Charlotte Church delighted fans by giving a very rare glimpse inside her quirky abode.
The former child star, 35, lives with her musician husband Johnny Powell and her three children in a picturesque village in the south of Wales.
House proud Charlotte took to Instagram this week to show off the unexpected features of her house - including a secret bookcase doorway.
Revealing how the trick worked, Charlotte shared a video of a panel of her well-stocked book shelves independently swinging open to reveal a huge family room on the other side.
"Who says magic isn't real!?" asked Charlotte as she shared the clip along with the Harry Potter theme music.
On the other side of the door was a very spacious and light-filled livingroom furnished with leather sofas, towering plants and a guitar - in a nod to Charlotte and Johnny's musical background.
While Charlotte's kids were nowhere to be seen, her adorable dogs looked very at home as they made themselves comfortable in their luxury surroundings.
In March this year, Charlotte announced there was a new addition to her family as she appeared on Sink the Pink's Pop Tart podcast.
Charlotte welcomed an adorable daughter after giving birth in lockdown.
"I would love to introduce you to my little baby. Covid realness honey," said the singer.
Charlotte is also mum to children Ruby, 13, ad Dexter, 12, with her former partner - Welsh rugby star Gavin Henson.
The mum married her long-term partner Jonathan in a secret ceremony in Cardiff in 2017.
Two years later Charlotte revealed that she had set up a school in the annex of her house.
"I’ve been gently researching education for six to seven years,” she told the New Statesman at the time.
"I’ve met with lots of different teachers and education professionals. I went to different schools up and down the country. I’ve never been so driven, it’s bizarre. I feel a bit like I have just done a self-directed PhD."
Charlotte said she was inspired to set up her own education practice after questioning the schooling that was available to her children.
"We went around the schools and it just felt a bit wrong. It felt like they were too young and it was all too structured. It just felt a bit like a job. Why would you want to send your four-year-old to a job?"
