The inside is laden with 18th-Century furniture, marble, high-ceiling columns, and embroidered wall hangings. The best way to describe it would be Italian interior design
2.Eddie Murphy’s Home in Hollywood Hills
Worth a large sum of $85 million, this sprawling is definitely more than one person could bargain for. It covers 16 acres; the home comes with horse stables, swimming pools, and tennis courts that add up in value over time, which is no laughing matter.

The music entertainers’ home is actually made of six different structures, one of them being the 30,000-square-foot main house.

Not too shabby for a guy who raps, sells clothes, markets cologne, has restaurants, and owns a basketball team.

10.Rihanna’s $22-Million Home in Barbados
A native of Barbados, Rihanna decided to plant her roots here with this beautiful home that would make anyone jealous. Bearing the address “One Sandy Lane,” this five-bedroom home has pools, a golf course, tennis courts, docks for boats, a gym, and access to the beach. Who wouldn’t want to spend their hours here, soaking in the sun with a margarita in their hand? Especially with the ultimate bad girl Riri.
11.Alex Rodriguez’s House in Coral Gables
Also known as A-Rod, this famous baseball player wanted a home where he could get away from the world and have a quiet place to spend time with his daughters. It took a year to build this 11,000 square-foot home, where Rodriguez wanted a single floor to make it easier to connect the interior with the outdoors.
12.Gwen Stefani’s Mansion in Hollywood Hills

This 10,000-square-foot home was custom built for Tiger Woods and his then-wife, Elin. It’s situated on Jupiter Island in Florida, where it has marvelous views of the ocean. The acreage has four putting greens, a putting studio, and a running track, which only makes sense for this professional golfer.

15.Bill Gates’ Washington Estate
His lakefront estate encompasses 66,000 square feet. It’s a wonder the inventor of the internet doesn’t get lost in his own home daily. It has seven bedrooms and 24 (yes, 24!) bathrooms, six kitchens, and a library that eats up about 2,100 of those square feet. Other rooms include a human-made stream filled with salmon and trout for fishing, a steam room, his and her locker rooms, indoor/outdoor pool, and a sauna. It’s no wonder this home is valued at about $125 million, which is probably just one day’s work to this billionaire genius.
