We\u2019re really hoping this Christmas wish comes true. If the rumours are correct, she will star as Cinderella in a production at the London Palladium. That sure beats Christopher Biggins! Obviously Britney will need a place to stay so how about this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benhams.com\/hyde-park\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">offering<\/a> in nearby Mayfair.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Consciously uncoupled?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Just before Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow consciously uncoupled, the two bought a \u00a34.7 million house just across the road from the one they already owned. Following the split, Martin moved into the new place so he could still spend lots of time with the couple\u2019s kids, Moses and Apple. The arrangement must have become too cosy as Martin has now sold the property for nearly doubled what they paid. Maybe Martin will move back to north London? If so, we have this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benhams.com\/hampstead\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">property<\/a> that\u2019s certainly suitable for a rock star.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>It has it all<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7098\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7098\" style=\"width: 230px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"https:\/\/www.benhams.com\/property-imperial-wharf-18811\/ wp-image-7098\" src=\"https:\/\/www.benhams.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/13-Courtyard-House-SW6-ReceptionB-22.04.2016.jpg\" alt=\"Main\" width=\"230\" height=\"154\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7098\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fulham, SW6<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Tara Palmer-Tomkinson was the It Girl of the Noughties. Her society connections, waif-like body and glossy hair ensured she was never far from the society pages. After a well-publicised meltdown, the I\u2019m a Celebrity\u2026 runner up has turned her life around and reinvented herself as a fashion designer. She has moved house, as well, but if you want a trip back in time, consider snapping up her former Fulham home. The house only has one bedroom and measures just over 600 square feet. If you need a bit more space than that, this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benhams.com\/imperial-wharf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">flat<\/a> in Fulham is substantially bigger.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Hipster homewares<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>One of Britain\u2019s most celebrated fashion designers has just introduced a line of homewares at Habitat. Henry Holland brings his House of Holland look to a variety of household objects including chairs, cushions, rugs and crockery. All make use of Holland\u2019s signature bright colours and bold prints. The designer is a Londoner through and through, making his home in trendy Victoria Park and walking to his studios in London Fields. He recently described his terraced house as having a back \u201cyarden\u201d rather than a garden. Maybe a bit more colour would help, Henry? We have this nearby <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benhams.com\/canary-wharf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">apartment<\/a> if he fancies something even lower maintenance.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Happy Birthday, Ma&#8217;am<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7101\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7101\" style=\"width: 230px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7101\" src=\"https:\/\/www.benhams.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Cadogan-square-44-flat-4-reception.jpg\" alt=\"Main\" width=\"230\" height=\"143\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7101\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Knightsbridge, SW1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Queen recently celebrated her 90th birthday. While we\u2019re all looking forward to the celebrations later this year, especially the lucky few who managed to bag a ticket for the controversial Patron\u2019s Lunch on The Mall which promises to be the world\u2019s largest street party. The Queen, along with a few other members of the royal family, is the official host, not that she has to stroll far from Buckingham Palace. Interestingly, one London sales agent has valued Buckingham Palace at \u00a32.2 billion based on just the size alone. The 828,831 square foot palace also boasts the largest private garden in London.
