Wayne Couzens’ marital home has gone on the market for £280,000 – complete with a hot tub he built in the back garden, the Daily Mail can reveal.

The disgraced Met Police officer, aged 52, who is now serving a life sentence for the kidnapping, rape, and murder of Sarah Everard in 2021, resided there with his wife Olena for five years.

The couple paid £200,000 for the three-bedroom terrace house in 2016, taking out a mortgage with Nat West Bank, records show.

Couzens was apprehended at the Deal, Kent house by authorities probing the horrific murder of Sarah, 33, a crime that horrified the nation and left his wife and two children in disbelief.

The former police officer, stripped of honor, handcuffed and ‘arrested’ Sarah under the guise of a fake Covid patrol in March 2021, while she was walking home through Clapham Common after dining with a friend.

He forced her into a vehicle, subsequently raped and killed her, later driving to secluded woods near Ashford, where he burned her body and disposed of her remains in a pond, which police discovered grimly six days later.

The house is marketed by estate agents as a ‘perfect terraced family house, spacious throughout with three double bedrooms and ample living space’.

It goes on: ‘The rear garden is a great size and overlooks fields behind. To the front there is a blocked paved driveway and garage.

‘The property has been well cared for and has a modern kitchen bathroom and log burner.’

While the listing does not reference the hot tub that Couzens constructed, photographs accompanying the listing show the wooden structure prominently visible in the backyard.

Other images show a neat and tidy interior with books on shelves and a board game under the table, as well as magnets on the fridge door and a large telescope in the kitchen.

The house was put up for sale earlier this year for £300,000 but the price was later reduced by £20,000 after failing to attract interest, despite being close to local amenities, schools and the train station.

Ukrainian born Olena was often seen by neighbours walking the family’s two pet French bulldogs Napoleon and Josephine and was described as ‘warm and friendly’ by locals, who added she ‘kept a low profile’.

Following Couzens arrest in 2021, Olena told the Daily Mail she had kept asking herself ‘Why?’ adding that it was ‘not human behaviour’.

She went on: ‘If I had any idea what was going on in Wayne’s head, then none of this would’ve happened but I didn’t know anything.

Couzens’ wife Olena (pictured) previously confessed she couldn’t understand why her husband carried out the brutal attack 

‘He didn’t appear to be acting strangely. I didn’t notice anything was wrong. I’m working full time, most of the time I’m dropping the children off at school and picking them up, I have a really busy lifestyle.

‘I can’t comprehend it because he never once previously showed any glimpse of violence, he was never that way. I’m just as puzzled as everyone else.

‘I saw nothing wrong. He had a beautiful family, a good house… what else did he need? I’m constantly asking myself “where I did miss the signs? How on earth could this have happened?’

Couzens was jailed at the Old Baily in September 2021 and trial judge Lord Justice Fulford told him: ‘Your wife and children, who on all the evidence, are entirely blameless, will have to live with the ignominy of your dreadful crimes for the rest of their lives.’

Shortly after his arrest Olena visited him in prison where he was on remand and he cried and apologised to her and it is thought to be the last time she saw him, although it is not known if they have divorced.

Couzens is serving his sentence at HMP Frankland and last month it emerged he had been taken to hospital for a back operation that cost tax payers £17,000.

Tory shadow Justice Minister Robert Jenrick questioned the operation, calling Couzens’ one of the most despicable criminals in our jails’ who ‘should not be given any special treatment.’
