New photo Inside Michael Owen’s home: Footballer's £4m mansion boasts indoor pool, putting green and gym

He made a small fortune during his successful football career and is said to be worth $68 million. 

And it seems Michael Owen used his cash wisely as fans were given a glimpse into the 39-year-old retired sport star's lavish family home in the Welsh countryside during an episode of ITV's Through the Keyhole.

Keith Lemon took viewers on a tour of the £4 million mansion, which Michael purchased back in 2001 and lives in with wife Louise Bonsall and their children: Gemma, 15, James, 12, Emily, 11, and Jessica, eight.

The Grade II listed manor usually has plenty of privacy as it is nestled within 42 acres of countryside in the Welsh village of Northop, near Mold. 

And with plenty of greenery surrounding the home, there's room for a putting green as well as a large children's play area, which Keith couldn't resist having a go on as he showed viewers the garden. 

Inside the delights continue, with the lavish open plan kitchen and dining area boasting a luxe grey colour scheme and being kitted out with crushed velvet bar stools and a quilted breakfast bar. 

Meanwhile, the lounge are had a slightly more homely feel, with wood panelling on the walls and large brown leather sofas artfully arranged in the large living space.

A games room had enough room to host a full-size snooker table, whilst it also contained a trophy cabinet and picture frame on the wall including his England jerseys from the 89 caps the striker won. 

His 2001 Ballon d'Or also takes pride of place in a gilded trophy cabinet, whilst signed footballs from Owen's 17-year career are artfully arranged around the perimeter of the room.  

Elsewhere inside the home, Michael has a home gym and spa, complete with a tanning bed. Whilst he has a stunning Jacuzzi next to his indoor swimming pool.

Stunning: The games room is packed out with memorabilia from the footballer's heyday 

Michael was one of England's best footballers in his heyday, but retired in 2013 and has since become a racehorse breeder and owner. 

Former Liverpool and Real Madrid striker previously revealed that despite his successes, he hated playing football for seven years as his injuries had left him terrified.

The ex-England international first suffered a torn hamstring at the age of 19, forcing him to spend five months on the sidelines, and a series of similar injuries seriously affected the second half of his career.

Chilling: Keith couldn't resist settling in for a moment on the wicker chairs by the swimming pool 

He told BT Sport: 'Once I did it once I was gone really. I was quick, running in channels, beating people. That's who I was — compared to the last six or so years when I turned into the only thing I could.

'I was petrified of running into a channel. I just knew I was going to tear a muscle. The worst thing about it is your instinct is to do what you have done all your life but you start thinking: 'Oh no, don't.''

'For six or seven years I hated playing football,' he added. 'I couldn't wait to retire.

Tan-tastic: Elsewhere inside the home, Michael has a home gym and spa, complete with a tanning bed

Private: The home affords plenty of privacy owing to the masses of land and towering trees

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
