Dec Donnelly 'triples' value of luxurious seven-figure home

The luxurious home owned by Geordie favourite Dec Donnelly, which is said to have rocketed in price after being bought for just under £2m, reveals touches reflecting his passion for Newcastle United.

The TV star had long-time pal and co-presenter Ant McPartlin as a neighbour for years before Ant moved from his home in Chiswick to Wimbledon, leaving the property to his ex-wife, reports Liverpool Echo, and now it seems Dec's home has rocketed in price.

Dec, 47, has a luxury seven-bedroom home which is now priced at an estimated £5m - a huge increase from the £1.9m he paid in 2006, according to Hello! And the I'm A Celebrity presenter has revealed snapshots of its interior through occasional TikTok videos which give the impression of a home that is chic and modern.

The property includes its own gym and his support of Newcastle United is captured in its black and white-theme walls and floor and club memorabilia around the space. Hello highlights the neutral look seen in the living room with its cream walls and sofa with the addition of navy cushions and pops of colour that include plants, flowers and wall art adding more personality to the room.

The neutral theme continues throughout the home with silver furnishings to complement the design. It adds that in a picture to show off Dec's Saturday night takeaway, there are chrome accents in the kitchen alongside grey cabinets, white surfaces and tiles plus silver utensils and equipment including a matching bread bin and toaster.

And his dog Rocky has been seen in a cosy bed and with a new Barbour coat on its fourth birthday.

The outside of the home is seen to be just as beautiful with white birch trees ; pruned, shaped bushes and flowers on an elevated platform and a wooden fence surrounding the property. Pictures have been shared by Dec on occasions such as during lockdown and as he signed copies of his and Ant's new book Once Upon a Tyne.

Besides images showing his Newcastle United memorabilia, one captures an artwork which appears to show part of the High Level Bridge.
