Story from Jam Press (Pennant Abandoned Home) Pictured: Daniel Sims outside the abandoned mansion owned by Jermaine Pennant. Inside footballer Jermaine Pennant’s fire-damaged mansion left to rot A man claims to have explored a former Liverpool footballer player’s abandoned mansion, left to rot after a fire devastated the property. Daniel Sims, 33, known as BeardedReality on YouTube, took to his channel last month to give his followers an insight into the rundown former home that allegedly belonged to Jermaine Pennant. Pennant, who played for Liverpool from 2006-2009, is believed to have purchased the Cheshire mansion in 2006 for just over £1 million. But Daniel showed his followers that the property was nowhere near its former glory. Viewers were soon introduced to a slew of derelict rooms, fallen tiles and piles of black bin bags, filled to the brim with refuse. The property itself has been in a deserted state since 2020, with a drug warrant allegedly being served at the location in recent months after officers reportedly discovered a cannabis farm with multiple plants. “I explored this site with Mr Micky late last year just after it had two fires and a cannabis factory inside it,” the Huddersfield-based content creator told NeedToKnow.online. “We were on the site for a good hour navigating the place, filming and taking pictures. “The house itself was not all stable so it was quite dangerous and had quite a few low-flying planes so we were trying to catch this on film.” Daniel even alleges that there were some marijuana plants leftover that hadn’t been seized by the authorities. He said: “When we first got to the property, we could instantly see that the upper floors were hit quite a bit by the fire, but the building itself is still intact. “We made our way around the building to find the doors wide open and all the old furniture just tipped into the garden. “Now originally when I heard about this place being left, I knew that

A man claims to have explored a former Liverpool footballer player’s abandoned mansion, left to rot after a fire devastated the property.

Daniel Sims, 33, known as BeardedReality on YouTube, took to his channel last month to give his followers an insight into the rundown former home that allegedly belonged to Jermaine Pennant.

Pennant, who played for Liverpool from 2006-2009, is believed to have purchased the Cheshire mansion in 2006 for just over £1 million.

But Daniel showed his followers that the property was nowhere near its former glory.

Viewers were soon introduced to a slew of derelict rooms, fallen tiles and piles of black bin bags, filled to the brim with refuse.

The property itself has been in a deserted state since 2020, with a drug warrant allegedly being served at the location in recent months after officers reportedly discovered a cannabis farm with multiple plants.

“I explored this site with Mr Micky late last year just after it had two fires and a cannabis factory inside it,” the Huddersfield-based content creator told NeedToKnow.online.

“We were on the site for a good hour navigating the place, filming and taking pictures.

“The house itself was not all stable so it was quite dangerous and had quite a few low-flying planes so we were trying to catch this on film.”

Daniel even alleges that there were some marijuana plants leftover that hadn’t been seized by the authorities.

He said: “When we first got to the property, we could instantly see that the upper floors were hit quite a bit by the fire, but the building itself is still intact.

“We made our way around the building to find the doors wide open and all the old furniture just tipped into the garden.

“Now originally when I heard about this place being left, I knew that there were still cannabis plants growing inside and that everything had been left behind so it was quite shocking seeing the state of the place.

“We made our way inside to see the damage and you could see how the people that had been growing [weed] there had made their own food set up and were using portable cooking equipment.

“As we made our way round the building you can see where the cannabis plants were and how dangerous the property is in its current state.”

But despite its current ransacked condition, the YouTuber could visualise how the former homeowner and professional footballer would have originally lived.

He said: “I do think the place itself would have been at one point a lovely home and it does have some amazing features.

“I did love seeing the player’s lounge section which looked like it was a proper man cave at one point, but seems like it had been left as a dumping ground once the growers had moved in.

“I love the pool at the back where the planes fly low as really gives an amazing vibe to it, so it’s a shame to see this place now ravaged by fire and overgrown and rotting away.

“It’s surprising how it has just been left to rot and not either sold on or reused – it boggles my mind.”
