A house inspired by the TV puppet show Thunderbirds and its Tracy Island was sold for £4m.
The futuristic house, in Poole, Dorset, has been built by Thunderbirds fan Eddie Mitchell to resemble the home of International Rescue. Mr Mitchell, a local developer, gained inspiration for the blue glass and blue-fronted property in Branksome Park from the recent Thunderbirds film.
Everything in the hi-tech house is operated by an electronic keypad. Mr Mitchell said: "We set about designing a property which resembled the house on Tracy Island in the film and also a bird. "I used to watch Thunderbirds as a child and it was a great programme, very advanced for its time."
The £4m house in Poole is said to be inspired by the Thunderbirds' Tracy Island base. It was built by Thunderbirds fan and local Poole developer Eddie Mitchell. The stairwell has more than 1,000 fibre-optic lights which change colour. The heating, lighting and even the curtains are operated by buttons on an electronic keypad. The blue glass and blue-fronted two-storey house boasts six bedrooms.
