Superstar Adele moved into the luxurious West Sussex home in 2012 after making a fortune with her album 21, which had hits including Someone like You and Rumour Has It.

Now the property’s owners, developers Nick Sutton and wife Ayse who is a princess of the Turkish Royal Family, have slashed the asking price by £750,000 to £5.75million after failing to attract a buyer

The mansion – called Lock House – is in Partridge Green, near Horsham, West Sussex, was built in 1900 and redesigned in the 1930s in an art deco style and has views over South Downs National Park

Adele had rented the home off of millionaire property developers Ayse and Nick Sutton, according to Land Registry documents.

Ayse, whose maiden name is Osmanoglu, is a princess of the Turkish Royal Family which once ruled the vast Ottoman Empire for several centuries.

The couple first put the mansion on the market in 2018 for £7.25million, but without a successful bidder in January they cut the price to £6.5million.

And it seems even Adele’s star power being linked to the property could not secure a sale, so earlier this month the asking price was slashed again by £750,000 to £5.75million.

The mansion – called Lock House – is in Partridge Green, near Horsham, West Sussex, and was built in 1900 and redesigned in the 1930s in an art deco style and has views over South Downs National Park.

The main house boasts a huge 20,000 square feet of space made up of five reception rooms, two studies and an indoor pool on top of 10 bedrooms.

Outside there are tennis courts, as well as an outdoor pool and even a helicopter pad for travel to airports or a quick trip to the city. 

There is also a separate three-bedroom cottage, which can be used to house staff.

The property is currently being marketed by estate agents Savills and Knight Frank.

Savills’ description reads: ‘Lock House is a substantial country house built in about 1900 in the Vernacular Revival style.

‘The property was refurbished and extended in the 1930s for the Harvey family, and in more recent years has been further reconfigured to provide a home of quality and comfort, complete with a leisure complex with indoor swimming pool. Many of the Art Deco features have been retained.

‘The property is approached from the drive through a porte-cochere which leads to the fine reception hall with Jacobean style carved staircase.

‘Features of particular note include the elegant south facing drawing room with marble fireplace and the Walnut Room with its beautiful panelling.

‘The majority of the bedrooms are arranged in suites, including an extensive and luxuriously appointed principal suite.’

Adele is one of Britain’s most successful ever singers – and is currently worth around £130m.

Her album 21 has sold more than 30 million copies, and is the best selling record of the 21st century.

The superstar’s success has helped her buy a number of properties in the UK and US, including a Brighton beach house for £2.5million back in 2012 which she flogged four years later.

She owns two stunning West London homes next door to each other, worth £11 million, which she is planning to combine.

In America, Adele reportedly owns a Malibu holiday home, New York City penthouse and two Beverly Hills mansions.
