Details by estate agents make no mention of its grim past

One former neighbour said: ‘A woman died horribly inside that house and for a long time it did seem the scars of what happened would not go away. But its great to see it looking so fantastic again after all these years and everyone hopes it will be a lovely home for someone.

‘There were piles of tyres in the driveway, half the windows are smashed or boarded up and there was graffiti everywhere. Before it was renovated it had become a real eyesore.’The property was believed to have been built in the 1880s and was once the site of a Catholic boys school in the 1940s. But his wife of 24 years, a former Sotheby’s auctioneer, was having an affair with married businessman Roger Flint, 58, after they met at Bowdon tennis club and in March 2005, she told her husband and asked for a divorce.

He murdered his wife by stabbing her 30 times, inherited a million from her will, sold the house for another million...and served 2 years in prison Wow, what justice. Poor woman.

Sounds lovely, a murder wouldn't put me off though if it's all modern inside I'd have to get it restored
