Flamboyant interior designer Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen failed to find a buyer for his £1.6million home for the 16th century . He has had to swallow his pride and redecorate the garishly-painted Cotswold farmhouse so he can sell up . The six-bedroom , grade 2 listed home used to be a riot of clashing prints and brightly-patterned wallpaper . Now a year manor has been painted a bland but inoffensive shade of what looks like magnolia .
