It includes a football pitch, an indoor swimming pool, two fishing lakes, a cinema, a wine cellar, a snooker room and a massive garage for Rooney’s luxury car collection, per UK media.

The home has not been without controversy, with the star reportedly not being allowed to install floodlights because of the mansion’s rural location, according to the Derby Telegraph. The manor was also jokingly compared to a Morrisons supermarket megastore for its boxy appearance when photos of it being built first appeared online, per the Manchester Evening News.

It is also reported to have two separate lifts, one for the family and another for guests, as well as a panic room.

The panic room was reportedly a special request after a 2016 break-in at the family’s previous US$7.5 million home in Prestbury, Cheshire, noted Metro UK.
