Homeownership is something that most of us have dreamt about since our early childhood years. The realities of adulthood make it impossible for the majority to attain this goal, and soon, it becomes a dream that is quickly abandoned altogether. Swanky mansions that come with all the bells and whistles cost a pretty penny.
Famous people have similar goals in life, but the only difference is that their fortunes allow them to realize such dreams. It's especially true when talking about homeownership, and most celebrities have luxurious roofs over their heads. Here are 51 famous folks who reside, or have lived, in opulent residences.
Corey Harrison - Las Vegas ($2.39 Million)
Corey Harrison, known for appearances on "Pawn Stars," lived out the dream of buying his dream home. Driving past a Las Vegas spread on his way to Centennial High School, he vowed to buy a 7,069-square-foot mansion that always caught his eye. In 2013, it became a reality when he moved into the abode but three years later, he listed the seven-bedroom spread for $2.39M.
The residence went through extensive renovations when he shared its roof with his former wife Charlene. Harrison continues gracing the History Channel show based on the Silver Pawn Shop, where he serves as the store manager. He further impressed fans in 2021 with his 200-pound weight loss.
Hoda Kotb - Long Island ($2 Million)
Hoda Kotb and Joel Schiffman, her fiance, alongside their two daughters share two beautiful homes. That includes a four-bedroom estate in Long Island and an Upper Manhattan apartment. In 2020 when she took some time away from her hosting duties on "Today," Kotb gave us a glimpse inside her spacious waterfront mansion.
She shared an Instagram post showcasing the patio area where she gave Schiffman a haircut. Fans also got a glimpse of the garden attached to the residence which includes a decorative trellis and a stone pavement. The home also comes with a private swimming dock and reportedly costs $2M.
Erin Burnett - Manhattan (Undisclosed)
When she isn't caught up anchoring her CNN show, "Erin Burnett OutFront," a two-bedroom on Broadway offers her solace. Located close to the Lincoln Center, the apartment complex is also near Central Park. Like other residents, Burnett enjoys access to a residential lounge, community swimming pool, parking garage, a training club, and a 24-hour doorman.
It isn't clear what she paid for the unit, but other apartments in the building go for a monthly rental price of $13.2K. Given that she maintains a low profile away from the screen, it isn’t clear whether she has other residences shared with her husband David Rubulotta and their two children.
Bill Gates - Washington ($130 Million)
Few people can say that they haven't heard about software developer/business magnate Bill Gates. His illustrious career with companies like Microsoft, Cascade Investment, and TerraPower contributed to his $139B fortunes, as of 2022. It isn't surprising that he retreats to an eco-friendly, tech-plugged abode at the end of each day.
Dubbed "Xanadu 2.0," calling it a super mansion is an understatement, and the seven-bedroom spread was the culmination of a seven-year-long construction process. Valued at an estimated $130M, as per Business Insider, Gates shares the 66,000-square-foot residence with his wife Melinda. Even more impressive, he purchased the house for $2M in 1988.
Stephen Curry - San Francisco ($31 Million)
Coming off of his October 2021 victory, when he was honored as one of the league's greatest and named as part of the NBA 75 team, Stephen Curry finds comfort and relaxation at home. To be precise, the swanky 1.2-acre pad is located in San Francisco's Atherton neighborhood, and it reportedly cost him $31M.
It was the most expensive house purchased in the Bay Area in 2019 but given that the sale was off the market, pictures and other details about the residence are slim. Curry and his wife Ayesha have probably given the three-level mansion their personal touch, adding to the lush flora and plantings surrounding it.
Danica Patrick - Arizona ($4.065 Million)
Danica Patrick joined Sky Sports F1 in 2021 as a pundit for the United States Grand Prix. The former Indy Car racer turned winemaker is also the proud owner of a stunning 8,300-square-foot spread in Scottsdale, Arizona. Speaking to Wine Spectator, she explained that her house resembles a flying saucer hence the reason she nicknamed her digs the "Jetson's House."
The mansion features disc shapes throughout alongside sheathed walls. Patrick spent $4.065M on the purchase making it the Valley's priciest home sales in 2007. Her open-plan kitchen features the cosmic theme as well while her outdoor space is primed for entertaining with stunning views of the Camelback Mountain.
Wolf Blitzer - Maryland($1.34 Million)
A false emergency message had police knocking on Wolf Blitzer's door in April 2013. The officers, who were alerted to a shooting incident, set up a perimeter outside the CNN's Bethesda home. It soon turned out to be a fake distress call and when Blitzer was phoned, he assured the dispatch supervisor that he was fine and out of town at the time.
The house in question has sheltered him since 1990. It isn't clear what Blitzer, who served as CNN's lead political anchor until 2021, spent on the purchase but the house is valued at an estimated $1.34M. He shares the home with his wife Lynn Greenfield and their daughter Ilana.
Chris Cuomo - Southampton ($2.9 Million)
Chris Cuomo and his wife Cristina Greeven decided to part with their Southampton residence in 2019. They reportedly spent $1.3M on the purchase in 2005 and listed it asking for $2.9M. Sitting on half an acre, the five-bedroom mansion comes with four bathrooms alongside a host of other attractive features spread over its 3,000-square-feet.
The Cuomos weren't left without a roof over their heads, and since giving up the residence, they moved into a seven-room apartment in a '20s cooperative located on Park Avenue. They scooped up the unit in 2011 for a reported $2.9995M. Cuomo left his positions at SiriusXM and CNN in 2021.
George Stephanopoulos - Hamptons ($5.995 Million)
George Stephanopoulos listed his Hamptons hideaway in 2018 for $5.995M. He has resided in the 4,800-square-foot abode with his wife Ali Wentworth alongside their two children since 2013. The couple spent $4.5M buying the mansion and as per Variety, they initially listed the five-bedroom spread in 2016 for $6.995M.
Resting on a one-and-a-half lot, the beach house is situated at the end of a private lane. Hydrangea bushes and densely planted trees further offer some much-needed privacy from prying eyes. Some of the other noteworthy features include a sunken tennis court and an oversized swimming pool. Stephanopoulos vacated his position as ABC News' Chief Anchor in 2021.
Kathie Lee Gifford - Nashville ($3.7 Million)
In 2021, Kathie Lee Gifford received a star on 6834 Hollywood Boulevard recognizing her contributions to the TV industry. She can always hop on a plane to visit the honorary monument from her home in Nashville. In 2019, she moved from Connecticut to Tennessee and found solace in a 7.695-square-foot brownstone.
Located in the wealthy suburb of Franklin, Gifford parted with $3.7M for the mansion. Not much else is known about her residence but we've gotten sneak peeks of it when she's opened up her doors to various outlets for interviews. On the work front, she released a Christian faith publication in 2021.
Vanna White - Beverly Hills ($38 Million)
Vanna White is known for her long-standing partnership with Pat Sajak on the ABC game show "Wheel of Fortune." In 2021, they co-hosted "Celebrity Wheel of Fortune" and both inked extension deals to run through to the 2023/24 season. Away from the glitz and glam, she equally lives in the lap of luxury judging from her former Beverly Hills mansion.
Occupying a 5.08-acre lot, the mansion itself covers 14,554 square feet. White and her ex-husband George Santo Pietro commissioned the build in the '90s. The eye-popping $38M listing price was supported by highlights like a wine cellar, private vineyard, mini-spa, and a home theater. White had previously listed the residence in 2017 for $47.5M.
Bob Barker - South Dakota($137.9 Thousand)
His long-running time as the host of "The Price is Right" contributed to Bob Barker's $70M fortunes. These days he is enjoying life away from the spotlight after retiring in 2007 following his 35-year career hosting the show. He is also known for his extensive philanthropy supporting various charitable causes but his wealth is also spent on life's luxuries.
At one time, Barker called a five-bedroom abode in South Dakota home. The 5,575-square-foot features a fireplace, a wet bar, vaulted ceilings, and a porch. Barker listed it in 2017 for $137.9K. As per the listing on Trulia, Barker made several additions to the residence including installing heated floors in 2002.
Sean Hannity - Long Island ($9.5 Million)
Sean Hannity built his $250M fortunes as a conservative talk show host. He is known to splurge on real estate and in 2021, he added a $5.3M Florida abode to his list of addresses. As per CNBC, Hannity has been linked to at least two dozen shell companies that have collectively purchased about 900 properties.
One such address is an 11,400-square-foot Long Island home that he bought in 2008 for $8.5M. The seven-bedroom residence was constructed in 2002. Some of the highlights include seven fireplaces, a private dock, a tennis court, and a swimming pool. Realtor.com estimates that the mansion's current value is $9.5M.
Howie Mandel - California ($2.6 Million)
Howie Mandel is a familiar face from the judging panels of multiple reality shows including "Canada's Got Talent" from 2022. When he isn't busy filming, his time is spent at one of the Southern California residences he owns. His Hidden Hills ranch-style abode is amongst the most impressive, which is quite the statement given that his other enclaves cost upwards of $10M.
The single-story digs cost him $2.6M and it comes with four bedrooms. The interior space also includes a family room, fireplaces, and a gallery-style kitchen. Outside, a swimming pool and two-stall barn take up part of the sprawling grounds.
Ice-T – New Jersey ($2.199 Million)
Ice-T, the 2021 Best Metal Performance Grammy winner, is the proud owner of a five-bedroom Edgewater condo. He shares the 4,200-square-foot space with his wife Nicole "Coco" Austin and their daughter Chanel. The couple welcomed People to their abode for an exclusive tour, and as per what they told the publication, they each have different favorite spots.
Coco prefers the laundry room where they've fitted a red washer and dryer. Ice-T, born Tracy Lauren Marrow, loves their bedroom more and it could have a thing to do with the 80-inch TV they have in the room, and the space is also decorated in a red and black theme.
Tim Allen - L.A. ($2.15 Million)
Tim Allen entertained us for a decade on "Last Man Standing" and he is equally known for appearances on "Home Improvement." Since 2021, he has been co-hosting "Assembly Required." When work commitments don't take him away from Los Angeles, his three-bedroom abode serves as the perfect retreat.
He reportedly spent $2.15M purchasing the 5,808-square-foot home in 1999. Allen previously owned a Hollywood Hills address that he bought for $1.4M. The three-bedroom residence was slightly smaller offering 2,604 square feet of living space. As per the Los Angeles Times, Allen offloaded the ranch-style for $1,755M.
Robert Downey - East Hamptons ($11.9 Million)
Robert Downey and his wife Susan worked with Joe Nahem to transform the 19th century DeRose Windmill House they bought into their dream home. The residence might look familiar to anyone who has watched the 1982 movie "Deathtrap," because the exterior was featured in the Sidney Lumet film. They purchased the picturesque abode in 2017 for $10.5M.
One of the biggest transformations made was reconfiguring the living room. The couple welcomed Architectural Digest to their home in 2017, and the "Iron Man" star summed up their abode as fun, whimsy, and not boring. Downey continues gracing our screens in productions like the 2020 film "Dolittle" and he has more upcoming roles lined up.
Betty White - Carmel ($2 Million)
The world is still coming to terms with the passing of veteran actress Betty White in December 2021. Sources closest to her say that the "Golden Girls" starlets longed to spend her final days at her Carmel, California home but it didn't come to pass. Instead, her Brentwood home served as her haven until she took her final breath.
White and Allen Lunden, her late husband, purchased the Carmel residence in 1978 for $170K. They constructed the home that rests on the 0.28-acre lot from the ground up, and it took three years to complete the two-bedroom home. Stretching out over 3,600 square feet, Realtor.com estimates that its current value is $2M.
Cher - Malibu ($1.5 Million)
It was a pleasant sight to see Grammy award winner Cher team up with rapper Saweetie for the MAC Cosmetics 2022 "Challenge Accepted" campaign. Other than being an accomplished and respected artist, Cher is also a real estate mogul, and her lavish list of assets includes her renaissance-style Malibu digs. She purchased the home in the '90s for $1.5M.
Her friend Ron Wilson helped convert the space into her ideal Italian sanctuary, inspired by her trips to Venice and Casa Casuarina. The three-story structure occupies 16,000 square feet and overlooks the Pacific Ocean. Resting on a 1.72-acre lot, the palm tree-lined grounds also include a tennis court as well as a guest house.
Jimmie Johnson - New York ($14.25 Million)
Jimmie Kenneth Johnson announced that he's scheduled to contest during the 2022 Indycar schedule representing Chip Ganassi Racing. Also a NASCAR Cup Series champion, his career has netted him an estimated $160M. Like most, part of his wealth has gone towards buying a luxurious residence for his family. Alongside his wife Chandra and their two daughters, Johnson occupies a New York apartment.
The couple moved to the West Village in 2009 and after welcoming their daughter Lydia, they moved to a larger unit in the same apartment complex. They worked with Shawn Henderson to outfit their $14.25M home with a touch of softness and sophistication.
Winona Ryder - Beverly Hills ($4 Million)
Winona Ryder has entertained us in a series of critically acclaimed productions including "Beetlejuice," "Girl Interrupted," and "Stranger Things" from 2016 to 2022. From living off of suitcases, as she told Architectural Digest in 1994, she purchased two homes simultaneously. Her Mediterranean-inspired Beverly Hills abode was lovingly restored by Kevin Haley.
Part of the restoration involved giving the steeply sloping backyard and patio into a romantic garden. It soon became one of Ryder's favorite spots and where she'd spend days painting. Haley also helped decorate her two-bedroom apartment in New York with jewel-toned accents, Italian art, and '30s/'40s antique furniture.
Brooke Shields - New York ($4.3 Million)
Brooke Shields cemented her place in Hollywood when she delivered a memorable performance in "The Blue Lagoon." Her career continued on an upward trajectory, and in 2021, she reminded us why she's still an A-lister on "A Castle for Christmas." In between filming, her home in The Hamptons serves as the perfect hideaway.
In 2015, she opened up her doors to Better Homes and Gardens magazine for their September issue. Her decor is best described as playful and plush with pops of color. Shields and her husband Chris Henchy bought the six-bedroom abode for $4.3M and gave it an extensive facelift.
Aaron Rodgers - Malibu ($28 Million)
Aaron Rodgers had a big year in 2021, from being named the season's NFL MVP to his engagement with Shailene Woodley. The betrothed couple are perhaps shopping for new accomodation given that Woodley might not be too keen on sharing the luxe $28M pad the Green Bay Packers' quarterback purchased with his ex-girlfriend, Danica Patrick, in 2019.
The palatial Malibu beach house has been shrouded in mystery since the former couple split, and it's not clear who kept living in it following their 2020 breakup. Robbie Williams formerly owned the fabulous home, and Janet Jackson once leased it. Offering 4,636 square feet of living space, the views of the Pacific Ocean are undoubtedly its main highlight.
Peyton Manning – Denver ($6.01 Million)
Peyton Manning, a 2021 Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee, makes the right moves both on and off the field. His highest-paid status allowed him to drop hefty sums on homes including the 16,464 square feet Georgian-style spread he owns in Cherry Hill. Constructed in 2004, the seven-bedroom mansion rests on 3.37 acres.
The residence features highlights like a game room, seven-vehicle heated garage, elevator, and a wine cellar. Even Manning's beloved pooch gets the royal treatment with a heated indoor/outdoor dog kennel. He bought the mansion in 2012 for $4.575M but as of 2020, the valuation stands at $6.010M.
Cheryl Tiegs - Los Angeles ($14.075 Million)
The third time proved to be the charm for Cherly Tiegs when she listed her Balinese-style home. She tried offloading the Bel Air residence two previous times, and initially, in 2012 the asking price was $12M. Tiegs re-listed the abode in 2015 for $15M and once again in 2019 for $18.5M. She eventually got a buyer in 2020 who bought the mansion for $14.075M.
Tiegs still made a sizable profit from the sale, given that she bought the four-bedroom house in 1996 for $2.5M. Constructed as a '50s ranch house, the residence went through several transformations to become the present tropical-themed extravaganza. The 4,770-square-foot mansion occupies the 1.43-acre lot.
Cardi B - Atlanta ($5.8 Million)
Cardi B and her husband Offset welcomed their second child in 2021, and their swanky 22,000-square-foot spread has more than enough room for their expanding family. The couple purchased the Sandy Springs mansion in 2019 for $5.79M. The circa-2006 colossus has five bedrooms, four half baths, and seven full bathrooms.
The European-style structure oozes luxury and is reminiscent of what you'd see on a music video. A pool, 1,800-bottle wine cellar, and a four-vehicle garage are also found on the grounds. There's also a gun range on the sprawling six acres which is clad with steel walls.
Eva Mendes - California ($1.269 Million)
Eva Mendes and her partner Ryan Gosling parted ways with their Los Feliz manor in 2021. The tabloids were buzzing with reports that the couple was gearing up for a potential move to Canada to raise their two children. It wasn't until they closed on the sale for $4.9M that the rumors started taking shape.
That isn't the only Hollywood spread Mendes sold, and in 2014, she offloaded a three-bedroom abode she co-owned with her former flame George Gargurevich. The 1,732-square-foot spread fetched an impressive $1.269M translating to a decent profit against its $584K purchase price in 2002.
Sheryl Crow - Nashville ($5.2 Million)
Winning nine Grammy Awards comes with a huge bankroll, and in Sheryl Crow's case, she is worth $70M. When it comes to where she rests her head at the end of each day, Architectural Digest describes her Nashville compound as a Southern Dreamscape. Crow occupies the 50 acres alongside her two sons, Levi and Wyatt.
Besides the main house, the grounds include horse stables, a ten-stall barn, and a saloon. She told Country Living that having a studio on-site means that she can go to work down the driveway. Crow also constructed a structure that serves as a chapel. As for the price tag, ABC News reported that she spent $5.2M on the residence.
Tom Hanks - Los Angeles ($26 Million)
Two Oscar wins, out of six Best Actor nominations, alongside a slew of other accolades back up Tom Cruise's talents. He isn't nearly done with the industry, and in 2021 we saw him outdo himself in the TV series "1883." At the end of an exhausting shoot day, Hanks goes back to the Pacific Palisades compound he shares with his wife Rita Wilson.
The couple dropped $26M to acquire the 14,513-square-foot home in 2010. Offering four bedrooms and five bathrooms, the cliffside mansion exudes a modern, sleek feel. There's also a swimming pool on the grounds, but other details about the residence, much like the couple's personal life, are scant.
Tom Brady - California ($40 Million)
Tom Brady has an extensive portfolio of properties, and that includes the pictured Brentwood compound that he formerly owned. The five-bedroom residence was part of the 18,000-square feet grounds that included other attractive features like an infinity pool and a moat inhabited by koi.
Brady, who signed a one-year extension deal in 2021 with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and his better half, Gisele Bündchen, bought the residence in 2008 for $11.75M. They made a massive profit from the sale in 2014 when hip hop mogul Dr. Dre took the limestone mansion off their hands for $40M. A wooden dock, cabana, underground spa, and library are also amongst the highlights.
Clint Eastwood - California ($9.75 Million)
Clint Eastwood's "Cry Macho" was released in 2021 to mixed reviews but the earnings still contributed to his $375M fortunes. These days he's settled at his Carmel, California Mission Ranch. He formerly occupied a Pebble Beach residence that he purchased in 1994 for $3,295M. In 2017, he decided to part ways with the home dubbed "Hacienda Este Madera" for $9.75M.
Variety described the six-bedroom mansion as a residence that had hosted iconic dinner parties attended by musicians, artists, and dignitaries from the world over. The 6,900-square-foot residence features a terracotta tiled roof and Spanish-style wooden entrance doors. All the other structures on the 4.7-acre lot feature a rustic aesthetic.
Nicolas Cage - San Francisco ($10 Million)
At one point, Nicolas Cage had amassed $150M, the majority of which he spent on luxury vehicles, islands, and even zoo animals. Picking up roles in 2021 films "Pig” and "Prisoners of the Ghostland" helped bring his fortunes back to about $25M. Cage also owned multiple homes, and one of his former San Francisco went on the market for $10M.
Located on 898 Francisco Street, there weren't any takers for the six-bedroom abode when he initially listed it in 2017 for $12M. Cage re-listed the mansion in 2018 asking for $11M, and the $1M price drop in 2020 still didn't attract any buyers. It wasn't until 2021 that the residence finally went into contract.
Mel Gibson - Costa Rica ($29.75 Million)
Whether he's working behind the scenes or starring in the next big blockbuster; Mel Gibson has proven time and again that he's a bankable star. He maintains a busy schedule since gracing the 2021 films "Dangerous" and "Last Looks," Gibson still finds time to unwind, and once upon a time, that meant vacationing at his Costa Rican abode.
In 2017, he listed both his Malibu mansion as well as a remote Costa Rica spread. He slashed $5.25M off of the initial $35M price tag which is quite the deal for a compound that includes a two-mile stretch of the Costa Rican coastline. The main house includes seven bedrooms while two guest houses are also part of the package.
Sam Elliott - Oregon (Undisclosed)
For a man who has portrayed Old Western characters and members of the law enforcement on screen, it isn't surprising that Sam Elliot lives on a ranch. "The Big Lebowski" star is a Sacramento native but he found a second home at a 200-acre Oregon spread. As per The Register-Guard, Elliot and his wife Katharine Ross reportedly only spent about a month each year at their Linn County abode.
They also have a three-bedroom, 3,680-square-foot Malibu ranch. Constructed in 1983, the wooden structure exudes a cabin vibe and has a large stone fireplace to boot. While it isn't clear what he spent on the Oregon abode, the Malibu spread cost $4.198M. Since 2021, Elliot graces our screens in the Western series "1883."
Dolly Parton - Brentwood ($400K)
Dolly Parton kicked off 2022 with the release of the single "Big Dreams and Faded Jeans" off of her upcoming album "Run, Rose, Run." The release of her 48th album alongside a same-titled book might see her hit the road for promotional tours. Until then, Parton is well pre-occupied at the Nashville abode she shares with her husband Carl Dean.
The pair purchased the Brentwood residence in 1999 for $400K. Some of its highlights include a chapel, a farm, tennis court, and swimming pool. The "Jolene" singer also has a music room at home decked out with a black piano. She also has a room filled with her enormous award collection.
Terry Bradshaw - Oklahoma ($10.8 Million)
Since 2020, retired NFL star and his family has been entertaining us on the E! reality series "The Bradshaw Bunch." The second season premiered in 2021, and we've seen glimpses of his vast properties across Dallas and Oklahoma City. One address, in particular, is quite the spectacle but has presented a challenge for Bradshaw when it comes to finding a new occupant.
The 744-acre ranch in Oklahoma features a rustic-style main house that covers 8,600 square feet. It comes with six bedrooms, an open entertaining space, and eight bathrooms. The wooden floors blend well with the stone fireplaces, and outside, there's a 1,000-square-foot patio. The listing price as of 2020 stands at $10.8M.
Britney Spears - California ($7.4 Million)
Britney Spears had quite the year in 2021; from getting engaged to Sam Asghari to finally having her conservatorship come to an end. Throughout, she found comfort inside her 21-acre Thousand Oaks compound. Spears bought the five-bedroom spread in 2015 for a reported $7.4M.
The tranquil setting is punctuated by the view of the surrounding mountains and valley. The main house takes up 12,464 square feet with features like eight bathrooms, a chef's kitchen, a formal living room, an oak library, and a media room. There's also a swimming pool on-site as well as a 3,500-bottle wine cellar.

Together with their daughters Sunday and Faith, the family has their pick of multiple houses across different cities. They bought a 12,000 square feet Nashville residence in 2008 for $3.47M.
We've gotten updated glimpses of different rooms in their seven-bedroom abode through Kidman's 2021 Instagram posts.

The residence also has a pool, tennis court, home recording studio, and theater.
Matthew McConaughey - Austin ($4 Million)
Matthew McConaughey teased at running for the 2022 Texas governor's seat but right before the filing deadline in late 2021, he revealed that he wouldn't be competing for the office after all. A Texas native, he also set roots in the state with the purchase of a 10,000-square-foot mansion in Austin. Purchased in 2012, McConaughey spent $4M on the Spanish Med-style home.

Scarlett Johansson - Los Angeles ($3.88 Million)
Scarlett Johansson and her husband Colin Jost expanded their family with the birth of their son Cosmo in 2021. The family splits their time between their New York and Los Angeles residences. Their L.A. abode is a 3,500-square-foot spread which Johansson purchased in 2014. She reportedly paid $3.88M for the two-story home.
Resting on about an acre of land, the '40 home offers four bedrooms and six bathrooms. It's nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac with features like several skylights, a balcony providing views of the famous Hollywood sign, a cabana, an outdoor dining terrace, and a pool.
Julia Roberts - Malibu ($9.5 Million)
Julia Roberts earned her proverbial Hollywood stripes by delivering award-winning performances in "Pretty Woman" and "Erin Brockovich." She continues displaying her acting chops in the 2022 TV series "Gaslit." Her extensive investments in properties are equally long, with addresses in New York, New Mexico, and Hawaii.
In 2020, she quietly offloaded a Malibu address she owned for $8M. While details are scant, given that she sold it off-market, the one-acre lot is located across her $9.5M Point Dume abode. She purchased the three-bedroom mansion in 2015 for $6.84M during its foreclosure process. Roberts also owns a San Francisco home that cost a reported $8.3M and a secluded ranch in New Mexico.
Michael Douglas - Irvington ($4.5 Million)
Perhaps you've seen him in the 2021 TV series "What If...?" or in earlier productions like "Basic Instinct" and "Fatal Attraction." Michael Douglas is an A-lister who also found success behind-the-scenes executive producing shows like "The Kominsky Method." With the fortunes that come with it, he purchased an Irvington mansion for his family.
Dubbed Long Meadow, he shares the residence with his wife Catherine Zeta-Jones. The grounds include a '30s Georgian-style abode with eight bedrooms. There's also a tennis court, guest cottage, a pool, and cabana on site. The couple bought the mansion for $4.5M, which was quite the deal given that the listing price was $5.95M.
Leonardo Dicaprio - Los Angeles ($5.75 Million)
"Titanic," "Inception," "The Departed," and the 2021 movie "Don't Look Up," are just a few of the critically acclaimed productions that Leonardo Dicaprio has graced. His collective films have raked in $7.2B and accorded him a huge paycheck amounting to $260M in total.
DiCaprio isn't an exception when it comes to splurging on homes, and in 2018 he bought Moby's former Los Angeles abode for $4.9M. In 2021, "The Wolf of Wallstreet" star finally decided to offload the Tudor-style residence dubbed Red Oak Manor for $5.75M. The five-bedroom spread is tucked away in Los Feliz Oaks with the Santa Monica Mountains foothills nearby.
Reese Witherspoon - Los Angeles($17.035 Million)
A true Southern Belle, Reese Witherspoon lived in Nashville, Tennessee for years before moving to sunny California. Her family formerly occupied a 10,300-square-foot spread that she bought in 2014 for $12.7M. The home exudes a beach/coastal vibe but she quietly offloaded it in 2020 for $17.035M.
Following the sale, Witherspoon moved her family into a cozy $15.9M abode located in the Mandeville Canyon. The residence comes with seven ensuite bedrooms and the 2.39-acre grounds include an infinity-edge hot tub. On the work front, Witherspoon has been keeping a busy schedule executive producing and starring in the 2019-2021 TV series "The Morning Show."
Idris Elba - London ($3.1 Million)
Born in Hackney, East London, it makes sense that Idris Elba decided to set further roots in the area with the purchase of a $3.1M residence.
