Annie Lennox owned a £12million five-storey mansion in a 'delightful' part of the UK

She owned a five-storey home which filled more than 5,000 sq ft in Notting Hill, London.

It had five bedrooms, including a master suite that stretched an entire floor.

This was fitted with a sizeable sitting room as well as a modern bathroom.

Anne put the house on the market for a huge £12million in 2013.

Notting Hill is a pretty part of London known for colourful terrace houses, ranging from pastels to bold, bright colours.

There is a lot to do in the area, from walking the beautiful streets to visiting an independent shop or cafe.

Tripadvisor states: "As West London's friskiest corner, Notting Hill more than manages to retain plenty of the same appeal that's brought the affluent area so much worldwide attention.

"In this attractive cobblestoned neighbourhood, a delectable variety of eateries, independent shops, galleries and street vendors offer a delightful window into how to live the good life in London.

"Each presents visitors with an experience that's a little more idiosyncratic and endearing than the last.

"Travelers looking to forage for antiques should be sure to visit the Portobello Road Market on Saturdays, the largest antiques market in the United Kingdom."

While it is a pretty place to spend time, living in the region does not come cheap.
