Inside Bake Off 2020 finalist Laura Adlington’s home with all white kitchen, huge garden and outside pizza oven
WHEN Laura Adlington isn't busy baking tasty treats in the Great British Bake Off tent, she can sit back and relax in her picture perfect home.
The popular Channel 4 show came to a close last night and the 31-year-old from Gravesend impressed the judges with her final showstopper after a disastrous signature and technical.

But it's not just her baked goods that look amazing as Laura also has a very lovely home too.
The baker has given a sneak peek into her beautiful home that she shares with her husband and police community support officer Matt.
Her kitchen boasts pristine white cupboards, matching utensils and wooden work tops.
The cooking space is decorated with fresh flowers and hand written cards that fit in perfectly with the simple yet stylish interior.

But arguably her garden is the most impressive part of their humble abode.
It features a gorgeous koi pond, lavish outdoor seating and their very own outdoor pizza oven.
Matt took to Instagram last year to share some before and after pictures of the space and captioned the post: "I started planning the garden just over a year ago and can now finally say that it's finished!
"It's been a lot of hard work but so worth it and Laura and I can spend the summer enjoying it.

"The koi pond is 6ft deep and all the pipework and filters are hidden away."
Laura's passion for baking started when she was just eight-years-old, but admitted that it was only recently that she realised how good she actually is at it.
She loves creating things that show off her decorating skills and believes that she works very well under pressure.
Speaking about her time on the show, Laura said: "It was so surreal walking into the tent for the first time. My stomach was in knots and I was so nervous but excited at the same time.

"It was a dream come true to finally be in 'the' tent. I kept pinching myself."
Last night, fans watched as a tearful Laura stick her head in the freezer after the first challenge in the final didn't go to plan.
The bakers were asked to make custard slices but was left mortified when her custard failed to set after she added too much gelatin to the mix.
She couldn't stand the thought of serving them to judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith and broke down in tears as her fellow baker Dave comforted her.

She apologised to Prue and Paul for delivering the sloppy custard, and Paul admitted: "The puff pastry is also not good, it's more like crackers."

Although her signature and technical failed to rise to the occasion, she made sure to go out with a bang with her 'Rainbow Dessert Tower' showstopper.
And while her flavours wowed the judges, sadly it wasn't enough for Laura and Peter Sawkins was crowned the Bake Off's youngest ever winner - and first from Scotland.
