The place you live is your sanctuary and you naturally do whatever it takes to ensure that your home reflects your nature and lifestyle and in turn offers the kind of ambience you're comfortable with. Well, that's exactly what celebrities do, albeit with big bucks involved. Many of them go the whole hog to create cribs that are less homes and more mansions capable of housing large parties of guests and still ensuring everyone's privacy.
Most celebrity homes are located on estates that span many acres and include homes that take up many thousands of sqft. There are those who've used their money to create artistic and appealing homes but there are also those who spend millions and end up with homes that look the worse for all that investment. Naturally, we'll focus only on the best homes.
Oprah Winfrey's Oprah Hearst Castle comes right at the top of the heap with its vast acreage (42 acres) and 23,000sqft home. Situated in California's Santa Barbara, the castle contains six bedrooms, ten fireplaces, fourteen bathrooms and a theater. The estate has been beautified by a man-made lake that's now home to several types of rare fish. There's also the tasteful, hand-laid driveway that spans a quarter of a mile and is made up of Montecito sandstone bricks.
The Tudor-style manor that Goldie Hawn and her husband Kurt Russell owned temporarily in Vancouver, Canada is next on this list. The famous couple shifted in to be close to their son who was making an entry into the world of professional hockey. The massive home came with eleven fireplaces, an entrance hall with two dens, a kitchen, a fireplace, a yard and a coach house, a huge living space for formal occasions, a dining room, a dressing room with the master suite, a conservatory, a gym, a theater and five bedrooms.
Let's now head to Laglio in Italy, the small town where George Clooney owns a stunning villa with twenty-five rooms, a pool, and a garage large enough to house Clooney's many motorbikes. He claims to love the villa a lot spending as much of his free time there entertaining the likes of Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas. The villa has also been used to film a few scenes for Ocean's Twelve.
Jerry Seinfeld's home since 2000, is also one we ought not to end this article without mentioning. Purchased by Seinfeld from Billy Joel, this mansion is situated in New York's East Hampton. Seinfeld paid a whopping $32 million for this Tudor mansion built on the waterfront. Set on 14 acres, the home consists of three buildings that together contain 24 rooms, 8 baths (and an additional 5 half-baths), pools both indoors and outdoors, a bowling alley, a gym, a tennis court, a music room, a cottage for guests, a wine cellar and a smoking bar.
