Sarah Beeny's £3m mansion hit with demolition order
Sarah Beeny 's £3 million Somerset mansion, featured on Channel 4 's Sarah Beeny's New Life in the Country, is facing a demolition order.
An extension built without planning permission, and documented on the show, was retrospectively refused by the council.
Ms Beeny and her husband Graham Swift appealed against the decision, but that was rejected. They have been ordered to demolish the extension.
The original planning permission stipulated that existing buildings on the property be torn down, but Beeny chose to renovate and extend instead.
She has transformed the property into a stately home, complete with two libraries, a vineyard, a boathouse and a greenhouse.
