Actress Sophie Turner has significantly lowered the price of her London residence, cutting over half a million pounds from its original listing in a short span of less than five months. This move comes as the star aims to secure a sale, despite facing a potential financial setback exceeding £1 million on the property she initially purchased in 2017.
The opulent four-bedroom townhouse, nestled within a private mews in West London, first appeared on the market in May of the current year with an asking price of £2.3 million. However, with no successful bids, the price was subsequently adjusted to just under £2 million in September. A further reduction followed weeks later, bringing the current asking price to offers above £1.75 million. These consecutive price drops mean Turner has reduced the original asking figure by a considerable £550,000 within a mere five-month period. Should the property sell at this revised price, she stands to incur a loss of £850,000. When accounting for stamp duty, estate agent fees, and legal costs incurred during the initial purchase, her total financial deficit on this property venture could surpass £1 million.
Chestertons, the real estate agency handling the sale, is actively broadening its search for potential buyers beyond the United Kingdom, specifically targeting Chinese-speaking clients through its dedicated China Desk. The property's listing highlights its 'stylish and impeccably maintained' interiors, featuring a 'contemporary design spread across four levels.' The home includes three bathrooms, a convenient guest cloakroom, and an expansive utility room. The primary bedroom suite encompasses the entire top floor and boasts its own private balcony.
Turner's return to London from the United States followed her separation from Joe Jonas, the singer from the Jonas Brothers, in 2023. She had acquired the property at the age of 21, successfully negotiating a £295,000 reduction at the time due to its initial struggle to sell. It appears a similar situation is now unfolding, with the property once again proving challenging to offload. With an estimated net worth of £7.5 million, a substantial portion of which—approximately £4.5 million—was earned from her role as Sansa Stark in 'Game of Thrones' (where she reportedly commanded £158,000 per episode), Turner's financial standing remains robust. Her career trajectory is poised for further ascension with her upcoming portrayal of Lara Croft in Amazon's high-budget 'Tomb Raider' reboot, set to debut next year.
The actress's determination to sell the London property is evident in the repeated price adjustments, reflecting a dynamic real estate market and her personal circumstances. Despite the significant price cuts, the property's prime West London location and luxurious amenities are expected to eventually attract a discerning buyer, albeit with a notable financial implication for the 'Game of Thrones' star.
