Tyson Fury’s plans to build dream £4million mansion knocked out by two species of bats

GYPSY King Tyson Fury’s plans to demolish a house and build a dream £4million mansion have been knocked out — by bats.

The heavyweight world champion, 34, has given up on a six-bedroom home with swimming pool after two protected species were found roosting in a loft.

He would have needed a special licence from Natural England before the work could be done because it is an offence to intentionally or recklessly disturb them.

Fury would also have had to put bat boxes in nearby trees for the common and soprano pipistrelles.

Instead, he and wife Paris, 33, have applied for planning permission to extend the eight-bed pad they aimed to pull down with a basement music room and games room.

They also want to add a breakfast room, garden room and cinema to the home in the Cheshire village.

A garage and leisure suite, with a hot tub and plunge pool are also proposed.

In a design statement, Fury’s planning agent said the leisure facilities were “incidental to the enjoyment of the dwelling house”.

Fury and Paris currently live with their six children in a £1.7million home in ­Morecambe, Lancs.

His move will take him closer to boxer brother Tommy and Love Island girlfriend Molly-Mae Hague, both 23, who have a £3.5million mansion nearby.

Planners at Cheshire East council are set to decide on the application in April. So far, no-one has objected.

Fury’s agent said there was “no reasonable basis” to refuse as the proposals were too far from local homes to “impact on their amenities”.
