Katie Price's Mucky Mansion goes on sale for £1.5million as star shares warning to potential buyers

Katie Price's infamous Mucky Mansion has been listed on the market for £1.5million despite the reality TV star's warning that the property is “cursed”.

The former I'm A Celebrity alum was evicted from the property in Horsham, West Sussex in May amid escalating financial and legal issues.

The mansion, which she bought in 2014 for £2million, gained notoriety as the subject of Price's Channel 4 show, where she attempted to renovate the 19-room estate after it had been vandalised and deemed “uninhabitable”.

Currently listed by estate agents H.G. Burt, the property shows signs of wear and tear, with visible damage to walls and kitchen units.

Additionally, a wall with a flat-screen TV has been removed. Despite these cosmetic issues, the listing highlights the mansion's potential to be transformed into an "impressive family house" for prospective buyers.

The real estate agent’s description stated: “A substantial detached family home including three reception rooms, nine bedrooms and four bath/shower rooms spread over three floors plus a one-bedroom annexe.

“Offering the opportunity for refurbishment to potentially create an impressive family house with mature grounds including potential reinstatement of the tennis court and swimming pool and enhancements of the paddock and land.”

The property has faced various issues over the years, including break-ins, structural problems, and even alleged ghost sightings.

In May, Price was evicted from the property amid her financial struggles and the home was repossessed after she was declared bankrupt for the second time in March due to an unpaid tax bill.

The I’m A Celeb star has since relocated to a new Tudor-style rental property, costing £5,000 per month.

Then in July, she said that leaving the mansion was her decision and warned that the house might be cursed. She told MailOnline: “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! I hate that house. Whoever buys it, I warn them, they will get bad luck there. It is absolute cursed. My anxiety got worse with that house. There was a point when I couldn't even walk up the driveaway without having a panic attack.

“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.”

The property’s listing comes days after a warrant for Price's arrest was issued after she failed to attend court to address questions regarding her reported £3.2million debts.

The judge emphasised that the decision was not made "lightly," noting that Price had shown only "piecemeal cooperation" with the legal proceedings.

Originally scheduled for May 14, the court date was intended for the reality TV star to argue against the loss of her Mucky Mansion following her bankruptcy declaration in March.

Despite the warrant, Price is currently in Istanbul, Turkey, where she is undergoing cosmetic surgery and dental work alongside her boyfriend, JJ Slater.
