LOVE Island stars Tom Clare and Molly Smith have put their \u201cdream home\u201d up for sale less than a year after buying it.<\/p>\n
The couple, who got together on All Stars series one back in January 2024, bought a house just six months after they started dating.<\/p>\n
The couple shared their excitement at buying their dream home in August last year<\/p>\n
Molly and Tom put their Love Island winnings into the property renovations to make it perfect<\/p>\n
The pair\u2019s first home together included a huge garden with fountain<\/p>\n
After purchasing the home, the pair decked out the property with modern fixtures and fittings<\/p>\n
The stunning old-fashioned property, based in Barnsley, boasts a huge garden, three bedrooms, three bathrooms, giant open-plan kitchen and a games room.<\/p>\n
Molly and Tom then renovated the inside of the property to give it a new modern look,\u00a0including a massive gym\u00a0for the fitness loving pair.<\/p>\n
But despite pouring money into the house to make it perfect, they\u2019ve decided that their future lies somewhere closer to the city.<\/p>\n
A source told The Sun: \u201cThey loved the home but Molly feels it\u2019s too far out and she would rather be back in Manchester.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo instead they\u2019ve flipped the property and will hopefully make a profit.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sharing pictures of their house, Tom and Mollywrote upon buying it in August 2024: \u201c\u2018Home is where the heart is\u2019 \u2013 We\u2019ve officially bought our first home\u2026 we couldn\u2019t be happier.\u201d<\/p>\n
The property is now up for sale at a value of \u00a3550,000.<\/p>\n
Speaking about the house renovations in February, Molly said that they had invested their \u00a350,000 winnings from Love Island All Stars into the property they called home.<\/p>\n
She said: \u201cWe\u2019ve spent the\u00a0money\u00a0and it all went to the house.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe did wait and we saved it, but then obviously we found the house and wanted it.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd you don\u2019t realise until you come to do it just how expensive renovation is, and it all adds up.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tom and Molly got engaged in September\u00a0this year, 19 months from the start of their relationship.<\/p>\n
Macclesfield Town footballer Tom popped the question while the pair were on a romantic getaway in\u00a0Dubai.<\/p>\n
He had called Molly \u2018The One\u2019 in an interview with The Sun just months after getting back from the Love Island villa, and had started referring to her as \u201cwifey\u201d before they were even engaged.<\/p>\n

Molly and Tom are now looking for a home closer to Manchester<\/p>\n
The property, pictured at time of Tom and Molly\u2019s purchase, has since been completely renovated<\/p>\n
The\u00a0RHONJ<\/em>\u00a0star and reigning\u00a0Traitors<\/em>\u00a0champ announced her engagement to longtime boyfriend Paulie Connell after nearly five years of dating. The couple shared the exciting news with\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cI could have proposed on a yacht in Greece. I could have rented a grand hall, invited 400 people and asked her to marry me with fireworks in the background. But that\u2019s not who we are,\u201d Connell told\u00a0<\/p>\n While his comments sound heartfelt and romantic, Bravo fans were quick to notice that the Dublin native\u2019s \u201cnot in Greece, no fireworks\u201d line sure sounds like a subtle dig at Louie Ruelas \u2014 who famously proposed to Teresa Giudice with a grand fireworks display during their luxe trip to Greece back in 2021.<\/p>\n Connell\u2019s emphasis on humility and simplicity contrasts sharply with Louie\u2019s headline-making extravagance \u2014 and fans didn\u2019t miss the irony. After all, both couples hail from the\u00a0Real Housewives of New Jersey<\/p>\n\n
