We love watching George Clarke help members of the public transform their homes, on shows like Beautiful Builds, The Restoration Man and George Clarke's Amazing Spaces, but what about his own abode? It's not surprising to learn that George is no stranger to a fixer-upper, using his DIY skills inside his own residence. The star owns a stunning period property in Notting Hill, and over many years he has transformed it to suit his exact needs. He even enlisted the help of his children to build a shed in the garden. Take a look around his private home - and prepare to be amazed!

Inside George Clarke's Notting Hill property
George purchased a 1910-built Edwardian property in London's upscale Notting Hill back in 2015; one of the city's most desirable boroughs that has previously played host to Elton John, Simon Cowell and Stella McCartney.

George Clarke's family
George was married to his first wife Catriona for a number of years before they split in 2013. At the time, the presenter said in a statement: "We have been married quite a long time and decided to part. We have separate custody of the kids and are going through an amicable separation and divorce."
