Inside Kate Garraway's £4million family home with a redesigned ground floor as it's revealed she may be forced to sell after late husband Derek Draper's round-the-clock care 'wiped her out financially'


Potential buyers will note significant personalised changes to the property, including a lift, a wet room and a redesigned ground-floor.

Kate Garraway'spent thousands' adapting her North London home for husband Derek Draper's battle with the devastating, debilitating after-effects of COVID-19 after falling ill with the respiratory virus in March 2020, as Britain braced itself for its first national lockdown. Kate, 56, is thought to have spent thousands of pounds on professional help for her late husband - who was confined to a wheelchair and needed round-the-clock care before suffering a fatal cardiac arrest - as well as two trips to Mexico for pioneering treatment. Kate revealed the changes she made to the family home on her heartbreaking documentary Finding Derek, where she added a wheelchair lift, wet room, alarm system and a ground-floor bedroom to the house.
