They're just like us, celebrities: subject to the same planning laws which curtail their ambitious renovation plans, or the inconvenience of a simmering neighbourly dispute.

From Eric Clapton and Harry Styles to Sienna Miller and Liam Gallagher, here are what the stars have been up to in the world of property this year.

CELEBS AT WAR

Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour locked horns with his neighbours this summer over his planning application, filed retrospectively, to build a modest green shed in the corner of his Hampstead garden.

The Hampstead Hill Garden Residents' Association argued that the shed was "obtrusive, overbearing and significantly more visually and physically intrusive than what was originally approved or what stood there before." Others said that the shed was too close to the fence, claiming its foundations and surrounding landscaping were "excessive".

He was ordered to tear it down and rebuild it. Also in Hampstead, Styles faced objections from neighbours over his plans to turn two of his properties into one sprawling mega-home. Planning permission was granted in April, but proposals for further tweaks prompted fresh annoyance. Two formal complaints were lodged with the council in September, with one local telling the Telegraph: "It's sad living next to a building site all the time. The houses are constantly being snapped up by millionaires and redone. There's less community on the street now, and some people are choosing to move away." In the same month, Styles also reportedly bought a fourth house on the same Hampstead street and is said to have moved his girlfriend, Zoë Kravitz, into the compound.
