are grateful of the opportunity to experience George’s home first hand.’ Here’s a little glimpse of the property and garden.
