STING'S jaw-dropping Wiltshire manor house is up for sale for a staggering £13m.
The 72-year-old superstar Sting has put his 16th-century estate on the market for a whopping price.
The palatial property offers seven bedrooms, six secondary dwellings, 53.8 acres of gardens and grounds, a swimming pool and tennis court.
The immense property boasts 60 acres with hills, streams and water meadows - meaning plenty of space for the musician and his wife Trudie Styler, 70, to practice their yoga.
The sale of the multi-million pound estate, called Lake House, was first reported by Popbitch newsletter.
The couple married in 1992 after a decade and purchased their Grade II listed home for £7 million in 1990.
The enviable building features everything from its own recording studio to a wine cellar and an organic farm.
In 2007, Trudie told Architectural Digest about telling her husband she had found them the dream home. She said: "I told him I loved it.
"He asked why I wanted to buy it. I gave him a lot of reasons. There was silence. Then I told him that there was a 350-year-old tree in the garden. 'Buy it' was the quick reply."
Each member of the family has their own space, she continued: "Sting took the dining hall for his studio.
"He designed the library, so that's his space; he uses the boathouse for escape. I had to have a room that was mine. It was going to be one of the rooms downstairs, but he had to have a place for the piano, so that room is now the Trudie/piano room."
The home also boasts its own lake, a large outdoor swimming pool and conservatory. The outside area has its own small white lake house with two decking areas and seating.
The actress and director, 70, revealed that the tree in the picture was her favourite and she often practices yoga outside.
