Overview
- The five-bedroom property in Biddenden, Kent, was listed for £1.295 million on Saturday and is described by agents as set in about five acres with stables, a carp lake and a workshop.
- Estate agents Harpers and Hurlingham and a Rightmove listing detail the house as a detached family home with an impressive entrance hall, large kitchen/breakfast room, five stables and orchard land.
- Wallace has told reporters he put the home on the market to move closer to family and to spend more time in Yorkshire and Italy, and he has repeatedly said the sale is not due to financial hardship.
- The listing comes with the unresolved public context that Banijay ordered an independent inquiry after a BBC investigation and that 83 complaints were made against Wallace with 45 reported upheld, which led to his exit from MasterChef.
- The sale could mark a fresh start for Wallace and will likely keep public attention on his reputation as buyers view the property and media coverage tracks any further findings from the inquiry.
