Earlier this week, British tabloid 'The Sun' had given Roger Federer’s fans a sneak peek into his luxurious holiday apartment in Dubai. Now, they have also released images of the Swiss legend’s beautiful residence in Switzerland.
Roger Federer's home is located in the Swiss municipality of Wollerau, overlooking Lake Zurich. The 39-year-old moved there in 2014, and shares it with his wife, parents and four kids.
The residence was built from scratch over a 1.5-acre plot of land. Some might even call it a 'glass house', as it has several floor-to-ceiling glass windows.
Roger Federer commissioned this architectural marvel almost a decade ago, spending £6.5 million in the process.

The Federer family home is built over three floors. It is divided into two separate apartments - one for Federer, his wife and kids, and another for Federer's parents - Robert and Lynette.

Roger Federer's three-storey residence boasts several lavish amenities that a person of his stature would be expected to have.
Those include multiple swimming pools, a state-of-the-art gym, a spa and an underground car-park.
From the pictures below, you can get a glimpse of the interiors of Roger Federer's home.
The municipality of Wollerau is very attractive as a home-location for wealthy individuals, given its low income-tax rates. Some of Federer's neighbors include Formula 1 stars Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen.
The residents of the region - including Roger Federer - pay around 10-12% of their income in taxes, which is less than half the rate in cities like Zurich, Basel and Geneva. .. Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal couldn't hold back their tears in emotional scenes after the Swiss legend's final match of his illustrious career.
The duo teamed up for Team Europe against Team World's Jack Sock and Frances Tiafoe in what was the last-ever competitive game for Federer.
