She has called it home for the past ten years, but Russian supermodel Natalia Vodianova has now put her country pile on the market - with a suitably high price tag.

The 18th-century converted watermill, in Selham, West Sussex, is on the market for £3million.

Vodianova bought the estate with ex-husband Justin Portman in 2005, where they lived with their three children until their split in 2011.

The star attraction of Vadianova's estate is the indoor pool, which is linked via an underwater arch to an outdoor pool

Model looks: The supermodel's 18th-century converted watermill, in Selham, West Sussex, is now for sale

The Lodsbridge Mill estate consists of a grade II listed four-bedroom house, a separate three-bedroom cottage and 19 acres of countryside. and is now on sale for a suitable glitzy £3million

She may always look glitzy on the red carpet, but as these images reveal the fashionista has a far more understated style when it comes to staying in.

The property is full rustic charm with wooden beams, exposed brickwork and antique touches.

Despite it's laid-back feel, the property has plenty of creature comforts too including a spa complex, which has an indoor and outdoor pool as well as a sauna, plunge pool, steam room and treatment rooms.

The couple bought the property from financier Sir Evelyn de Rothschild and lived there with their Lucas, now 13, Neva, nine and Viktor, seven, but split in 2011 after nine years of marriage.

The principal suite has a dressing room and open-plan bathroom, but none of the glitz one might expect from a supermodel's inner sanctum

Portman, 45, is the half-brother of Viscount Portman, who is Britain’s 53rd richest man with a fortune estimated at £1.2billion.

Apart from this country home, the couple had houses all over the world, including a lavish home in London, a 3,000 acre Herefordshire estate, a home in New York and a retreat in Uruguay.

The star attraction is the indoor pool, which is linked via an underwater arch to an outdoor pool.

Full-height glass doors lead out to a terrace with a view over the grounds, and the pool room also links to a vaulted entertaining room with a canopied stone fireplace.

And with it's location on the banks of the River Rother, it also has river access and beautiful views of the water.

The sleepy village of Selham is home to church dating from Saxon times and a small pub, and is located within the South Downs National Park.

The watermill fell out of use early in the last century and was subsequently acquired from the Cowdray Estate by polo enthusiast Evelyn de Rothschild who extended and converted it into a private house in the early 1960s.
