CHARLOTTE Church has banked a near-£1million profit after finally selling her stunning Welsh “party pad” – complete with an outdoor swing day bed.
The opera singer-turned pop star, 38, put the six-bedroom rural retreat on the market for £2.3million in August.

But after failing to attract a buyer Charlotte knocked £300,000 off the asking price and it has now been sold, subject to contract, according to property website Rightmove.
The Crazy Chick songstress and mum paid £1.3million for the home, near Cardiff, following her split with rugby player Gavin Henson, in 2010.
She carried out a Grand Designs-style revamp of the property including ground floor rear extensions and tied the knot there with musician husband Johnny Powell in 2017.
The spacious home boasts a grand entrance hall, a living room with a log burner, an orangery, wood-walled piano room, first floor balcony and galleried landing.
The extensive grounds also include a guest cottage and play room, garden tree swing, pink pergola and campfire.
In the sales listing, Voice of an Angel singer Charlotte penned: “It was all about the setting for us when we first saw this house just over 13 years ago.
“It is a very private property with wonderful grounds and I immediately felt safe.
“That feeling has remained with us for the entire time we have lived here and we’ve never felt isolated as we have great neighbours and a friendly community in the village.
“We’ve had some amazing Easter egg hunts in the garden as well as Halloween parties, naming ceremonies, birthday celebrations for family and friends, and we even hosted our wedding here too.
Charlotte Renovates A Commercial Kitchen For Her Wellness Retreat
“We genuinely have absolutely adored the house and its grounds, it’s looked after us and we’re so excited for a new family to move in and take over as guardians of this beautiful place.”
Charlotte is now set to move into an old mansion formerly owned by fashion icon Laura Ashley, in Wales’s Elan Valley.
It was featured on TV show Dream Build as she turned it into a wellness retreat but hit a snag three years ago when officials threw out her plans for four log cabins and a bath house.
