Euro Millions winners are absorbed in a £7.25 million Cotswolds property.
Jess, 44, and Joe, 49, are animal enthusiasts who want to buy a seven-bedroom home with 6.5 acres of landscaped grounds, a tennis court, a swimming pool, and a stable block.
The pile is a few kilometres from TV presenter Clarkson’s Diddly Squat farm.
It is adjacent to the lovely market village of Stow-on-the-Wold, Gloucestershire, as well as the fashionable celebrity hangout Soho House.
The pair, who live in a leased home, went public on Thursday after winning £184 million in the Euro Millions, making them Britain’s largest Euro Millions winners.
Joe, a former engineer, spent the first 45 minutes after learning of his victory online looking at multimillion-pound properties.
The mansion near Moreton-in-Marsh, Gloucestershire, would fulfil Jess’s late father, Tony Shearing’s, desire of purchasing village properties for the family.
“It’s all still sinking in,” a source told, “but they’re already looking at other residences.” This house would be the ideal permanent retreat for them and their family.” It’s in a fantastic position and has everything you could want in a rural house. It would undoubtedly live up to Tony’s expectations.”
