Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright's towering spiral staircase at £3.5m home defies gravity

Michelle Keegan has almost reached the nesting phase as she prepares to welcome her first child with her husband Mark Wright.

While they patiently await the arrival of their bundle of joy, the stars are rounding off what has seemed like an endless slew of renovations to their £3.5 million mansion in Essex.

The latest change to be completed ahead of their baby's birth is their beautiful spiral staircase. On Saturday, the couple shared photos on their joint home Instagram showing the before and after of the towering home feature – and it defies gravity.

The photos show the skeleton of a staircase that snakes around three storeys to the building phase until it reaches completion.

The finished product is a jaw-dropping sweeping staircase with black railings that would fit in at a luxury London hotel.

Mark and Michelle's home project

The couple has been making a house a home since October 2019 when they purchased the mansion for £1.3 million. Mark, 38, and Michelle, 37, have since added £2.2 million in value to the home through a series of upgrades that have included a gym, sauna, and football pitch.

While some celebrity couples are ultra-private about their home lives, the Fool Me Once actress and her beau have kept fans updated with every step of their property glow-up.

The dining room is light and airy with a neutral colour scheme and interesting lighting fixtures.

The same minimalist aesthetic has been carried into the living room which features an enormous cushion-covered sofa, as well as the breakfast room which overlooks the swimming pool and beautiful countryside views.
