Homebuyers will need to be Rolling In The Deep pockets to buy this stunning country manor that pop star Adele once lived in.
The award-winning singer rented Lock House in Partridge Green, West Sussex, which is now on the market with estate agents Strutt & Parker for £7.25million, in 2011 and 2012.
The glamorous 13-bedroom property is very much as it would have been when Adele lived there and would appeal to celebrities as it comes with a helicopter hangar and almost 85 acres of land, making it very private.
Adele rented the grand home for about £15,000 a month and famously gave US TV host Anderson Cooper, presenter of 60 Minutes, a guided tour of the mansion in 2012.
