The detached five-bedroom six-bathroom abode was built in 2010 and has been 'impeccably designed'.
Hatton has decorated the property with a mixture of muted and natural tones, wood, classic colours and pops of colour running throughout.
It has an extensive landscaped grounds with greenbelt views, plus a leisure suite with a heated indoor pool and Jacuzzi.
The private gym and cinema room complements the games room/bar with a glass wall overlooking the impressive pool.
A principal suite has its own dressing room/walk-in closet and deluxe en-suite, crushed velvet chaise longue and dark patterned wallpaper.
The decor is a mixture of dark greys and browns.
There is a crushed velvet bed with a glass-walled separation into the washroom, which includes a free-standing bath.
The property has multiple reception rooms and open-plan living spaces with a high-specification dark-panelled kitchen.
Situated in one of the areas most prestigious locations of Gee Cross, Greater Manchester, the estate has advanced security with CCTV and intercom access.
The former Dancing On Ice contestant's fans commented: "No where as bad as I though't it'd be, apart from that master bedroom."
"I don't 100% hate it. It's quite tasteful," mused a user.
A third added: "My takeaway from this is that boxers have better taste than footballers. I like it, it's modern without being stark and industrial and still looks like a home as opposed to staged for a photoshoot in Hello! magazine."

"I definitely wasn't ready for the purple cinema room, given everything else is quite muted."
"Externally it's a bit 90s Tesco, but internally, it's pretty nice. I'd definitely redecorate, but I like the exposed timber," applauded one pleasantly-surprised fan.
"That's lovely. Imagine the BBQs on a summer's eve," dreamt another.
"The mezzanine above the swimming pool reminds me of Robbie Savage's episode of MTV Cribs," recalled a fan.
The boxing promoter previously took part in a BBC Comic Relief special called 'This is MY House' which aired in March of last year.
The athlete lives a life of luxury in his stunning mansion which includes a gold dining room and diamante door handles.
The 46-year-old legend - who was in Cardiff on Friday night to see his Oasis pals Liam and Noel Gallagher reunite - had his last professional bout in 2012.
The City super-fan was walked to the ring by Noel and Liam for his 2008 win over Paulie Malignaggi.
The national treasure and advocate on men's mental health was due to fly out to Dubai this week to star in Sunday night's big-money launch press conference.
But he suffered an eye injury on his designer sunglasses at the Oasis reunion gig and was not cleared to travel until the injury heals.

Scots telly presenter turned down night out with Liam Gallagher
Motherwell-born Ross, 63, who now lives in Los Angeles was back in Glasgow for a family event at the weekend. Scots entertainment presenter Ross King has told how he once turned down a night out with Liam Gallagher who remembered him from his stints on daytime telly show Lorraine. Motherwell-born Ross, 63, who now lives in Los Angeles was back in Glasgow for a family event at the weekend. The former Radio Clyde DJ and weatherman told the Record he can't wait to see Oasis perform in California as part of their reunion tour. But he still can't believe he knocked back Oasis frontman Liam who asked him to hit the town for a night in New York. He said: 'I met Liam once in New York right outside the hotel at Central Park where I'd just interviewed Ben Affleck. 'A car that was taking me to the airport pulled up and the doormen turned round and went 'Car for Ross King, Car for Ross King'. 'Liam was there and turned round and went 'Eh, Eh, Eh, Ross… Lorraine. Ross, where's Lorraine? Alright.' According to Ross, Liam asked him for a selfie, adding: 'And then he was like 'I've just bought a place here. "Do you want to go out tonight? And I was like 'Oh that would have been some night but I have to go to the airport. "But Liam was just the nicest man. I could actually see the headline: 'Ross King snubbed a night out with Oasis man'.' Ross, who was back in Glasgow to celebrate his sister's birthday at West End hotspot Epicures, said: 'I'm going to see Oasis in the Rosebowl in Pasadena and that's going to be phenomenal.' After spending the evening at the newly refurbished Glasgow bar and restaurant with his girlfriend Brigitte, family and friends, he added: 'We've had the most fantastic night.'

CHRISTOPHER STEVENS reviews Heatwaves: The New Normal? It used to be called ‘summer', now a hot spell has the BBC in meltdown
Heatwaves: The New Normal? (BBC2) Marilyn Monroe started a heat-wave in 1954, by 'letting her seat wave', in a fiery number from the musical There's No Business Like Show Business. 'Her anatomy, made the mercury, jump to 93!' But to hear the BBC tell it, you'd think there was no such thing as a heatwave before climate change. Weather presenter Sarah Keith-Lucas was having a meltdown in Heatwaves: The New Normal? as she predicted wildfires sweeping the UK and 'extreme heat' with 'extreme consequences'. This was the language of hysteria, matched with pictures of burned-out houses and forest infernos. 'When Los Angeles burned, home after home was razed to the ground,' she warned. 'In Australia, hundreds have died and millions of hectares devastated as a result of bushfires. ' Britain, too, could be on the verge of similar heatwave hell, Sarah believes, thanks to 'human-induced climate change'. We cut to clips of anxious members of the public, voicing fears of 'climate collapse'. A buildings expert declared that old buildings with the wrong sort of windows 'will just become uninhabitable'. How this will happen, he didn't explain. Maybe he was worried about rusty hinges that won't open. But a bit of WD-40 will fix that, and it's cheaper than abandoning your home and moving into an air-conditioned refuge. Temperatures above 26°C could cause thousands of deaths, Sarah claimed, citing the Office for National Statistics. Before climate change, a week of 26°C used to be known as 'summer'. Now, it's the end of civilisation. Car valets of the night: Following a fatal stabbing, Mark and Johnny set about restoring a blood-soaked Renault to showroom condition for a rental fleet, on Crime Scene Cleaners (Ch4). Somebody could have died in your next holiday hire vehicle. There's a grim thought. Sarah did admit that a heatwave happened in 1976, though she reported it as a moment of national crisis, with police evacuating countless people from their homes, probably because they couldn't open their windows. But the problem, according to Candice Howarth — spokeswoman for the Quadrature Climate Foundation — is that 'we culturally and historically aren't used to heatwaves in the UK'. I'm sure she's right. Cinema-goers in the Fifties probably came out scratching their heads and saying, 'You know what, Doris, culturally and historically I've got no idea what Marilyn Monroe was singing about.' The reality is that anything can become an alarming new phenomenon if it's served with a spin of panic. Sarah took us into her BBC weather studio, a cubbyhole with a camera and a green screen, and showed us a map on which the jet stream locked Britain under a 'heat dome'. As the temperatures rose, the colours on the map turned a more vivid red. By the time it hit 30°C (86°F), the UK was glowing fire-alarm crimson. Then she met a farmer who was planning to cope with 'weather extremities' by planting a vineyard. Sadly, Sarah was left holding an empty bottle because the vines haven't produced grapes yet.

ITV's 'most expensive flop in years' fronted by David Tennant facing the axe after getting fewer viewers than niche nature documentary
The show described as ITV's 'most expensive flop in years' is facing the axe after drawing in fewer viewers than a BBC documentary about pangolins. Hosted by David Tennant, The Genius Game is reported to have cost £2.5 million to make, but despite the huge investment, it had average viewership numbers of 661,000 after a promising start. This matched the viewership figures of BBC2's Pangolins: The World's Most Wanted Animal, which examines the plight of the endangered animals also known as scaly anteaters. An insider told The Sun: 'Publicly ITV maintains that no firm decision has been taken, but most execs and commissioners view it as a disaster. 'Not only did it occupy a primetime 9pm slot, it had a big-name host and was seen as a potential rival for BBC 's The Traitors. 'But of the five main channels on June 11, it was beaten by two and equalled by BBC2, thanks to those pangolins.' The Genius Game is intellect-based and sees contestants put their IQ to the test in never-before-seen games and manipulate each other for a cash prize, but many found it confusing and difficult to understand. While the show had a promising 1.5 million viewers when it first aired in April, by the second episode this number had plummeted to 846,000 viewers. To put this into context compared to other primetime TV shows, BBC1's Race Across The World attracted 4.2 million viewers at the same time. ITV has said: 'No decision has yet been made.' News of the show's uncertain future comes after its broadcast schedule was changed amid plummeting viewer numbers. When it first premiered, Genius Game was set to air on Wednesday and Thursday. But now, there was a change in the schedule and it was subsequently only broadcast on Wednesday evenings. Jeremy Clarkson's Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? celebrity specials were then moved into its Thursday slot for two weeks in May. The shake-up meant the show was spread out over seven weeks instead of four. It comes after many viewers during the first episode took issue with the new program and commented on how 'complicated' it seemed, with many not understanding the premise It comes after many viewers during the first episode took issue with the program and commented on how 'complicated' it seemed, with many not understanding the premise. Some took to social media to share their concerns and posted on X: 'Just starting this. Seems very complicated. I'll watch it out but not looking good tbh #GeniusGame.' One watcher turned off the show in just ten minutes and penned: 'Bye bye.' Others said: 'Sorry #GeniusGame it's a no from me, way too complicated for that time of night, I need mindless entertainment after a busy day, ITV should've just extended #CBBUK instead.' 'I'm struggling to understand. I'm clearly no genius, the rules on rules on rules are something else #GeniusGame.' The MailOnline has reached out to ITV for comment.
