The singer and his wife Luisa Lopilato hope that the space will give the three-year-old somewhere comforting and safe to make a full recovery.

The family are currently having a home built in Michael’s Canadian hometown of Burnaby just opposite where the star went to primary school.

As well as a tailored space for Noah, the purpose house is set to feature a heated swimming pool, a tennis court and an enormous garden.

Architects are even believed to be looking into the possibility of having an ice rink built so that Michael and his sons can work on their ice hockey at home.

Speaking to Kelly Ripa just before news of Noah’s diagnosis broke, Michael revealed that the family are really excited about their new home.

“I’m such a sports guy – a manly, macho man – that I’m building a house right now in Canada and my basement is an ice rink,” he said.

Meanwhile, Michael’s sister confirmed this week that three-year-old Noah will undergo chemotherapy to treat his illness.

“Cancer is a horrible illness but we have faith in Noah being able to overcome this,” she told the Argentinian Gente magazine.

“We know he will. The time to start a long and very difficult treatment has come but it’s got to be done. They say children are normally strong to put up with chemotherapy and my nephew is a warrior.”

While Michael and his wife Luisa Lopilato vowed to give up all their future work commitments to look after their ill child.

The couple have also decided to stay out of the spotlight since their son was diagnosed speaking only via a Facebook post used to break the devastating news.

“We are devastated about the recent cancer diagnosis of our oldest son Noah, who is currently undergoing treatment in the U.S.,” Bublé and wife wrote in a joint post. “We have always been very vocal about the importance of family and the love we have for our children.”
