If you know any footballers with a love of art deco design, you might want to point them in the direction of White Gables in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire.
Why? Well from the outside, it looks like a stylish art deco home say in three quarters of an acre of land. But look up close and you’ll see an over-stylised interior and a seriously high price, both of which will appeal to your average Premier League player – and leave the rest of us running a mile.
In terms of specifics, the house offers four bedrooms, four receptions, a study/bedroom, kitchen/breakfast room, four en-suits, two ‘dressing’ rooms, a garage for two cars and a swimming pool complex.
Obviously we’re just going by the images on the estate agent’s website, so we could be wrong in thinking that most of the period features have been replaced by something more bland – but we suspect that is the case. And to be honest, for an asking price of £2.9 million, we would expect ‘money can’t buy’ period features by the bucket load.

Oh my God that interior is truly awful, would need a large fire to burn those awful curtains and that dining table and chairs is straight out of Howard’s Way.
Is this the house that has been used in many episodes of Poirot?
I’m guessing not with that interior – unless the ‘gutting’ of the house was a recent thing.
I think it was the interior space in Poirot series, but they owner have obviously ‘updated’ it.
