Inside Jonathan Ross' holiday home worth £2million as star faces planning battle

Jonathan Ross has a whopping net worth of around £30million after his various TV exploits: hosting his own chat show, as well as appearing as a judge on The Masked Singer and doing a stint on Celebrity Traitors this year. It's not so surprising, then, that he's splurged some of his impressive wealth on a gorgeous holiday home with his wife Jane Goldman.

Jonathan purchased a Grade-II listed 16th-century farmhouse in Dorset, which he owns alongside his unusual London home which is full of eclectic furniture, collectibles and artwork. Homes in his Hampstead area are worth around £1.6million - but that didn't stop him splurging a further £2million on the Dorset holiday home.

The home includes a shed area which Jonathan has transformed into his own mancave, along with a stunning garden with plenty of room to sit outside in good weather. The bedrooms, meanwhile, boast chic soft furnishings and huge sitting areas offering a gorgeous view onto the rural landscape outside.

But Jonathan's private abode is under threat, with the star battling local authorities after plans were submitted for a new-build housing estate right next door.

93 homes were set to be built practically on his doorstep - but that number later doubled.

He said in a letter to Dorset Council that the plans would lead to a "distressing loss of privacy", and the height of the new buildings would mean his own property would be "directly overlooked".

He was also concerned about the "change to the fabric of local life caused by so many new dwellings in the area, and the direct impact on traffic and amenities".

Jonathan's home in Hampstead is a far cry from the idyllic rural cottage, including an entire room dedicated to his cats and one storage room full of memorabilia and action figures.

Hampstead has a real mix of property, and many are incredibly attractive to look at. Georgian houses, cottages and large Victorian houses make up the long and winding roads, along with huge mansion flats, luxury penthouses and Edwardian mansions all placed with a little seclusion, for their wealthy owners.
