Channel 4‘s A Place In Sun has helped Britons buy hundreds of properties in its over two-decade run.
However, there have been a number of properties that were out of budget with the would-be buyers.
Long-time host Jasmine Harman recalled the most expensive property she had ever seen was an LA mansion valued almost £14 million.
Jasmine has been hosting the show since 2000, and has been all over the world trying to find couples their dream home.
Here are a few of the priciest homes that have been featured on A Place In The Sun.

Los Angeles, US – £13.5 million
When it comes to the most expensive home she has seen, Jasmine remembered a property located in Los Angeles which came with a rather unusual feature.
Speaking to The Express, the presenter said: ‘I showcased a luxury California property which was $17 million.
‘It had a complete replica of the high street of the owner’s home town in the basement.’
On the other side of the coin, Jasmine told S Magazine about her most frugal buy: ‘I think my lowest budget ever was £19,500. That was in Granada, Spain.
‘Our buyer was a lovely lady called Tina who worked as a refuse collector and never thought she’d be able to buy a property.
‘She used her life savings and I think the house she bought cost £14,500 in 2015. It’s just amazing to think about that even being possible.’

In a 2021 episode of the show, Jasmine was on the Greek island of Crete being shown around the incredible property in the mountains.
Although Jasmine was helping house hunters Catherine and Patrick find the property of their dreams with a budget of £150,000, Jasmine was able to look around the jaw-dropping mansion.
The property’s owner Mary showed her around the property in the mountains which overlooked a canopy of trees and boasted breathtaking views of the beaches and sea.
The property also came equipped with a private infinity pool, beautifully kept luxury gardens, and a covered terrace area.
The £4 million property completely won Jasmine over as she sighed once the pair walked back out to the infinity pool, saying: ‘I bet you never get tired of that view.’
Puglia, Italy – £1.3 million
In 2023, the show headed to Puglia, Italy, and Danni Menzies took a look at the more expensive homes in the area – but it had a problem
Danni, 34, took a break from finding her client Marion a potential holiday home on a budget of £120,000
She visited a ‘beautifully restored’ three-bedroom property, made up of two villas, which was priced at over a million pounds

Danni, 34, took a break from finding her client Marion a potential holiday home on a budget of £120,000.
She visited a ‘beautifully restored’ three-bedroom property, made up of two villas, which was priced at over a million pounds.
The 19th-century home featured unusual cone roofs, en-suite bathrooms and an outdoor pool.
Danni gushed about the ‘simple and minimalist’ décor, however viewers were less impressed by the layout of the home.
Commenting on the location of the en-suite, they wrote: ‘Great, very convenient if you want to see your partner having a poo through a frosted window while you’re trying to get to sleep.’
Though million-pound houses are not a common sight on the show, A Place In The Sun had a spin-off show where they were commonplace.
From 2007 to 2009, A Million Pound Place in the Sun helped prospective buyers find luxury homes, exploring some of the most desirable locations on the European market.
One of the many people Jasmine co-hosted A Place In The Sun with was Jonnie Irwin, also known for Escape To The Country.
Jonnie passed away in February at the age of 50 after a three and a half year battle with terminal lung cancer.
