Katie Price’s Mucky Mansion looks completely transformed after her eviction.
The notorious Sussex property has been restored to its former glory after falling into disrepair under the care of the mother of five.
The former glamour model was evicted from her family home after being declared bankrupt in March, owing a staggering £760,000 in taxes. Katie, 46, was asked to leave her opulent residence following her second bankruptcy, moving into a much smaller house near Haywards Heath.
The former Mucky Mansion now appears drastically different from when Katie owned it. Over the years, the mum-of-five openly showcased the house as it deteriorated into a dumping ground for her rubbish. Just a month ago, she handed back the keys after her eviction, and the bank has since cleared over 20 tonnes of waste to make the property marketable.
For the first time in a while, the expansive gardens surrounding the home have been mowed and trimmed, creating a picture-perfect look for estate agents to showcase to potential buyers. Katie had left behind numerous unwanted items, including sofas, broken wardrobes, appliances, and a 5ft sign with the word “Princess” in bold pink lettering.
The pool at the property was covered in disturbing green algae, requiring a deep clean. Now, the stunning property is likely to attract potential buyers as they browse sites like Rightmove or Zoopla. The large driveway and surrounding gardens are now completely clear of clutter.
Katie previously denied being evicted from her home, insisting it “isn’t being repossessed.” On The Katie Price Show, she stated: “I’m not being evicted and I’m not moving into a caravan, although if I had to live in a caravan, you know what the travellers have, I would love that. I’ll also have another announcement to make on the 28th, bring it on sunshine.”
However, a letter pinned to the fence outside the property revealed that Katie had been ordered to leave. It read: “The court has issued a warrant or writ for the possession of the above property (land) at the request of the claimant. A warrant gives a county court bailiff the authority to evict you and hand over possession to the claimant.”
Despite the notice, Katie insisted it was her choice to leave her home and start anew elsewhere. In a new interview, she said: “I’ve been wanting to get out of my old house for absolute years. It’s been nothing but hell in there. I’ve not had any luck in that house, ever!” Katie told MailOnline that she “hates” the Mucky Mansion and warned potential buyers.
“It is absolutely cursed. My anxiety got worse with that house. There was a point when I couldn’t even walk up the driveway without having a panic attack,” she added. “I had therapy about the house. I should never have gone back there. Now I’m out of it, it’s the best thing I’ve ever done.”
