His Hollyoaks character Ste hay might be a troubled soul, but actor Kieron Richardson's sprawling Cheshire mansion is an oasis of calm.
The Channel 4 star shares the luxe property with his husband Carl Hyland and their almost-two-year-old twins Chase and Phoebe Rae.
And despite having two toddlers, the boys have impressively managed to kit their home out with plush white carpets, cream sofas and an all-white nursery.
The adorable twosome have matching high chairs for meal times, while Kieron, 33, and Carl dine at a gigantic marble table equipped with eight over-sized dining chairs.
Bi-folding doors provide constant views of the landscaped gardens, which feature a raised patio with a glass partition, looking out over a seating area.
High-end wooden floors run through the front room and open-plan kitchen-diner, and the hallway is tiled with Victorian mosaics and fitted with a traditional-style radiator.
The couple welcomed their twins by a surrogate in May 2017, but at one point feared it may never happen.
"We were hoping to have a baby this year. Unfortunately, like anyone who is trying for a baby through IVF - whether they are gay couples or not - it is a lottery," he told The Mirror at the time.
"We have tried it four times, with the same surrogate mum, and we have fallen into that 30 per cent bracket of it not working.
"But we have not given up the fight and are still continuing. We are going to keep trying until it is successful."
