EVA LONGORIA PARKER BUYS SWISS HOME

Eva Longoria Parker and her husband Tony Parker have bought themselves a new holiday home in Switzerland.

The Desperate Housewives actress and her basketball player partner already own houses in Los Angeles and France, where the sportsman grew up.

And now they have added to their property empire by investing in an $8 million luxury apartment overlooking Lake Geneva. The two-bedroomed property is part of a restored hotel complex which is due for completion by 2012.

Parker says, "It has the most beautiful view that I've ever had the opportunity to see. Being very near to the international (city of) Geneva is the ideal conjunction of tranquil countryside and urban life, perfect for my holiday."
