The dream home that David Beckham owns in the Cotswolds

Let’s take a deep dive into the home of David Beckham home in the Cotswolds. The former soccer legend and his wife own a gigantic estate in the Cotswolds. Their residence has a massive open-plan living room along with a dining room. The feature that stands out about the living room is that it has exposed brick walls along with an open fireplace. Their residence also has a private en-suite with luxury wooden walls, sinks, and cupboards.

The glamour does not end there. The English soccer legend recently built a 5-A-Side soccer pitch on the property. Not to forget, this soccer pitch has been made over a tennis court. The celebrity couple spent about £30,000 in 2018 to build the tennis court.

Beckham’s idea to build a haven for bats and birds

On July 2021, the Beckham family finally got the approval to build a barn for bats and birds. However, the celebrity couple was required to show proof that the new construction would definitely offer shelter to the nocturnal mammals. The celebrity couple was given a green light with a lot of conditions. Frizell-Armitage, an officer from the Council Biodiversity had initially not approved the plan for the simple reason that the couple did not hold enough technical knowledge on this subject.

Some of the main conditions included that a permanent box needs to be built for bats and birds respectively. Creating a hedgerow that was specifically built for new native species was a must. However, the couple would need to submit a five-year maintenance plan after getting permission. Installing any sort of external lighting that would endanger wildlife was prohibited.
