Paul Young lives in a peaceful area in London

Paul Young is best known as a singer and musician who started his career in the 1980s.

He was born on the outskirts of London and later moved to a quiet suburb in the city.


Paul had a home in Mill Hill which is a historical suburb in north London.

During an interview, Paul spoke of his property and explained the top floor of his house is where he could get away and "make a bit of noise".

Mill Hill is just 10 miles from Charing Cross but it has a quiet village feel compared to the hustle and bustle of the city.

There is lots of green space in the area for Britons looking to get out in nature.

Aldenham Country Park is a short 15 minute drive away and is a 175-acre parkland and woodland with a farm.

Living in the north London spot does not come cheap, however.

Properties in Mill Hill have cost an average of £749,471 in the last year.

Most of the sales have been flats, according to Rightmove, and they sold for an average price of £467,619.

Terraced properties fetch around £564,753 and semi-detached homes sold for £725,379.

Singers like Paul Young will often travel the world with their work.

However, many choose to buy properties in quieter parts of the UK.

Status Quo star Francis Rossi lived in a nine-bedroom home in a 'tranquil' part of the UK.

He owned a home in Purley, near Surrey, that soared in value.

Bee Gees star Barry Gibb owned a £3.5million home in a beautiful English village.
