Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver is set to make a bit more dough after putting his north London townhouse on the market for £12million.
Oliver, 40, forked out around £7.5million for the property in desirable Primrose Hill, knocking through two adjoining houses to create a 10 bedroom family home.
But now the chef, who is thought to be worth £180million, could potentially net a sizeable profit with the house on sale for £11,950,000 as his family move to nearby Hampstead.



Oliver and wife Jools, 41, spent hundreds of thousands doing up the Primrose Hill double-fronted terraced property, which they bought in the 2000s, transforming it into the perfect family home for their four children, Poppy, 13, Daisy, 12, Petal, six, and Buddy, five.


As well as the 10 bedrooms, the house boasts six bathrooms and it comes as no surprise that there are three kitchens.
The first floor of the mansion boasts a 'wonderful' master suite which is made up of a large double bedroom, bathroom, two dressing rooms and a study.



Neighbours include A-listers such as Chris Evans, David Walliams and Sam Taylor-Wood.
Oliver, his wife and children were already planning to move out of the property when it was struck by burglars in October last year.
Thieves broke in and stole electrical goods while the family was away, with a neighbour calling 999 after spotting an open door. It is thought the thieves were able to get into the house via a garage.
The family was believed to have been staying at their country manor house in Oliver's home county of Essex at the time of the burglary.
The asking price for the property is £3 million more than Oliver's new home, a seven-bedroom property near Hampstead.
Oliver bought the historic home last year for £8.95 million and is in the process of being revamped to overhaul its 1970s-style interior.
The Grade II-listed house, which dates back to the 17th century, was marketed as having a beautiful interior, including 'wonderful' panelled rooms and a 'particularly fine' staircase, as well as period features, beautiful gardens and stunning views.
However, planning applications lodged with Camden Council revealed that the Olivers plan on re-fitting a guest ensuite bathroom and want to turn one of their seven bedrooms into a family bathroom.
The plans reveal the Olivers also want to take out arched openings to the kitchen and demolish partition walls which were installed by previous owners to create an existing bathroom and kitchenette.
The updated home will also include a play room, family room, wine cellar, and boudoir as well as storage areas.



His new neighbours are just as famous as those in Primrose Hill - with Kate Moss and George Michael living nearby.
The TV personality rose to fame as the 'naked chef' in the late 1990s with a cheeky-chappy persona and catchphrases such as 'pukka' before becoming one of the most high-powered restaurant bosses in the country.
He presides over a network of dozens of Jamie's Italian branches as well as a number of other restaurant formats and his cookbooks routinely top the best-seller lists.
Oliver also fronts Jamie and Jimmy's Friday Night Feast on Channel 4 with his friend, farmer Jimmy Doherty, and campaigns on a range of healthy eating issues, including childhood obesity and a potential sugar tax.
