Now we all love having a nosey around houses for sale in Leeds- but this one could have us scrolling for hours.
Located in Scarcroft on Thorner Lane, this eight bedroom, six bathroom freehold mansion is officially the most expensive properties on the market right now, according to Rightmove.
A fine Georgian manor house with gorgeous rural views, this is as good as it gets when it comes to country homes- and with 60 acres attached to the property, it’s the ideal investment for a long-term buyer.
The home itself is set across 15,000 square feet with a host of formal and informal reception rooms, two wine cellars, a basement entertainment space with modern bar, cinema, music room and billiards room, six sizeable bedrooms and a further two located in the guest wing. There’s also a stunning leisure wing with jacuzzi, gym and indoor swimming pool, as well as an outdoor tennis court.
But don't just take our word for it, here's an idea of what you'd be getting for six and a half million quid.
The exterior of the property is true to the Georgian style, and spanning across 15,000 square feet.
The indoor swimming pool has a glass ceiling view that floods the space with natural light.
The wine cellars are particularly impressive, with the estate agents pointing out that this has been undoubtably commissioned by the original owner, who is a 'renowned Wine and Spirits Merchant'.

Get Baked’s viral ‘Bertha’ cake has a sister on the way – and she sounds just as cheeky
She's big, she's green and she's ready to ruin your figure.
A lot of you will have seen the viral ‘Bertha’ cake by Leeds born beloved sweet treat specialists Get Baked.
They recently opened another site in Manchester's Northern Quarter, where queues literally formed round the block of hungry punters wanting to get their hands on the infamous sugary treats.
And now it's going to happen all over again, as they've recently unveiled their newest flavour which is sure to go down a storm.
We’ll give you a hint: it’s a current food and drink trend that’s about as big as Bertha herself – it’s not matcha, it’s not hot honey (duh), and it’s not Guinness…

Yes—scratch that; HELL YES!Get Baked is set to welcome Bertha’s equally beautiful twin sister, and she’s officially a pistachio girlie.
Having started out life simply as ‘Bruce’, after taking inspiration from the iconic scene from Matilda, this thing has become a phenomenon in its own right, and who doesn’t like more flavours of a good thing?
Probably one of the biggest foodie crazes going at the minute, thanks to the popularity of pistachio cream, cookies, lattes and the similar social media sensation that is the ‘Dubai Pistachio Bar' people are rather fittingly going nuts for this particular flavour of almost absolutely anything.
With that in mind, the Leeds-born bakery and dessert shop – founded by Rich Myers over in Headingley back in 2011 – have shown no hesitation in hopping on the bandwagon and creating a new twist on their own viral menu item.
Teasing the full details in a post on their Instagram this week, they wrote: “What’s big, green, and is going to destroy your life in a couple of weeks’ time? Pistachio Bertha. Strictly limited to 5,000 slices. Coming oh so soon. GB.”
In case you were wondering just how mad those with a sweet tooth could possibly go for a slice of cake, just look at the recent queues when they finally launched in Manchester city centre:
Speaking on the grand opening here on our turf and his partner Amy’s hometown, Myers said simply: “Manchester, what a launch. Thanks for much for the warm welcome. Stay baked.”
