Former Manchester United star Gary Neville’s remarkable ex-residence, where fellow football icon David Beckham also resided for a period, is now on the market.
During his illustrious career at Old Trafford, Neville inhabited the four-bedroom house, which boasts extravagant features including an infinity pool, tennis court, and even a mini five-hole golf course within its 35-acre estate.
Valued at approximately £3 million in the past, the opulent property is currently listed by estate agent PLM Sales with a price available upon application.
Neville, a key figure in Manchester United’s treble-winning season of 1999, transformed a barn into this lavish mansion. Notably, a section of the residence is dubbed the “Beckham Suite,” as David Beckham, along with his wife Victoria, temporarily called it home while Neville’s companion was away.
In a 2014 interview with the Guardian, Neville shared anecdotes of Beckham’s culinary talents, revealing that the former England captain often prepared meals for him, including stir-fries and pasta dishes.
Although Neville vacated the Bolton property in 2003, he retains ownership of adjacent land where he famously attempted to construct an eco-friendly house resembling a Teletubby habitat.
Prospective buyers will encounter reminders of the property’s famous previous resident, such as two wooden lions adorned with the crests of Manchester United and England on the staircase.
Spanning 9,900 square feet, the mansion features integrated sound and music systems, along with an intercom system allowing communication between rooms. An entertainment room equipped with a £60,000 bar, disco lighting, and a large projector screen adds to the luxurious ambiance.
The infinity pool, designed for eight occupants, is complemented by bulletproof windows and a CCTV system for security. Each bedroom boasts a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite facilities, with the master bedroom featuring its own steam room.
The expansive gardens offer recreational amenities including a golf course and tennis court, enhancing the property’s appeal.
Last year, Neville made headlines by offering his hotel penthouse for rent at an astonishing £25,000 per month, showcasing his penchant for luxury accommodations.
