Whether we’re poking our noses into the latest issue of Architectural Digest or driving by Jackie Chan’s sprawling estate in Hollywood, snooping around in someone else’s home is quite an appealing prospect. When these homes are owned by some of the wealthiest and most famous celebrities in Britain, the need to scratch the itch is even greater.

We might tell ourselves that celebrities are just like us but take one look at their lavish multi-million-dollar palatial homes and hyper rare sports cars, and fiction quickly gives way to reality. Join us as we take a sneak peek into the homes of some of the biggest stars in the United Kingdom.

Tom Hardy – $4.55 Million, Richmond

In mid-2013, Tom Hardy reportedly bought a home in Richmond, southwest London, with neighbors the likes of Richard Ashcroft and Mick Jagger. Later in the year, he secured state permission to extend the stunning Georgian property after building a two-story extension.

However, his home improvement plans made the “Dark Knight Rises” star quite unpopular with some of his neighbors, who later complained about his questionable building plans to the local council. In November 2021, it was reported that Hardy had teamed up with co-star Channing Tatum to star in and produce an Afghan evacuation-themed film for Universal Pictures.
