Nick Knowles has moved into his fiancée Katie Dadzie’s Berkshire home ahead of his Strictly Come Dancing stint and placed his own home on the market.
The DIY SOS presenter, 61, moved back into the property around 2017 after giving up 80% of his belongings for a simpler life.
Nick got engaged to Katie, 33, last year and he is now keen to take their relationship to the next level by moving in with her.
His semi detached property features an open plan kitchen/ living area complete with a log burner.
The front garden is beautifully manicured with raised sleepers filled with flowers flank the front driveway while he has his own kitchen garden in the back.
Over the years, Nick has shared insights into his Cotswolds life on Instagram. Back in 2020, he reflected on giving up his London home to move out to the countryside.
He wrote: “In the Cotswolds deep mid winter.
“I chose to leave London, my home most of my life, almost three years ago – on days like today I feel blessed to have made that choice. I’m aware I’m very lucky to live here.
“So many people say they would love to live elsewhere abroad in the winter but I love the winters, the log fires and the hot chocolate with marshmallows… and I’m still joyful as a child whenever it snows.” (sic)
Properties in Cotswolds had an overall average price of £423,059 over the last year, according to Rightmove.
Nick hasn’t shared many photos of the rest of his Cotswolds home but his previous home in London was minimalist and modern.
The London home’s kitchen included grey walls, white marble flooring and a large stainless steel range.
