Calvin Harris ‘turns quiet Cotswolds village into Calvin Country with £15m property spree where he plans to set up home with TV presenter wife Vick Hope’

Calvin Harris has reportedly transformed a sleepy Gloucestershire village into his own multi-million-pound countryside empire snapping up homes left, right and centre.

The Scottish hitmaker, 41, worth an eye-watering £250million, is set to move into a stunning new five-bed mansion with his pregnant wife, Countryfile and Radio 1 presenter Vick Hope, later this summer. 

But he hasn’t stopped there, as Calvin has also reportedly bought two neighbouring homes and is eyeing up a third, bringing his total spend in the area to an estimated £15million.

One local told The Sun: ‘Building work there finally finished, for now, last week and we’re expecting Calvin and Vick to move in at the end of the summer after his season playing at clubs in Ibiza has finished. From the road, the house looks amazing.

‘No expense seems to have been spared. I am sure they will love living here as a family.’

The move mirrors Ed Sheeran’s infamous creation of ‘Sheeranville’ in Suffolk, with Calvin now following suit by transforming the sleepy village of just 700 people.

Another resident said: ‘Just like Ed Sheeran, he seems to want to buy up the properties that surround his incredible new house.

‘We have had to put up with lots of building work going on, for what seems like years but what has annoyed locals most is that a lovely vineyard has gone.’

Alongside the main mansion, originally bought in 2019 for £3.6million, which was flattened and rebuilt from scratch, it is thought Calvin also snapped up a six-bedroom property with a three-acre vineyard for £3.6 million, although he insisted the vines be ripped out.

The plush pad, made from classic honey-coloured Cotswold stone, features five bedrooms, a swimming pool and tennis court.

Other locals joked that the local pub could be next on his list – and suggested the chart-topper might even treat residents to a DJ set.

Calvin, who once worked in a fish factory and stacked shelves at Safeway to buy his first decks, has since topped charts with 11 UK No1s and raked in millions from a Las Vegas residency. 

Ever since he sold his song catalogue in 2020 for a reported £76million and has invested heavily in property ever since.

Already the owner of a £12million mansion in LA, a £7.5million London townhouse, and a 138-acre farm in Ibiza, Calvin appears to have found his UK base in the Cotswolds (pictured with Vick in 2024)

The new mansion features a series of large ground floor rooms including kitchen, dining room and TV snug. 

Already the owner of a £12million mansion in LA, a £7.5million London townhouse, and a 138-acre farm in Ibiza, Calvin appears to have found his UK base in the Cotswolds, alongside celebrity neighbours like the Beckhams, Kate Moss, and Jeremy Clarkson.

 MailOnline have contacted Calvin’s representatives for comment. 

It comes after Vick jetted off to her Ibiza home for her maternity leave after asking the Radio One Big Weekend crowd in Liverpool for baby name ideas last week.

The star threw herself open to suggestions while taking to the stage with co-host Jamie Laing, 36.

Vick looked sensational as she showcased her blossoming bump in a vibrant figure-hugging maxi dress with a thigh-high split.

Chatting with the audience, Jamie said: ‘Vick is about to go on maternity leave, and she wants some help with some baby names, so if you can shout some names to me.’

As the huge crowd began screaming out suggestions a giggling Vick replied: ‘Ok, I got it.’

Vick appeared to be having the time of her life at the festival as she took to Instagram with snaps of herself enjoying with co-host Jamie

The pair caught some of the Liverpool festival’s biggest acts including Mel C’s surprise performance with Tom Grennan.

She even had a chance to let her hair down in the BBC presenter’s raised platform, where she danced with the crew. 

The mother-to-be also had a chance to catch up with her fellow co-presenters Arielle Free, Greg James and Lauren Layfied.

She captioned the snaps: ‘Final @bbcradio1 Going Home show with just the two of us for a little while, it’s been such an absolute blast!

‘Thank you for the love and the laughs these last few months sweet sweet @jamielaing, all the team, and of course our amazing listeners.

‘Legends, the lot of ya.’

Jamie also sent his good wishes ahead of the momentous occasion and said: ‘To the sweetest soul, who goes on maternity leave today – what a blast we’ve had.’

The couple tied the knot in September 2023 and only just announced their impending arrival, choosing to keep their relationship largely out of the spotlight.

Vick stressed on air that she didn’t want to make a big deal out of her pregnancy.

She said: ‘This is not an announcement, by the way. People keep saying are you going to announce, are you going to announce? And I’m like, I’m not the King.

‘I’ll be honest, I struggle with anything that’s personal or private. I will tell you a story about eating a kebab out of a bin, that’s one thing.

‘But there’s a line and so I’ve never been that big on sharing. Particularly because I’ve just been enjoying this privately and quietly.’
