Wayne and Coleen Rooney’s new £20m mansion poked fun at by fans who say it ‘looks like a Morrisons’
WAYNE and Coleen Rooney’s new £20million mansion has been poked fun at “looking like a Morrisons”.
Fans were less than impressed with the couple’s new six-bedroom palatial pad and even compared it to a Travelodge.
One person wrote online: “Looks like my local Morrisons supermarket. £20million for that?”
Another said: “Surely that is a new Tesco build...?' while another tweeter quipped: “More of a Morrisons I'd say”.
The Rooneys look like they could move into their new Cheshire home soon after scaffolding revealed work completed to the main building.
Tarpaulin was ripped away to reveal a freshly tiled roof and an outbuilding was also finished with smart masonry and white sash windows.
Builders are now thought to be inside the giant property finishing work on the many interior spaces.
Crews are still working on the 40-acre plot which will include a number of buildings, stables, two man-made fishing lakes and an orangery.
ROO'S PALACE
It is also believed that Wayne has requested a panic bunker be built into the home over fears of his family will be hit by another burglary.
The Rooney's left their old house in Prestbury, Cheshire, after a thief tried to break-in while Wayne played in a testimonial match in August 2016.
Ex-Man United legend Wayne has now requested an outbuilding be built near his new pad's entrance.
It will have a CCTV monitoring room, kitchen and toilet for a guard and a secure pick-up area.
Inside the mansion, the lower ground floor will be a TV room, snooker room, bar, wine store, cinema, gym, spa bath, swimming pool, plunge pool, and steam room.
While the main entrance and reception halls, kitchen, dining room, family room, study and library will be on the ground floor.
The new ‘Wayne’s World’ will even boast an underground tunnel to his enormous garage for six cars so he doesn’t have to get his hair wet.
WAYNE'S WORLD
In order to avoid the social faux pas of using the couple’s own downstairs loo, there is a ‘guest toilet’ too and even separate lifts – one for the family, the other for visitors.
Wayne, 33, Coleen, 33, and their three sons Kai, nine, Klay, six, and three-year-old Kit, are currently living in Washington DC while the ex-England legend plays for D.C United in the MLS.
But the new property is expected to be the place the family settles in once Wayne retires.
The family decided to move after Coleen was left shaken after the attempted burglary.
Coleen previously said the crime caused her “sleepless nights”, adding: “I fear for my children playing outside on their own.”
Booze-loving Roo will still have an eye for the reds when he moves in – it is yards from a posh wine merchant and close to six boozers.
