Inside Uri Geller's mind-bending mansion: A throne built from bent spoons, a horse sculpted out of twigs and a 'talking' toilet in the pad which is still on the market for £15m five months after being put up for sale
- Uri Geller's White House-inspired mansion is still on the market for £15million five months after being put up for sale
- Filled with talking loos, throne built from bent spoons, sofa slept on by Michael Jackson and has a giant crystal ball
- Nine-bedroom Palladian-style property located in Sonning, Berkshire, and close to George Clooney's new mansion
- Geller has said of his home, which also contains 40-million-year-old crystals, that 'Magic emanates from the house'
Uri Geller's White House-inspired mansion may have talking loos, a throne built from bent spoons and a sofa slept on by Michael Jackson, but it appears the quirkily decorated nine-bedroom home is not to everyone's taste.
It was put on the market for £15million last October but the psychic is still yet to find a buyer for the property he has lived in for 35 years.
Filled with unique sculptures and furniture, the 12,000ft property also comes complete with toilets that ask how warm you want the seat, a giant crystal ball and a leather chair that once belonged to Yves Saint Laurent.

Geller's water feature: The generous grounds also include a stretch of The Thames belonging to Sonning Court, plus a crystal ball
Speaking to MailOnline last year, Geller told how 'magic emanates from the house' - which also features two huge crystals over 40 million years old outside and a horse sculpted from twigs (pictured)

According to The Sun, the 69-year-old has so far been unable to sell the Berkshire mansion he lives in with wife Hanna.
Speaking to MailOnline last year, Geller told how 'magic emanates from the house' - which also features two huge crystals over 40 million years old outside and a horse sculpted from twigs.
‘Everything is in accordance with Feng Shui principals,' the Israeli 'spoon bending' illusionist said.
The spectacular property is located in Sonning, close to the island hamlet of Sonning Eye where George and Amal Clooney bought a mansion in 2014.
Describing the Sonning Court's unique location Geller said: 'It is in a very rare location being on the bend of the river and there are incredible, positive forces emanating from the water.
'Everything about the house is somewhat spiritual and empowering - the rooms, the views and the landscape gardens.'
Geller himself has handpicked the plants for his gardens.
He said: 'I have collected plants and shrubs from all over the world: Brazil, Japan, Venezuela , Chile, France, the USA. It is very elegant, peaceful and beautiful. With the three ponds, the gardens create a magical atmosphere.'
Inside, there are endless objects d'art collected by the illusionist throughout his career and given to him by the famous people whose paths he's crossed.
Geller has decided to leave the Berkshire countryside to return to Israel, where he left in 1972. The multimillionaire has bought a modest flat in Tel Aviv, overlooking the Mediterranean, and furnished it with cheap items from Ikea.
History: One of Geller's most prized possessions is a brown velvet sofa (pictured), which was a favourite of his friend Michael Jackson

One of the unique pieces in Geller's home is a brown velvet sofa, which was a favourite of Geller's friend Michael Jackson. The psychic (pictured at the stairs) also renewed his wedding vows to Hanna on the sofa in 2001, when Jackson was his best man
Asked last year whether he would part with his much-loved treasures when he sells, he replied: 'For the right person, I would leave everything.
'I am not in any way materialistic and do not hang on to things. I am not the sort of person who rips the light fittings out!'
One of the unique pieces is a brown velvet sofa, which was a favourite of Geller's friend Michael Jackson. Geller also renewed his wedding vows to Hanna on the sofa in 2001, when Jackson was his best man.
'It was custom made and is the largest in the UK. Michael loved this sofa - he slept on it and he meditated on it,' Geller said.
Other pieces that Geller counts as favourites include a black leather chair once owned by Yves Saint Laurent, the 40 million year-old crystals that flank his front door and a kinetic art sculpture that sits in his grounds.
He added: 'My two rock crystals sit to the left and right of the entrance and govern the house. These beautiful objects are over 40 million years old - they’re beautiful and enormous.'

He said: 'There are spoons on it which were given to me by Elvis, John Lennon, and I even have one from the Pope.'
One thing Geller will definitely be leaving behind for Sonning Court's new owners are the loos, which in true Geller style are not run of the mill and talk to you whilst you go about your business.
The toilet asks your preferences when it comes to position and pressure. It also washes you, dries you and lets out a scent afterwards.
There's also a life size cardboard cut out of George Clooney sent by a friend on the news that Clooney had been bought nearby.
The mansions was built around 50 years ago and was based on the design of US presidential address, The White House.
Since the Gellers first made it their home, it has tripled in size and now has parking for up to 30 cars.
