Wayne Rooney recently became manager of Birmingham City and this indicates that he would be returning to his mega mansion in England.
Rooney’s home is estimated to be worth about £20 million and it is called High Lake Manor.
The mansion has a standard-length football pitch, a massive garage, two man-made fishing lakes, a cinema, and a swimming pool.
It is understood that Wayne Rooney and his family moved into their dream home located in Cheshire in December 2021.
Rooney and his wife, Coleen Rooney, own a considerable property portfolio, including homes in Florida, the USA, the UK, and the Caribbean.
However, the monumental edifice that tops their property list is their six-bedroom £20 million apartment which sits on a 40-acre piece of land.
Was Wayne Rooney mansion bought or built from scratch?
This luxurious mansion wasn’t ready-made as it was built from scratch. The building as aforementioned is located in Cheshire.
The apartment as earlier revealed has a standard-length football pitch, and the pitch also has an area for spectators.
It is a five-a-side turf, which also has dressing rooms with showers for those who play on the pitch.
Wayne Rooney attempted to install floodlights on the full-size pitch, but he was stopped from doing so, due to the location of his mansion.
The Englishman is understood to be a massive lover of fishing, and that was his reason for including fishing lakes in the family’s mansion.
The High Lake Manor has been previously mocked for appearing like a Morrisons supermarket by neighbors as a result of its size, structure, and layout.
However, in contrast to a Morrisons, the apartment now boasts of an orangery, bar, TV room, snooker room, cinema, and wine cellar.
The large swimming pool in his mansion is surrounded by a glass pavilion, a hot tub, a plunge pool, a steam room, and a changing room for both genders.
The 20 million mansion also has an extensive patio, landscaped gardens, a guest toilet, separate lifts, a massive gym, a pool, and a jacuzzi.
Reports indicate that Rooney parted with in excess of £4 million to a property developer in Cheshire to acquire the space and the initial structure on it.
