These Celebrities’ Houses Leave Us With No Words

Ghislaine Maxwell – Bradford, New Hampshire, $1 Million

The British socialite Ghislaine is used to living a life of luxury. Born to media mogul Robert Maxwell, she has a yacht Lady Ghislaine in the Netherland shipyard named after her by her beloved father. When her association with American financier Jeffrey Epstein landed her in trouble with the law, she found a luxurious hideout in the hills of New Hampshire in December 2019.

Ghislaine paid $1 million in cash anonymously via Granite Realty LLC, set up a month before the purchase to avoid leaving a trail. The 156-acre estate with a half a mile high driveway to the gorgeous timbre house is a magnificent property. Alas, she stayed there only till July 2020, when the authorities finally found her.

Bruce Willis – Los Angeles, $9.8 Million

It was a sad day in 2022 when Bruce Willis announced his retirement from acting. He deserves plenty of rest, health, and happiness, especially after entertaining us for four decades with brilliant performances. In 2019, he and his wife Emma moved into their new home at Brentwood Park in Los Angeles, perfect for spending quality time with his loved ones.

The 13,048-square-foot mansion with seven bedrooms, a home theater, spa, pool, and a gym is large enough to host his extended family of ex-wife Demi Moore and their three daughters when they come to visit. Bruce paid $9.8 million for the beautiful property, boasting high ceilings and winding staircases.

Chuck Norris – North Tustin – $3.5 Million

Actor, Airforce veteran, and professional martial artist Chuck Norris are best known for his punches and flying kicks. Even though he played numerous minor roles in many films, his career as an actor took off following his extraordinary performance in Breaker! Breaker!. Plus, the film made millions in the box office collection. At the height of his career, Norris bought the two-acre homely estate in North Tustin.

Currently, the property values a massive $3.5 million. Plus, the 5,500 square-feet home has access to a private lake, saltwater swimming pool, and a grove of trees worth a fortune surrounding it.

George Clooney – Lake Como – $7 Million

While we agree that George Clooney’s Studio City mansion is a sight to watch, nothing can beat his Lake Como home in the Italian suburbs. Hands down, it is an architectural wonder that can give any fancy resort a run for its money!

The Heinz family previously owned the palatial structure, and after the takeover, Clooney had to pump in millions just to cover the renovation costs. After the complete overhaul, the place has a rustic-looking pool, lush greenery, and finely landscaped gardens. Now, we know where the Ocean’s Eleven star is usually unwinding with his family during the summers!

Jack Nicholson – Mulholland Drive – $6.5 Million

When you have had a career spanning over six decades and over $400 million to show for it, then it isn’t surprising that you’d dwell in the most magnificent places. Jack Nicholson has been a resident of Mulholland since 1969 when he purchased his first property.

However, over the years, he has grown to own four homes in the area, recently acquiring the late actor Marlon Brando’s home. Jack decided the 40,000 square feet of land needs some revamping, so he planned to get rid of the house and plant frangipani flowers. Quite an extravagant expenditure this must’ve been!

Ben Affleck – Los Angeles, $20 Million

While currently, Ben Affleck is house hunting with lady love Jennifer Lopez to move in together, he does own some gorgeous properties himself. One of his properties located in Los Angeles is a drool-worthy mansion that cost him around $20 million. Like any other movie star’s home, Ben’s abode has a dedicated theatre room big enough to hold screenings of his latest releases.

Yet, his picture-perfect bedrooms make his pad stand out among other celeb houses, as the white color scheme gives them a clean and aesthetic appearance. The ‘Gone Girl’ star has also made arrangements for a dedicated play area in the garden area for his children when they visit him.

Johnny Depp – $19 Million, Hollywood Hills

When it comes to houses, Johnny Depp is definitely not lacking. He does not own one but several. Safe to say, if he finds himself in different parts of the world, the actor has a home he can stay in.

Depp owns a village in the South of France, an island in the Bahamas, a mansion in England, several penthouses in his native America, a Kentucky ranch, and this property in Hollywood Hills, where he spends a lot of time. We can call this one an estate because it has five mansions, including the 7,430-square-foot main house where the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ star stays. It has eight bedrooms, ten bathrooms, a huge yard, and a swimming pool.

Jennifer Lawrence – Manhattan – $21.9 Million

Given her gross box office collection of a whopping $6 billion, it would be correct to say that our favorite Jennifer Lawrence has now joined Hollywood’s uber-wealthy club. Well, its biggest perk is that she can buy any luxurious mansion across the planet. It appears that she chose the Manhattan west village home that is a perfect blend of contemporary and traditional design.

Her $21.9 million mansion features a picturesque terrace, a huge kitchen, and a luxurious living space that might be the perfect gateway from the starlet’s hectic filming routine!

Quincy Jones – Bel-Air – $5.4 Million

Quincy Jones is a man of refined taste, and that reflects in his choice of home. The composer lived in an opulent 5,500 sq ft mansion that cost him nearly $3 million in the ’80s before selling it for almost double the price.

We are pretty sure that the Bel-Air postcode helped him drive a hard bargain. Moreover, the house is spread over three floors and has six massive bedrooms in the offering. Its pictures make us wonder why Quincy let go of the home in the first place, but it’s onwards to even finer things for this industry legend.

Mark Zuckerberg – Lake Tahoe – $59 Million

When you have a little over $100 billion that’s sitting in the bank, it becomes quite challenging to find a place that is luxurious enough. And that is precisely why Mark Zuckerberg took ownership of not one but two estates in Lake Tahoe!

In 2009, the Facebook founder went all-out and purchased two properties – Carousel Estate and Brushwood Estate – for $59 million. Spread over 10 acres, the compounds house 15 bedrooms and have jetties for boating enthusiasts. All other details about this sprawling holiday home are shrouded in secrecy!

Harry Styles – $4 Million

Harry Styles can almost sing “Started from the bottom now we’re here,” and he wouldn’t just be talking about his music career. The singer has also come a long way in terms of living conditions. From being a small-town boy in a tiny English village, Harry has gone on to own several properties in England and the United States.

One worthy of note is the songwriter’s Beverly Hills mansion which he purchased for $4 million. After undergoing a thorough renovation, the 1967 mansion now boasts manicured lawns, a sleek kitchen space, a swimming pool, and a cozy patio area. Once designed to have five bedrooms, the Beverly Hills house has three rooms.

Chrissy Teigen – Beverly Hills – $17.5 Million

With a husband who loves music and two adorable kids, Chrissy Teigen’s decision to move to Beverly Hills might be the best idea. Generously laid out over a massive 11,000 square-feet, the luxury mansion has everything the family could have ever asked for in a home.

Besides, given that Chrissy Teigen is an accomplished cookbook author, it was apparent that she left no stone unturned to get the perfect kitchen. Apart from that, the backyard infinity pool says it all about the rest of the estate. We must say that only a few people are lucky enough to own a place like this!

Jay Leno – Rhode Island – $13.5 Million

With a massive fortune of $400 million, Jay Leno is undoubtedly among the wealthiest television hosts. A few years ago, his wife pointed at the 9-acres of land while riding along the Ocean Drive. Well, Jay fulfilled his wife’s wish and bought the property for a staggering $13.5 million. It turns out that Jay also loved the mansion, thanks to its six-car garage. Which cars enthusiast would say no to that, right?

The house has access to a private beach, a swimming pool, tennis court, and fourteen bedrooms that are complemented with breathtaking interiors. Interestingly, numerous high-profile American’s have been there, including former Presidents!

Leonardo DiCaprio – Malibu – $10.95 Million

The home is as luxurious as possible, with three separate structures, the main house containing four bedrooms and a two-bedroom guest house.

If DiCaprio has several guests over, then there’s an extra one-bedroom building with an office and a gym. After calling Malibu home for close to two decades, the actor listed the house for $10 million; today, one can rent it for approximately $109K per month.

Lara Gut Behrami – Genoa, Undisclosed Amount

Gut Behrami has been having an amazing time on the snow as she continued making incredible lap times in her skiing career. As you can already tell, her job description is quite physical meaning she needs regular recovery intervals. There’s no better way to do this than to have a couple of majestic homes with immaculate views.

The athlete shares several homes but the ones located in Genoa and Udine take the top spots with the Genoa apartment serving as the main base for her husband who plays in the area. The outstanding feature of these homes is their view, with one located by the sea and the other in the mountains meaning she’s able to enjoy both work and play intermittently.

Dr. Phil – Beverly Hills – $5.75 Million

Almost everyone living in the US might have heard the name Dr. Phil, thanks to his popular television show. The outstanding host owns a luxurious house in Beverly Hills that Phil bought for a whopping $5.75 million. Surrounded by lush green trees, an outdoor kitchen, a heated pool, and a spa, the estate matches the star medical professional’s taste for luxury.

Besides that, we are sure that you would be stunned to see the interiors decorated with an original display of twelve g*** and expensive yet strange artworks. In short, the 6,100 square-feet house is eccentrically exceptional!

Robert De Niro – Gardiner – Undisclosed Price

Robert De Niro is arguable among the greatest actors of all time who has achieved massive success during his long career and has over half a billion dollars to show for it. With that kind of money, it’s not surprising that the director splashed a few million to purchase a massive piece of property that contains 2,700 feet of Hudson riverbank.

The lot has numerous separate buildings, with the main house coming with six bedrooms and seven baths, a boxing room, a gym, and a movie theater. When Robert’s visitors come over, they can stay at the guesthouses and enjoy a game of tennis during their downtime.

Jenna Fischer – Los Angeles, $1.9 Million

Once you become a millionaire, you must learn how to spend it wisely. With this in mind, Jenna Fischer picked a standout $1.9 million Mediterranean palazzo that sprawls on the scenic California foothills. For ‘The Office’ actress who owns a $14 million purse, we expect nothing less.

Whenever Fischer takes a break from work, she tarries her precious time in her gorgeous 4,565 square foot dig. The expansive two-story architecture previously owned by baseball legend Casey Stengel makes room for avant-garde amenities such as an athletic field and a pool, blended warmly by a private orchard garden. It’s even worth the chase inside as the upper levels are furnished with five bedrooms and comfortable sitting rooms.

Wesley Snipes – New Jersey – $4.125 Million

After starring in the Blades films trilogy, Wesley Snipes rose to fame, which brought him loads of money and landed him more leading roles. After struggling with some off-screen issues that saw him lose some of his wealth, he bounced back and is set to appear in an upcoming film Coming 2 America.

For most of his career, Snipes was known to live in this magnificent home in the Alpine area, which, while he hasn’t given the public a tour of his abode, looks incredibly beautiful. The actor decided to let the property go in 2014, and we bet he moved into bigger digs!

Kathie Lee Gifford – Florida – $10.5 Million

Kathie Lee Gifford is a veteran television personality who hosted The Today Show and several other highly rated programs before retiring in 2019. With her successful career on T.V., it’s no wonder the host comfortably forked out $10 million on this magnificent property in Florida.

Steve Harvey – California – $165 Million

Thanks to his years of hard work and determination, Steve Harvey rose to national fame and became a well-known figure worldwide. You might be shocked to find out that the star currently boasts a massive net worth of $45 million. We are sure that with a number like that in his bank account, his fans won’t be surprised to find out that his family paid $110,000 per month for the Beverly Park mansion.

It would be safe to say it must have been merely a pocket change for the Family Feud host. The gigantic 11,200 square-feet estate features eight bathrooms and five bedrooms.

Joss Whedon – $5.8 Million, Santa Monica

With a highly successful career as a director, screenwriter, and producer, which has contributed to having a massive net worth of $100 Million, Joss Whedon can undoubtedly afford to splurge on a $5.8 million home. The 1,200 square-foot property with seven bedrooms and ten bathrooms was acquired by Whedon and his wife, Kai Cole, in 2013.

The exquisite mansion overlooks a Santa Monica country club and is said to have been featured in one of the director’s films ‘Much Ado About Nothing.’ Still, rumor has it that Whedon also purchased a $7.2 million luxurious mini-mansion in 2017, befitting his status as a Hollywood star.

Sidney Poitier – Beverly Hills – Undisclosed Price

Not many people have managed the honor of a knighthood for their work in art, but Sidney Poitier is one of them, and it’s easy to see why. The actor is an outright legend with several Oscar awards and numerous commercially and critically successful films under his belt.

Now retired, Poitier resides at his opulent home in the posh neighborhood of Beverly Hills. The abode is fit for a knight, with the interior fitted with royal decorations and furniture, all of which are selections made by the actor’s wife, Joanna Shimkus. Stepping outdoors, you’ll find a sprawling swimming pool and three-car garage among the amenities the couple gets to utilize.

Brigitte Bardot – France – $5.6 Million

Even though Brigitte Bardot is pretty much retired these days, she was quite a popular woman during her heydays. In the early 50s, she rose to national and international fame as an actress and, almost a decade later, began pursuing a career in the music industry. But since her retirement, Bardot has been an activist, and we think it would be fair to say that she’s done it all.

The stunning actress spends most of her time in the thirteen-century mansion, which features a lavish interior, wight bedrooms, a living area with fireplace and French doors, an infinity pool, and a large kitchen.

Al Pacino – New York – $3.3 Million

You know you have made it in life when you use a 2.5-acre estate in New York as a guest house, which is precisely what Al Pacino did. The legendary actor owned this palatial property for several years before deciding to let it go in 2013.

The Dick Van Dyke Show star’s former abode is nearly 12,000 sq ft huge and located on an estate that spreads across 1.37 acres of meticulously maintained gardens. With facilities like a stone fireplace, a massive wine cellar, and a tennis court, the $6.5 million selling price sounds like a tremendous bargain to us!

Donald Sutherland – Palisades Beach – $3 Million

Donald Sutherland’s Palisades Beach remains commendable for its designs and brilliant architecture. Hardwood flooring, mahogany fittings, and cathedral-style ceilings – the twin-bedroom three-bath house truly has it all. Ever since Donald vacated, the 1980-built manor saw its valuation go up to $3 million, translating into a monthly lease of $15K.

Now, it’s his son Roger’s turn to make news in the real estate circles of Los Angeles. The junior Sutherland took ownership of a midcentury home for nearly $5.3 million. It seems that the entire family has an eye for all things good!
