Johnny Depp ready to set up house in U.K.?

Washington, Aug 6 : American actor Johnny Depp looks all set to move off to the U.K., as he has reportedly been house hunting in the English countryside.

Depp, who currently resides in France with his long-term girlfriend Vanessa Paradis and their two children, was rumoured to be looking into buying a country estate in Norfolk, England.

The rumours were fuelled when he went to view an 11 million dollars mansion just outside the East Anglian city of Norwich.

Besides looking at houses, the actor has been making friends with the local children by donating signed photographs to a neighbourhood troop of Girl Scouts, further fuelling the speculation that he is planning a move to the area.

But the reports have not been confirmed, and the real estate agent handling the property has refused to comment on the rumours that Depp has put in an offer.

"We can't confirm who we've been talking to about the estate," Contactmusic quoted the agent as saying.

"There has been a lot of interest but we cannot disclose the names of any potential purchaser," he added.
