José Morinho's flat for rent
The house that the former Chelsea manager José Mourinho used to rent in SW10 is now available


The contemporary London house that former Chelsea FC manager Jose Mourinho rented is back on the rental market. Mr Morinho lived in the five-bedroom house until he left the club in September 2007. It's only a few minutes from Stamford Bridge in Chelsea Harbour and has a little patio garden that his Yorkshire terrier, Gullit, would have enjoyed running around in, as long the dog kept out of the Japanese-style water feature. The 3,000 square feet home is large, with excellent entertaining space and with state-of-the-art interiors, just the thing for a get up and go professional. On the ground floor there's a kitchen and breakfast room leading out to the garden. The main reception area, with two inter-connecting rooms - ones with a large plasma TV, takes up the whole of the first floor and on the fourth floor, there's a fabulous second reception area with huge surround sound TV and music system. T he house, which is painted white throughout, has five bedrooms, three with en-suite bathrooms and a shower room. Throughout there's a Bang & Olufsen audio, visual and surround sound system, under floor heating in the bathrooms, partial air conditioning and four patios. The house has both a garage and parking space. Benham and Reeves Lettings is letting the house for £3,000 a week, www.brlets.co.uk
