Teenage darts sensation Luke Littler has hit a bullseye on his first foray into the property market – by snapping up a five-bed mansion with an indoor swimming pool.
The 17-year-old star has moved with his parents into the five-bedroom house which he is renting for £6,000-a-month in a leafy village suburb of his hometown of Warrington, Cheshire.
Estate agents boast that the three-storey property is ‘a wonderful family home’ on a street which is known locally as Millionaire’s Road.
Littler, who is rumoured to have a new girlfriend, is said to have already netted nearly £700,000 from his soaraway career, despite still being too young to legally buy a pint.
It was revealed last week that the current World Series of Darts champion and his family had swapped their old £180,000 two-bedroom semi in Warrington for the spectacular new property.
Luke Littler took home £200,000 for making the World Championship final at the start of 2024, which should help to cover the £6,000-a-month rent on his new home
The five-bedroom house is situated in a leafy village suburb of Littler’s hometown of Warrington, Cheshire, and comes complete with electric gates
The property, which the teenage darts prodigy will share with his parents, also features an indoor swimming pool measuring 36ft by 33ft
The rent could prove to be small change for Littler, nicknamed Luke ‘The Nuke’, with experts predicting he could eventually earn £40 million from brand and sponsorship deals
Estate agents marketed the property with a gushing description which tempted the teenager to sign up for a long-term lease
The property contains a four piece en-suite bathroom that is ‘complemented by floor to ceiling windows’, according to the particulars
The house with electronic gates and bristling with CCTV security cameras has an open plan kitchen and dining area with bifold doors leading to an indoor swimming pool, measuring 36ft by 33ft.
The pool room includes a relaxation area with plenty of space for recliner chairs and gym equipment, a cinema projector and more bifold doors opening out to a spacious patio.

Estate agents marketed the property with a gushing description which tempted the teenager to sign up for a long-term lease.
The particulars say it is ‘finished to an uncompromising standard, with intelligent design, impressive technology, top of the range fixtures and fittings and superb leisure facilities.’
The description adds: ‘This is a wonderful family home on one of the most sought-after roads in the region.
‘Fully renovated in recent years, the property has been carefully and cleverly redesigned to optimise and enhance space, creating a perfect balance of luxury finish and ease of living.’
The house is said to have parquet flooring throughout the ground floor with ‘a spacious entrance hallway’, leading to a cloakroom, and a ‘well-equipped study’ complete with fitted units.

No detail has been overlooked in the house, which is immaculately presented throughout
The particulars describe the ‘heart of the house’ as being its ‘open plan living/dining/kitchen with adjacent swimming pool. It includes a breakfast bar
There is also an ‘exquisite formal living room’, described as ‘an excellent relaxing or entertaining space’ with two sets of bifold doors opening on to the garden
With five sumptuous bedrooms, there should be no shortage of accommodation for Littler, his family and their guests
For all its spaciousness, the house does not want for cosy smaller areas, such as this room with a built-in television and comfortable seating
There is also an ‘exquisite formal living room’, described as ‘an excellent relaxing or entertaining space’ with two sets of bifold doors opening on to the garden, and a glass fronted cabinet which Littler could use to display his trophies.
The particulars describe the ‘heart of the house’ as being its ‘open plan living/dining/kitchen with adjacent swimming pool, to the rear of the property’.
They state: ‘A stylish dining area leads to the sleek kitchen with top of the range appliances and breakfast bar.
‘There is a generous snug, with side access, to the left of the kitchen, while to the right sliding doors open to the large indoor swimming pool with lounge/gym space and cinema projector.
‘A wall of bifold doors, opening onto the garden, creates an incredible indoor/outdoor entertaining space, while the multi-purpose utility/bar/changing room is the place for a post-swim shower.’
The first floor is said to have been ‘re-configured to intelligently balance the available space’, creating four ‘superb sized’ bedrooms, all with new en-suite bath/shower rooms.
The two bedrooms to the rear are said to be ‘particularly impressive, with additional dressing rooms and Juliet balconies offering views over the garden’.
The principal bedroom suite spanning the entire second floor of the house is described as ‘something very special’.
Luke Littler will share the house with his mother, Lisa Littler, and his father, Anthony Buckley – who also double as his biggest fans
With three kebab shops less than a mile from his new home, Littler can continue to satisfy his famous craving for doners
The suite includes a spacious bedroom, lounge and study areas, a custom-built dressing room and a four piece en-suite bathroom, ‘all complemented by floor to ceiling windows’.
The particulars add that there is an ‘attractive enclosed garden’ with a lawn and patio areas, a large double garage and ‘ample driveway’ with ‘parking for numerous vehicles’.
Littler sparked speculation last week that there is a new woman in his life months after splitting from his girlfriend Eloise Milburn.
The darts ace was live streaming himself playing a video game when a woman’s voice came on the microphone saying that she was tired and going to bed.
The exchange led fans to suggest he may have a new girlfriend.
Manchester United fan Luke recently posted Instagram pictures from the poolside of his new home, dubbing it a ‘Super Sunday’ as he watched the football on a huge screen above.
His taxi driver father Anthony Buckley, 43, and mother Lisa Littler, 40, who works in a shop selling scented candles also shared loved-up snaps of themselves having a swim while their French bulldog Nala watched on from a blanket.
Luke, who became a sensation in the darts world at the age of 16, has three kebab shops less than a mile from his new home, so he can continue to satisfy his famous craving for doners.
