Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright put sprawling Essex mansion up for sale

Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright's Essex mansion is on the market.

The genetically blessed couple are currently building a new home from scratch and as they prepare to move into their dream property they have decided to put the home they moved into in 2013 - two years prior to tying the knot - up for sale.

The five bedroom and five bathroom detached abode is one swanky place and has been decorated to the highest standards.

To ensure that the house is a safe haven it is nestled behind electric gates and a large driveway makes it the perfect spot for someone with a number of cars.

There is also a separate garage that has been turned into a gym which features trendy bi-folding doors.

The welcoming property is spread over three floors and kitted out with grey carpets and the walls have been painted in soft pewter.

Crushed velvet features heavily throughout the home as well a blingy chandeliers.

There is plenty of room to entertain as the main corridor leads to a reception room that opens into a living room that boats a huge fireplace and wall mounted TV.

A plush L shaped sofa takes centre stage in the family room and there is a number of pieces of mirrored furniture.

New homeowners will not have to go far if they fancy a movie night as the house boasts its own cinema room.

The room keeps with the grey colour scheme due to it being coated in gunmetal tones and a number of comfy armchairs have been placed in the room kitted out with a projector.

The kitchen features an unusual booth as well as a breakfast bar and is fitted with all the expected mod-cons.

The cooking space opens out to an enviable outdoor area.

A perfectly manicured lawn sits out back of the property as well as a patio area and a number of lounging spots.

Making it the perfect spot to dine al-fresco, a posh BBQ stands in the corner alongside an outside dining table area that sits eight people.

The first floor has four double bedrooms, with three en-suites and a spacious family bathroom.

There is an additional sleeping space in the loft.

Mark and Michelle are in the process of having their new home built.

The couple demolished the old building on the plot and are planning to replace with a £1.3million mansion.

The pair's new build will reportedly feature a ground floor bar, gym, TV room, study, and an outdoor swimming pool.

While they are yet to have children, it looks like babies are in the not too distant future as they've also made plans for a playroom.
