Sir Alex Ferguson has finally sold his luxury home - five months after putting it on the market.
The former Manchester United manager slashed a quarter of a million pounds off the price of the Cheshire mansion in February when he had struggled to shift the property.
The 82-year-old had put the property up for sale for £3.5m following the passing of his wife, Lady Cathy, who died aged 84 following 57 years of marriage to the former manager, in October.
He had described Lady Cathy as 'his bedrock', the pair having met back in 1964, and her funeral was attended by numerous famous faces from the football world and further afield.
Ferguson had struggled to sell the five-bed house, putting it up for sale six weeks after his wife's death, but it has now been sold to an unknown buyer for the second asking price of £3.25million.
Estate agents had described the mansion, located in Wilmslow, as 'deceptively spacious' and 'impressive' on one of Cheshire's most 'desirable' roads.
They added: 'Positioned within in a very private, gated and secure plot. Walking distance of Wilmslow town centre and the train station. This distinctive family home boasts approximately 7000 sq ft.'
It boasts a stunning reception area that is outfitted with a wrap-around staircase and grand chandelier, as well as a games room complete with a snooker table, and carpets in the Ferguson clan tartan.
The five-bedroom home, complete with en suite bathrooms is pictured with an open-plan kitchen and perfectly manicured lawns.
The kitchen offers a stunning granite work surface, a walk in pantry and cupboard, breakfast bar-style seating and double glazed patio doors leading out to the garden, according to the listing.
The living room has double glazed patio doors and a large speaker system, as well as a 'flame coal effect gas fire' to bring a homely warmth and comfort to the area.
The garden is impressively well kept and boasts a stunning stone flagged patio.
According to the listing, the flower beds are 'well stocked with a variety of trees, plants and hedgerows to provide a protective privacy screen'.
The home's interior is immaculate, infused with character, modern fittings, soft lighting and large windows.
Photos of the mansion gave an insight into the couple's life, with photos and mementoes of the football great's experiences visible around the home.
Additionally, the home boasts its very own gym, as well as a dressing-room, double garage and bar area.
The Fergusons are said to have moved into the property in 2010 to make Ferguson's commute to United's Carrington training ground easier.
Ferguson was no longer living at the property, having moved into a £1.2million house in Goostrey to be closer to son Darren, who is in his fourth stint as manager of Peterborough United, and his grandchildren.
Sir Alex, who still works as a director at Man United, took time out of his schedule to watch Peterborough in action in November, donning a large coat and traditional flat cap as he sat in the stands to watch them take on Stevenage in League One.
The game ended 2-2, with Peterborough coming back from two goals down to ensure the points were shared.
He now lived in the village next to Darren, with the Scot also having two other sons and 12 grandchildren in total.
Goostrey, his new home, first appeared in the Domesday Book of 1086 and has become a base for footballers including Raheem Sterling - who lived there when he was at Manchester City.
