Former football player David and singer-turned-fashion designer Victoria Beckham are refurbishing their new 50 pounds million mansion and are making a panic room for emergency situations.

The couple has bought a seven-bedroom house near Kensington Palace here and are going to install a state-of-the-art security system including the room, which the family could hide in if intruders broke in, reports femalefirst.co.uk

"Security is a concern and the new house has a soundproof panic room. It may sound over-the-top, but they are actually the norm in Los Angeles," said a source.

The property also has underground spa, pool and restaurant-quality kitchen.
