Amazing Houses Owned By Rich Celebrities
Jimmy Carter – Georgia
Unlike his successors and predecessors, President Jimmy Carter decided to make the ranch he built in the 60s as his primary residence. Away from the urban life, it seems to be the perfect place for post-retirement living. You might be surprised to find out that his Georgia ranch currently values at $167,000, which is far less than many luxury presidential cars.
The two-bedroom house has a modest interior with sky-blue walls and some lovingly collected paintings for decor. Carter has given numerous interviews at his residence post-retirement from the land’s highest office, so chances are you may have already glimpsed his charming abode on TV.
Kamala Harris – Los Angeles
Vice President Kamala Harris is undoubtedly among the most brilliant women on the planet, but not many of you might know that she boasts a mini real estate empire of her own. However, her Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles remains her personal favorite. Plus, Harris is neighbors with some of America’s biggest celebrities, including LeBron James and Gwyneth Paltrow.
The $5 million luxury mention is near the famous Getty Center and features four bedrooms and a swimming pool. But until she remains in the top office, Harris is likely to make Blair House her temporary residence in the national capital.
Melania Trump – Palm Beach
Who in their right mind does not know the fashion icon, Melania Trump? Not only is she best known as the former US First Lady, but she also made her mark in the modeling business. Although she owns numerous properties globally, Melania likes to call resplendent 126 room residence in Mar-a-Lago as her second home. You might not know, but she exchanged her vows at the same place; maybe that is why she has a special connection with the stunning estate.
In 1927, renowned socialite Marjorie Merriweather Post built this property that features carved stones, eclectic antiques, rare marbles, and gold leaf detailing – a fitting home for Melania indeed.
Mitt Romney – Utah
Famous for his outstanding political style, Mitt Romney is not new to living a luxury lifestyle. Well, that is what looks like after seeing his $5 million mountain lodge-style property. Ideally located in a community of a total of twelve homes, the massive mansion spans 1,300 square feet and features six bedrooms. Apart from that, the gorgeous house’s interior is a mix of Romney’s and his wife’s favorite art and furniture.
Additionally, the couple has also installed a pond garden at their Deer Valley residence and spent millions on a renovation, especially redoing their breathtaking kitchen. The Romneys undoubtedly have the perfect place already set up for a cozy retirement.
Johnny Mathis – Hollywood Hills
Johnny Mathis, a Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter, lived in this house for 56 years. Unfortunately, the Hollywood Hills home got engulfed by fire in November 2015. The now 85-year-old music legend just came back from Cleveland after performing when he found out what happened to his beloved residence.
Apparently, the destructive flames started in a room containing aquariums and other electrical equipment. And although some of the belongings got salvaged by firefighters, the Rocket 88 crooner’s prized piano was unredeemable. With $400 million as a fortune today, we don’t think Mathis, dubbed as The Voice of Romance, found it hard to find another home, though.
