These Celebrities’ Houses Leave Us With No Words
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!
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.
Brad Pitt – Long Island – $25 Million
Almost everyone agrees that Brad Pitt might be Hollywood’s ultimate heartthrob and has millions of fans worldwide. While still together with her former wife Angelina Jolie, the power-couple rented the gigantic 22,000 square-foot mansion in Long Island during the filming of Jolie’s superhit film Salt. You might not know, but that gorgeous estate even has access to a private beach.
With a 48-foot cathedral ceiling, the entrance of the eight-bedroom mansion is through a great hall. Only recently, the property sold for a staggering $25 million. We wonder who the lucky owner of the massive estate is!
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!

Max Baer Jr. – Paradise – Undisclosed Price
A closer look at this picture will reveal that he is Max Baer Jr., the man who played Jethro Bodine in The Beverly Hillbillies. As the former actor inched closer to retirement, he tried to venture into the world of entrepreneurship and set up an entertainment zone.
After the business failed to take off, he decided to hang his boots and settle down in his comfortable Nevada home. Except for the fact that Max resides in the vicinity of Paradise, not much is known about his place. And yes, we still don’t understand why he doesn’t live in Beverly Hills!
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.
Ron Howard – Connecticut – $27.5 Million
Starting as a child actor to one of the most renowned film directors is the dream life that Ron Howard is living. In the process, he’s earned himself a net worth of about $160 million; it’s no surprise that he is living large!
Picture a 32-acre piece of land with a mansion sitting on over 17,000 square feet and a fantastic view of the Converse lake; this just happened to be his home in Connecticut. However, he recently listed the property for $27.5 million, but not before enjoying its six bedrooms, five bathrooms, an indoor pool, a theatre, and even a billiard room.
Dick Van Dyke – Encino – $6.5 Million
Dick Van Dyke obviously needs a big home to showcase the numerous Emmys and a Grammy award. So the golden-ear actor chose a magnificent villa in the vicinity of Los Angeles’s Encino area, where he lived until 2016.
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!
Maggie Smith – West Sussex – $7.7 Million
We would forgive you for thinking that Maggie Smith, who brilliantly portrayed Professor McGonagall in the Harry Potter films, lives in Hogwarts. In a property built in the 15th century, the actress resides in West Sussex, but that’s not what we’re talking about today.
If you have watched Downtown Abbey, you’ve seen Maggie star in the series as well, and she dwells at the Byfleet Manor, which in real life belonged to Julie Hutton. The businesswoman sold the 18-acre estate in 2015, and it comes with unique pieces of priceless and tasteful antiquities.
