Ricky Hatton's former mansion in Gee Cross, Greater Manchester, has been sold for £1.5 million, which is £350,000 below its original asking price of £1.85 million. The property was initially listed before being taken off the market after Hatton's death in September 2025, and later relisted at reduced prices. Built in 2010, the six-bathroom mansion features a pool, gym, cinema room, and extensive landscaping with views of the surrounding greenbelt. The sale has raised questions about how the property was marketed following Hatton's death, as the estate agent's listing made no reference to his passing.

Story summary
Ricky Hatton's mansion, where he was found dead in 2025 at the age of 46, has been sold for £1.5m, which is £350k below its original asking price of £1.85 million. The five-bedroom detached property, located in Gee Cross, Greater Manchester, was initially listed on the market just before Hatton's death, but was taken off after his passing and later relisted at reduced prices. After being sold earlier this year, the luxury mansion, which features a private gym, cinema, indoor pool, and other lavish amenities, has changed hands for significantly less than its original price. The sale marks the end of an era for the property, which was once valued at an estimated £40 million.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.
