Inside Sara Cox’s funky family home complete with clashing prints and bold furniture
BBC Radio 2 DJ Sarah Cox has given her social media followers a glimpse inside her gorgeous family home, packed with bright, bold furniture and funky wallpaper.
The 43 year old, who missed out on hosting Chris Evans' coveted BBC Radio 2 Breakfast show to Zoe Ball, shares plenty of snaps of her chic interiors, with beloved pooches, Beano and Dolly, often the main focus.
Showing off her brand new kitchen on the photo-sharing platform, Sara captioned the shot ";Woohoo, whole street on way round to par-tay!"
The bright and breezy kitchen is ideal for hosting events as it is open-plan with the patio doors providing plenty of natural light.
The house is decked out with laminate flooring in a pale oak colour.
In the living room, the stylish grey corner sofa is jazzed up with a pair of mismatching patterned cushions, adding a splash of colour to the otherwise neutral space.
While her living room and kitchen are decked out in neutral tones, her upper floors are brightened up with bright and daring wallpapers.
In this shot of one of her bedrooms, Sara teams a blue floral wallpaper with neutral bedding to brighten up her room.
Another room is covered in a teal paper with gold flowers.
Sara seemingly can't resist a pattern, judging by a series of jazzy blouses hanging in her wardrobe, and that mentality extends to the rest of her house - with the DJ decorating her home with a variety of modern art.
Placing her Christmas tree beside a print of rapper Notorious BIG one year, Sarah also favours the work of New York-based contemporary artist Todd James.
His vivid and complex compositions are guaranteed to brighten up any neutral wall.
The work of graffiti and street artist Charles Uzzell-Edwards, better known as Pure Evil, is also seen in prints in Sara's home.
It comes after Sara made a well-timed gag about missing out on Radio 2 breakfast spot to Strictly: It Takes Two host Zoe.
When one fan commiserated with Sara for not landing the slot, she joked on Twitter, "I did get it [the job]! Zoe is just filling in for the 42 weeks I'm on holiday! Thanks though."

The Sun had previously reported that Zoe was tipped for the top job, and had entered advanced talks last month.
Speaking at her surprise to be named as the host, the 47-year-old said, "I’m absolutely thrilled to be following in the giant footsteps of Chris Evans as the host of the Radio 2 Breakfast Show.
"To be the first woman to present this very special show is both an honour and privilege."
