- The former Great British Bake Off host, 82, is moving to a new house in Henley
- Ms Berry has been forced to drop the price of the house from £4m to £3.85m
- It has its own conservatory, tennis court, duck pond and landscaped gardens
After her decision to downsize last year, work on Mary Berry’s new home is well under way.
As builders extend the kitchen and award-winning designer Bunny Guinness tackles the garden there’s been only one small hitch.
Her old house is still on the market – eight months after being offered for sale.
Mary Berry, 82, and her husband decided to move from their home in Buckinghamshire to greener pastures in Henley

The eighteenth-century Queen Anne-style farmhouse boasts a number of attractive features
Now the former Great British Bake Off judge has slashed £150,000 off the price of the six-bedroom mansion in Penn, Buckinghamshire, in an attempt to entice buyers. The 18th-century Queen Anne-style farmhouse – Miss Berry’s home for 29 years – was offered for £4million in October but is down to £3,850,000. The Grade II-listed house comes with four acres of landscaped gardens overlooking meadowlands and a duck pond, as well as a tennis court, a two-bedroom cottage, a former brewery house and wine cellars.
Miss Berry, 83, and her husband of 52 years, Paul Hunnings, are moving to a four-bedroom home in Henley with a separate cottage, gym, tennis court and an indoor swimming pool.
It cost £2.6million – £400,000 less than the original asking price – and is, to the TV star’s delight, an eight-minute walk from the nearest Waitrose.
The kitchen is being extended to give her space for TV shows and possibly home teaching.
Miss Berry was not available to comment yesterday.

The house has a well-appointed conservatory with a host of different plants and flowers on show

Inside there is a spacious kitchen with an enormous wine cellar in the basement of the property

Outside there are immaculate landscaped gardens and a large duck pond just across the driveway
