Ampika Pickston Selling Her Cheshire Mansion For £2.8 Million!

Real Housewives of Cheshire star Ampika Pickston has put her £2.8 million mansion up for sale a year after she fell victim to an armed robbery in which her housekeeper was held at knifepoint. The 35-year reality star is selling up the home near Altrincham, Cheshire after her employee Lesley Khan was threatened with an axe, hammer and knife before the thieves escaped with a haul worth £70,000.

According to The Daily Mail, the robbery happened in August 2015 whilst Pickston was at a screening for the premiere episode of the second series of the ITVBe hit reality show.

She had regularly allowed the flamboyant six bedroomed property to be used for filming, but it is feared the robbers were able to establish its layout by watching episodes of the show.

Mrs. Khan was uninjured in the raid but according to Pickston was left 'emotionally broken.'

Now, it's been reported that the ITVBe reality star has put the house on the market with estate agents Hibbert Homes describing it as a 'stunning detached property with 7,750 sq ft of living space over three floors.'


The luxury house includes a 42-foot long indoor swimming pool, a gymnasium, steam room, sauna and a self contained apartment with views of an exclusive golf club.

It has marble flooring, mirrored ceilings, crystal chandeliers, a custom-built designer kitchen made by Clive Christian and a large spiral staircase rising through the floors.

Ampika's huge bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom suite with whirlpool bath featuring an integrated TV plus a 220 square foot wardrobe.

The Real Housewives of Cheshire is set to return sometime in 2017.
