Singer Robbie Williams has bought late filmmaker Michael Winner's plush London pad for USD 17.5 million.

The 'Candy' hitmaker reportedly snapped up the late film director's grade II listed Woodland House in Holland Park, west London, in order to give his daughter Theodora 'Teddy' Rose a quintessentially English home, reported Contactmusic.

The 39-year-old star and his wife Ayda Field have been searching for a London pad for over a year while living in Los Angeles.

The plush abode is fitted with a cinema room, swimming pool, and its own editing suite.

According to reports, flamboyant filmmaker Winner, who died at the house earlier this year aged 77, once complained there were more than 3,400 electric bulbs in the spacious property.
 

Andrew Langton, chairman of Aylesford estate agents, said, "The most important thing is that Woodland House has gone to a family and not a developer, which is really what Winner wanted. That was an absolute priority so everyone is happy. I'm sure Michael will be looking down with a smile.
