Wayne Rooney and wife Coleen set for big move… to £20million Cheshire mansion with stables and fishing lakes
WAYNE Rooney is getting ready for another big move — to this new £20million mansion site in the country.
The first floor of the vast six-bedroom property on his 40-acre plot is already erected - as our exclusive pictures show.
And a family room and orangery are taking shape on the estate, which will include two man-made fishing lakes.
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.
On the lower ground floor is a TV room, snooker room, bar, wine store, cinema, gym, spa bath, swimming pool, plunge pool, and steam room.
The main entrance and reception halls, kitchen, dining room, family room, study and library are on the ground floor.
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.
Roo is set to move into a lavish home in the Cheshire countryside next year.
Plans showed the Georgian-style home will have stables for 15 horses, plus a hay store and tack room.
Questions had been asked about the size of the property on the plot of a demolished farm near Wilmslow.
Environmental surveys were carried out, including a check for protected bats and great-crested newts.
But the council gave the thumbs up after officers said the former Manchester United and England skipper’s house will be a more visually pleasing development than the ramshackle farm it is replacing.

The family decided to move after Coleen was left shaken after an attempted burglary at their current house last August.
Scandal hit Wayne, 32, and Coleen, 31, and their children Kai, eight, Klay, four, and one-year-old Kit, have lived in the plush area for the past 12 years.
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.
The family will be in the Cheshire pile next year.
