A waterfront mansion in Sandbanks, which used to be owned by Harry Redknapp, has gone on the market for a whopping £12.5million - almost double what the former Spurs manager sold it for six years ago.
Mr Redknapp and his wife Sandra bought the Solaris for an estimated £4million in 2015.
Just five years later, the Redknapps sold the property pocketing £6.8million in the process.
Since then, the average UK house price has risen in value by just over 10 per cent, the Solaris has undergone an extensive renovation and remodelling.
This saw the entire house converted into a smart home with full app-based control, and a huge aquarium wall added to the main hallway.
The property also boasts an epic wellness suite in the basement and a state-of-the-art cinema room.
Now, the luxury home is back on the market for £12.5m, making it one of the most expensive properties on the exclusive Sandbanks peninsula in Poole Harbour.
The ground floor has a huge kitchen diner and sunroom to one side of the hallway and a long lounge and dining room on the other.

The property is just a few footsteps away from Sandbanks' famous golden beach with a lift that offers direct access to the waterfront
Upstairs, the first floor has three en-suite bedrooms and a study and the top floor has the master bedroom suite with walk-in wardrobes and bathroom as well as a fifth bedroom.
The lower ground floor or basement has the 'extraordinary' private wellness suite, which includes an indoor swimming pool, hot tub, chill tub steam room, professional-grade gym and shower facilities.
There are balconies on the top floor, a large sun terrace at the back and an immaculate lawn that runs down to the sandy beach.
And outside there is a large garden and patio with ample room for sunseekers to enjoy the summer sunshine.
For those hoping to enjoy a swim, Sandbanks' golden beach is just a few yards away and a lift inside the property offers direct access to the water.
The Redknapps bought Solaris in 2015 for £4m after selling a mock-Tudor mansion next to the ferry on Sandbanks.
After selling it in 2020 they moved inland to nearby Branksome Park but they are now back on Sandbanks living on the north shore.
Solaris is on the south side of the peninsula and has stunning sea views of Poole Bay.
It is being sold by Sandbanks estate agents Tailor Made who have called it a 'landmark beachfront residence.'
Robert Dunford, of Tailor Made, said: 'This is a rare opportunity to acquire one of the south coast's most impressive luxury homes.
'Solaris is a truly exceptional home that perfectly captures the lifestyle and prestige that make Sandbanks one of the UK's most sought-after coastal locations.
