George and Amal Clooney's English mansion, said to be worth around £12 million, is just as palatial as one would expect.
Consisting of nine bedrooms and seven bathrooms, as well as sprawling reception rooms, an open-plan kitchen, a conservatory, and 5.5 acres of land to themselves, the house in Sonning is more than worthy of the multi-million-pound price tag.
The Hollywood A-list couple, who wed in 2014 and welcomed twins Alexander and Ella three years later, are extremely private about their properties and never show inside their homes.

George and Amal Clooney's palace-esque dining hall at home
George and Amal moved in shortly before they wed in 2014 and no doubt put their own stamp on the home by way of interior designs and décor, but the canvas they had to work with upon moving in was spectacular.
Photos shared online when the house was on the market over a decade ago show a dining hall with sky-high ceilings and generous floor space.
The floors were laid with trendy yet traditional herringbone, while the large windows allow for plenty of daylight to flood the room in its entirety.
Two huge windows are placed immediately after one another, with cream curtains draped in front. It's not known if George and Amal kept the classic style of windows, but it's plausible they wanted to keep traditional, Georgian elements of the home.
In the listing photograph, a fireplace on one wall can also be seen, as well as a hanging chandelier, and a large dining table with eight chairs placed around it, meaning the famous couple had enough space to set up their own dining furniture when they moved it, which no doubt is perfect for when hosting family and friends for lavish dinner parties.

"The stately entry hall around us (towering ceilings, crisp Georgian molding) is trimmed with personal details. A softly faded Persian rug extends down the stone corridor.
"A side table, lit by a simple lamp, bears silver-framed black-and-white photos of her with her husband, George, and friends."
The Clooneys' Oxfordshire-Berkshire home surged in value
Over the years, George and Amal refurbished the house inside and out to make their Grade II-listed, 17th-century house a more modernized place to live.
They bought the property for around £12 million in 2024, though experts predict the home is worth much more today.

"Their home in Sonning Eye has pretty much everything going for it," says Charlotte. "It's in a secluded and private spot on a picture-postcard stretch of the Thames, yet London is within easy reach.

"There's also the X factor that an A-lister's property generates. While a home like this is unlikely to ever be sold on the open market – don't expect to see it on Rightmove any time soon - the fact that it belongs to such a famous couple could boost its mystique and appeal to the select group of buyers able to afford it."
