Former ex-Blue Peter presenter John Leslie has sold his Edinburgh home for more than £100,000 over the asking price.
The Edinburgh star's home, which overlooks Hermitage of Braids to the south of the city, was put up for sale in June.
He bought the house for £545,000 in 2016.
Leslie, 55, put the detached villa on the market for offers over £610,000.
Ralph Hendrie Legal’s sales brochure said the house has a garden that “overlooks The Hermitage of Braid and Blackford Hill Nature Reserve with views of Edinburgh”.
It added: “Boasting contemporary and generous interiors and impressive outdoor space, this traditional three-bedroom stone-built detached villa offers an exceptionally spacious and flexible family home over two levels.”
Leslie, who also fronted This Morning at the height of his career, once built a home in Richmond upon Thames but was forced to sell it for
£3.5million when his career hit the skids.
He went from earning about £350,000 a year to “not a penny”. Leslie moved back to Edinburgh and started investing in property to make a living.
The former star renovated several flats and a nursing home in London but was hit hard by the 2008 financial crash.
After renting out his Richmond home for a number of years, Leslie sold it in 2010.
A source said: “Making £170,000 in four years in a property is a very good return. The seller had obviously made some improvement and there was a lot of interest, which resulted in someone paying a high price.”
Leslie bought other properties after moving back to Edinburgh.
One six-bedroom house was bought for £1.25million in 2006 and put back on the market for £2.5million in 2009. It eventually sold in 2013 for £1.8million.
The former star also bought two neighbouring houses, including this house, which was his latest sale.
