THE mansion in Sonning belonging to illusionist Uri Geller has sold at auction for £4,450,000.
Sonning Court went under the hammer with Savills on Wednesday with a guide price of less than a third of its original valuation.
Geller, 77, slashed the asking price by £10.5 million since it first went on the market in 2015.
He first put the mansion on the market for £15m in 2015 when he decided to move back to his native Israel but it failed to attract any buyers.
Geller rented it out until the end of 2022 before another attempt to sell it in March 23 for £7.95 million, which then dropped to £7.5 million a year later.
