Inside Rebekah and Jamie Vardy’s former Leicester mansion
The couple called the Leicester mansion home for two years before selling
If you've ever fancied a proper nosey around Rebekah Vardy's house with her husband, footballer Jamie Vardy we've dipped into our archives to dig up a tour of their former home.
Cloughmore House, located in Leicester was bought by Becky Vardy and the Premier League Footballer, Jamie Vardy in 2015. They bought the mansion in 2015 and completely refurbished the enormous property, before putting it up for sale after two years.
The house is located in Melton Mowbray, Leicester. The market town is promoted as the 'Rural Food Capital of England' on the back of its famous Melton pork pie, and the Red Leicester and Stilton cheeses that originate from the area.
Designed and built in 1968, the sprawling 5,900 sq ft mansion is arranged over three floors and has an impressive eight bedrooms. The open-plan kitchen is the pièce de resistance of the ground floor, with a designer suite in American walnut and striking mauve. And check out that chandelier above the dining table!
The house has been kitted out with a high-tech Smart Home system that will enable its new owners to control lighting, sound and heating from their phone.
As part of the refurbishment, Jamie and Becky Vardy turned one of the downstairs rooms into a games room, perhaps to entertain Jamie's Leicester City teammates when they popped over. The mansion has indeed been somewhat of a party house during the couples time there, hosting engagement, housewarming and birthday parties, as well as a big party to celebrate Leicester City winning their first-ever Premier League title.
A bespoke curved staircase with an elegant runner is another new addition to the home. It makes a big impact, especially against the exposed brickwork in the reception hall. Climb the stairs to the master suite, which occupies the entire second floor! The third floor houses the remaining seven bedrooms, including two with en suites.

The property sits on 0.7 acres of land, with gardens to the front and rear of the house. The lawns provide plenty of space for budding footballers to practise their skills, and when the kickabout's over, there's a sauna and hot tub to relax those aching muscles
While adults are soaking in the tub, there's a children's play area to entertain the kids.

Rebekah Vardy and Jamie Vardy currently live in a mansion with their five children near Grantham in Lincolnshire. The once eight-bedroom home was extended by four bedrooms after permission was granted for an extension in 2020.
The decor is exactly what you'd expect from a glamourous footballer's wife from the chic monochrome colour scheme to the luxurious minimalist decor.
