Inside Arsenal legend Sol Campbell’s incredible eight-bedroom mansion as ex-England captain slashes £10MILLION off price

SOL Campbell’s has slashed £10million off the price of his incredible eight-bedroom mansion.

The ex-Arsenal and England star, 49, placed the Grade II-listed townhouse in Chelsea, West London, on the market for £25m in 2021.

He first reduced the price of the six-storey house in September 2022 after reportedly being cheated out of £1.5m in rent.

Sol was forced to go to court to obtain an eviction notice after a tenant failed to pay rent.

He is thought to have owned the property since 2004, with then interior designer wife Fiona Barrett later extensively redesigning the home.

But with the mansion still up for sale three years after it was place on the market, Sol has now reduced the asking price to £15m.

The stunning property contains six bedrooms in the main house along with a separate two-bed mews house accessed via an underground passageway.

It also boasts an incredible drawing room, cinema, library, kitchen, and lift to go along with its views across the River Thames and Albert Bridge.

On the market with Knight Frank, the property description adds: “A Grade II listed townhouse, overlooking the river, that has been extensively refurbished and excellently interior designed to create an elegant and substantial London home.

“With secure gated access from the front, a walled garden and further protection provided by the mews house at the rear, this is a private and secure house that offers discretion and a sense of tranquillity throughout.”

The townhouse is located in the exclusive street of Cheyne Walk, previously home to the likes of George Best, Keith Richard and Mick Jagger, The Mirror reports.

But the footballer, who also played for Tottenham Hotspur and captained Portsmouth to FA Cup glory in 2008, has a mixed history with his former home.

Sol was left seething following a rent dispute with a tenant two years ago.

He claimed to have received a deposit and three months’ rent from a businessman who had just sold his insurance company for £1bn, but received no further payments.

Since his retirement as a player, Sol has embarked on managerial spells at Macclesfield and Southend.

But he also boasts a stunning property empire worth a whopping £50m, and his own furniture business with wife Fiona.

Along with the Chelsea townhouse, he is said to own the nine-bedroom Grade II-listed Hallington Hall in Northumberland, as well as a luxury penthouse flat in West London.

Representatives of the ex-footballer have been approached for comment.
