British star Hugh Grant has shelled out $3.2 million for a new house, located near ex-love Elizabeth Hurley's country mansion. The Two Weeks Notice actor fell for the charms of the medieval mansion named Melksham Court, in Stinchcombe, Cotswolds, England, when he took a house-hunting trip with his former lover of 13 years. It is just 20 miles away from Liz's country home in Ampney Knowle, Cirencester, Gloucestershire, and boasts picturesque views, tennis courts, a wine cellar, polo field and six outbuildings. A source tells British tabloid The Sun, "He fell in love at first sight with Melksham Court when he was looking around the place with Liz last year. He went back to visit it recently and immediately paid the asking price because he was so impressed with it. Now all they have to do is sort out the paperwork." Hugh, 42, still owns a London penthouse, which is again located a stone's throw from Liz's city home.
