A source from Smart Homes told MailOnline: “The sale has just completed in the past few weeks.

“The celebrity owner is delighted. The house was originally on for £745,000 which was over value.

“The price was dropped and it nearly sold three times but never completed because of vendors’ chains falling through.”

The source added: “It has finally completed just shy of the new asking price of £700,000 and is now off the market.”

As a result, Alison secured a £117,500 profit and is said to be happy with the final sale.

The star has already moved out of the property and into her new “dream home” near the capital.

Alison shared a glimpse of her latest pad with her Instagram followers in April.

Her new home features expansive wooded gardens and a beautiful white living room with sleek marble accents.

She posted: “Feeling very emotional knowing that without all your support and love I wouldn’t be looking at this view!

“This is my new garden I would draw as a child but never dreamed it would be a reality. Thank you. Wish Mum was here to see it.”

The daytime TV star is understood to have moved to the outskirts of London to be nearer work.

Alison is quickly becoming one of the UK’s most high-profile TV presenters.

The Sun reported that the in-demand star is raking in £19,000 per week.

She landed a small presenting role on This Morning in 2002 and has now become one of its main hosts – fronting the show every Friday with Dermot O’Leary.

The mum-of-one is also a panellist on I Can See Your Voice and is a team captain on Rob Beckett‘s Smart TV.
