Jeremy Clarkson's childhood Yorkshire home has gone up for sale for a cool £1,475,000.
The former Top Gear presenter and star of Clarkson's Farm is known to most of us for being a bit posh, running his beautiful farm down in the Cotsworlds.
But what a lot of us forget (or never knew in the first place) is that Jeremy Clarkson is in fact a Yorkshireman - and he grew up in Doncaster.
Now, his five-bedroom, Grade II-listed childhood home has been listed for sale, in the village of Tickhill.
Although the home has a long history, it's best-known locally for its time as the family home of the Clarkson family, including Jeremy and his mother Shirley, who made a name for herself making Paddington Bear teddy bears.
She initially made them without content, but was later granted licensing rights by Paddington author Michael Bond and went on the manufacture Paddington Bears worldwide.

Her son, obviously, also got pretty famous later in life - Jeremy Clarkson is one of Britain's best-known broadcasters and presenters.
The home itself, Rowland Bridge House, is a Grade II-listed detached house, with a home office and guest accommodation over a separate garage and a beautiful setting along the water's edge.
Inside, you'll find a hall and cloakroom, dining room, sitting room, drawing room, orangery, living kitchen, utility room, master bedroom with dressing room and en suite, guest bedroom with dressing room and en suite, three further bedrooms, and a house bathroom.
One of the prettiest corners of this beautiful home is the landscaped south-facing walled gardens, which overlook the water and include an outdoor kitchen.
The house spans an impressing 5,000 sq ft and although it's got plenty of period charm, it's more recently been brought up to modern standards with media and sound systems and remote heating and security systems.
So there you have it - the walls where Jeremy Clarkson spent his early years could now be yours.
If you’ve ever fancied living in something that feels halfway between a fairytale cottage and a period drama set, this one might do it.
Tucked away in Gledhow, The Clock House isn’t your typical Leeds terrace. In fact, calling it a terrace feels a bit like calling a castle 'a nice semi'.
Built around 1657, the two-bedroom property is part of the historic Gledhow Hall Estate, a site once owned by none other than Queen Elizabeth I.
It's a beautiful home, inside and out, with Yorkshire stone walls, cobbled courtyards, and the striking clock tower that gives the home its name.
With wrought iron gates and space for up to four vehicles, it feels like you're miles away from the city, while still being firmly in LS8 (and just moments from vibrant shops, bars and restaurants).
The interiors of the clock tower home have been beautiful renovated, with plenty of character but modern comforts, like a deVOL-designed kitchen with quartz worktops, vaulted ceilings, and Crittall-style doors that open straight onto the garden
Other features include a marble fireplace, oak flooring, and calming sage tones.

Upstairs, there are two bedrooms, including a principal suite with its own spa-like ensuite, plus a second bedroom complete with dressing area.
And then there’s the garden - south-west facing, private, and complete with a sun house that could double as a home office, studio, or just somewhere to hide with a coffee.
The property is currently on the market for offers over £500,000, which, for a Grade II-listed home with this much character and history, feels like it could be a real steal.

A jaw-dropping five-bedroom converted chapel in the Yorkshire hills has been listed for sale - for a cool £895,000.
If you’ve ever fancied living somewhere that looks like it belongs in a period drama but also on the front page of an interiors magazine, then this one in Mill Bank might be worth a nosey.
Tucked away in the scenic Ryburn Valley, this five-bedroom Grade II-listed home is serving Sunday-best-meets-Grand-Designs energy.
From the outside, it’s all stone walls, arched windows, and a proper storybook belfry perched on top. But push through those grand double doors and things take a turn.
We’re talking a triple-height living space, with a bespoke helical staircase, exposed trusses overhead, and natural light pouring in.
Originally designed as an art gallery, the main space is massive and dramatic, with a sunflower-yellow kitchen.
The main bedroom upstairs stretches across the front of the building, with huge arched windows giving you uninterrupted valley views.
There’s even a mezzanine level currently doubling as a yoga and cinema space.
This amazing home actually has three staircases - the main one through the home, another hidden spiral staircase leading to a cosy, timber-lined library; and a third heading from the master bedroom to the mezzanine (which some people in the Rightmove comments have described as the 'staircase of death').

Outside, you’ve got around an acre of gardens - lawns, rose beds, apple trees, and even a rewilded section - plus space for six cars.
Location-wise, you’re deep in countryside calm but still within easy reach of Leeds.
Whether you can afford this place or not, I think we can all agree it's a scroll-stopper, and a really beautiful conversion.
