Avril buy a new home with hubby

Singer Avril Lavigne and her rocker husband Chad Kroeger have splashed out $ 5.4 million on new home in Sherman Oaks here. The couple, who recently celebrated their second wedding anniversary following rumours their relationship was on the rocks last year, have bought a lavish French-style property in a leafy part of Sherman Oaks, reported Variety. 

The 7,888-square-foot family-sized mansion, situated on half an acre of land, features six bedrooms, seven and a half bathrooms, a gym, basketball court, outdoor kitchen and a gourmet eat-in kitchen with three dishwashers. It also boasts vaulted ceilings, a number of hand-carved fireplaces, four Juliet balconies, a dramatic double stair case, an ivy-covered outdoor terrace and an over-sized swimming pool.

The Nickelback frontman, 40,  admitted he was relieved when she went public with the news following months of speculation their marriage was in crisis.
