Photos of the property also reveal a dazzling hallway chandelier, en-suite bathrooms and perfectly manicured lawns.
The former Manchester United gaffer likely left off steam in his charming game room – decorated with art work, oak bookcases and a snooker table.
The property also has a unique ‘Ferguson clan’ tartan carpet adorned on the staircase.
Estate agents say: “This impressive, deceptively spacious detached is…positioned within a very private, gated and secure plot.
“It boasts approximately 7,000 sq ft.”
Sir Alex decided to sell the property following the death of his wife, the Mirror reported.
Lady Cathy Ferguson passed away in October aged 84, and is survived by her husband, their three sons, two sisters, 12 grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
He was among the mourners at Sir Bobby Charlton’s funeral earlier this month. Sir Alex has said his wife, who he met in 1964, was a “bedrock” in his life.
Fergie’s time living at the luxurious gaff wasn’t without its share of controversy.
Following a significant objection to the application from the neighboring property to demolish a two-story house and construct a three-story mansion, Sir Alex lost a planning battle in 2020.
Planners received a five-page protest letter from Fergie’s attorneys.
He asserted that the removal of trees would compromise his privacy and change the area’s nature.
He said the removal of trees was “likely to have a significant impact on the character of the area and the existing privacy standards afforded”.
But planners decided to allow the scheme to ahead.
