Having a luxurious spacious home is something we would all like, no doubt there. But celebrities are the ones that can afford to invest millions in real estate. As soon as they earn their first millions, they start hunting for the ideal home, which they usually replace with a better, bigger, and more expensive one in a few years. Apparently, you can get bored living in a luxurious home. British stars are certainly not far behind Hollywood celebs when it comes to owning expensive real estate. Don't believe us? Let's take a look at some of the most luxurious, expensive homes where our favorite British celebs spend their time and you'll be convinced!
Harry Styles - $8.495 Million, Hollywood Hills
[the_ad id="23538"]
Like almost every rich celeb, Harry Styles also decided to purchase a home in the Hollywood Hills area and he paid $6.87 million for it. However, Harry got bored pretty soon so he listed his home for sale trying to make a profit, asking for $8.45 million. He later lowered the price by about $500 thousand but he still hopes to make a profit, due to all the renovations that he completed. It is not uncommon for celebs to buy a house and then spend money to make it fit their exact needs, so it is only fair should list it at a higher price afterward.
Ed Sheeran - $12.5 Million, North London
It's hard to believe that Ed Sheeran was once so broke he had no place to live in because now he owns a $12 million mansion with four bedrooms. The famous singer, who lived on the streets for a while, purchased a luxurious home in North London in 2015. The rich star also owns several more houses which are reportedly located next to each other so maybe we are to expect that Ed is going to create the Sheeranville near London soon? Well, from being homeless to being a superstar, we can understand why real estate is so important to him.
Naomi Campbell - $190 Million, Turkey
While the rest of us struggle with mortgages, celebs purchase houses all the time and often even when they don't need them. For her 41st birthday, the supermodel, Naomi Campbell received a lavish gift from her boyfriend Russian billionaire Vladislav Doronin. He bought her a house shaped like the Eye of Horus. Located on a private island in Turkey, the house is completely sustainable in every way.
David Beckham - $44 Million, West London
When it comes to deluxe homes, David Beckham and his wife Victoria certainly have something to brag about. Their West London home is worth $44 million and we can sometimes see glimpses of the mansion when the former Spice Girl posts photos on Instagram. The Beckham's have got some splendid taste in real estate and if you are not following miss Beckham on socials then you should because you will understand exactly why we say that when you see her family pictures. Their house really feels like heaven even if London does not.
Simon Cowell - $24 Million, California
Simon Cowell has amassed a fortune over the years so investing $24 million in real estate is nothing for him. The judge (and creator) on American Idol and Britain’s Got Talent, who splits his time between London and the U.S., bought an 8,600 sq. ft. mansion in Malibu last year. The 6-bedroom mansion features 5 fireplaces, apparently because one does not adequately show how filthy-rich Simon is. Maybe Simon loves being surrounded by friends and he wanted to make everyone feel warm and cozy in his property. Well, we did not expect anything less from Simon.
Sienna Miller - $1.5 Million, London
Sienna Miller, who used to be engaged to Jude Law, decided to sell her London home in 2009. The beautiful home, with two bedrooms and a Turkish bath as well as a sauna, was listed for $1.5 million. The actress, model, and fashion designer decided to move to New York and leave rainy London behind. We are pretty sure that her new real estate acquisition is not going to be far from her british based one. Sienna is known for her good taste and she will certain choose her headquarters in the U.S wisely and elegantly.
Emilia Clarke - $4.64 Million, Venice, California
Another actress from Game of Thrones, Emilia Clarke, invested about $4.64 million in a house in Venice area in California. Who’s to blame her? Venice is just an extraordinary area to live in. The house features two bedrooms and modern architecture so it was money well spent for our beloved actress. However, the actress recently offered the house as a rental for an estimated sum of $25,000 per month. This isn't the first time she has done it as she has also rented her house in May last year. Maybe she has set eyes in another property.
Matt Smith - $1.09 Million, North London
Matt Smith became famous thanks to his role in Doctor Who and it seems that he has invested part of his earnings into real estate. Well, it is a great way to keep your money safe and sound and way more mature than partying or getting into nasty habits. Matt bought a house in North London which reportedly cost $1.09 million, eight years ago. We bet he would make a great profit if he decided to sell it now but we do not know if he is willing to leave his headquarters for another roof just yet!
Louis Tomlinson - $7.3 Million, Hollywood Hills
Louis Tomlinson from the popular band One Direction now calls the United States his home just like many member of the band do. Harry Styles is already on our list, too. The star purchased a house in Hollywood Hills for $7.3 million in 2016. The four-bedroom deluxe house has a home theatre, a guest house, and a garage for four cars. There are also six baths! Either Louis is planning on having a huge family or he just wants to be the best host to his friends and other visitors!
Robert Pattinson - $2.1 Million - Hollywood Hills
Another British actor who decided to settle in the United States, Twilight star, Robert Pattinson, who became famous as Edward Cullen from the vampire franchise, bought a luxurious house in Hollywood Hills in 2014. We had no doubt Robert would have his eyes set for the prestigious region. Robert paid about $2.1 million for this remarkable property which isn't really much, compared to what other celebs pay. Maybe he has plans of renovating it in order to fit his needs to the point and decided not to spend a huge amount for the purchase alone.
Ozzy Osbourne - 11.5 million, Los Angeles
After the reality TV show The Osbournes ended in 2005 and the whole family became famous, the Osbournes decided to purchase a new home located in Hidden Hills, LA. Ozzy and Sharon bought the house in 2007 but they listed it for sale in 2011. It was first listed for about $12.999 million but the price reportedly dropped over the next couple of years. They also offered to rent it for $50K a month, before Jessica Simpson bought the house for $11.5 million in 2013.
Brian May - Undisclosed, Surrey, England
The Queen musician Brian May has acquired quite a fortune during his long career and naturally, he can afford to live where he pleases without worrying about his credit score dropping. And the star chose to settle down in Surrey, England, where he bought a mansion. But unlike other celebs who buy and sell real estate quickly, Brian has owned this place for a long time.
Idris Elba - $3.47 Million, East London
Idris Elba, who won a Golden Globe for his role in Luther, owns a beautiful home in East London. Recently, Elba has decided to convert his basement into a film and music studio. The British star clearly has enough money in his bank account to do whatever he wants with the place but the residents of his street didn't really like this decision...
Benedict Cumberbatch - $15 Million estimated, Hidden Hills
The Sherlock Holmes star Benedict Cumberbatch was house-hunting in California and when he saw this $15 million Hidden Hills mansion, he just couldn't resist it. The actor who married opera director Sophie Hunter settled in this large seven bedroom property in 2015. One thing is certain, he didn't need to apply for a mortgage since he is filthy rich. The Tuscan-style villa is truly stunning and will provide the couple the privacy they need.
Cheryl Cole – Approximately $27K A Month, Hertfordshire
Cheryl announced that she was leaving her home in Hertfordshire to live with her bae from One Direction, Liam Payne. She decided to put her home on the rental market for about $27K a month. Later that year, she listed the property for sale for $$6.5 million. The house is very modern and features porcelain floors, recessed lighting, and a glazed entrance. However, things did not go as Cheryl planned and we wonder if she is already house-hunting and what her next acquisition when it comes to real estate will be.
Keira Knightley - $6 Million, New York
The famous actress from Pirates of the Caribbean, Keira Knightley, has real estate in the United States. Actually, had, because the actress sold her luxurious New York apartment for $6 million last year. That sounds like a great amount of profit for Keira. We are not really sure why anyone would want to leave this 3-bedroom heaven in the middle of NYC but that's the thing with celebs, they get easily bored. Or it may be that Keira house found a true real estate miracle someplace else. If that is the case, then we will definitely know soon!
Jude Law - $6.8 Million, London
Actor Jude Law owned a beautiful house in the Highgate neighborhood. In 2013, he listed the house for sale, with an asking price of $6.8 million. It's a four bedroom house which, although looks quite modest from the outside, is pretty luxurious on the inside. A rather great strategy to hide affluence! Smart guy, Jude! This was the place where he and his girlfriend, Sienna Miller, settled in 2010, but the star decided to go apartment-hunting in New York City just like his ex did. Is NY the to-go place for recently separated celebs?
Adele - $9.5 Million, Beverly Hills
Singer Adele also has some expensive real estate to boast of and this one is located in Beverly Hills (where else?). One of the most celebrated singers of our time, that has won many Grammy awards and is widely celebrated around the world, decided to spend some money in the U.S for the times her professional duties keep her there. She bought a $9.5 million house in Beverly Hills which features a large, fully-equipped kitchen and four luxurious bedrooms. Anyone would want to cook in such a kitchen!
Paul McCartney - $15.5 Million, NYC
If you want to purchase real estate in Fifth Avenue then prepare to pay tens of millions for it. The street where rent is impossibly expensive is exactly where the living legend Paul McCartney and his wife bought a duplex penthouse. The couple paid $15.5 million for this amazing 5-bedroom haven with a view of Central Park. If Paul ever declares bankruptcy, which he won't as he's filthy rich, he could just sell this penthouse and have enough money to live in luxury for the rest of his life.
Anthony Hopkins - $18.6 Million, Malibu
Sir Anthony Hopkins is an Academy Award-winner and one of the greatest actors ever (and this is a statement known to be true all over the world). Naturally, a star like this must live in a deluxe house in an expensive area taking into account his earnings over his long and successful career. In the 2000s, Anthony bought a house valued at $18.6 million in Malibu, CA. As the great enjoy enjoys painting, there, he has plenty of space in the garden to paint whenever he wants. Who would not be inspired by such beauty?
Martin Freeman - $1.3 Million, London
Sherlock Holmes star, Martin Freeman split with his partner and co-star Amanda Abbington which broke the hearts of many fans. The couple lived together in a house reportedly worth $1.3 million before they announced their separation. We do not really know if one of them is to keep their deluxe house or if they will decide to list it and go apartment hunting. It's strange to think that Amanda declared bankruptcy in 2013 while Martin, who was still with her at the time, was so rich but maybe the couple dealt with their finances separately. Who knows?
Ryan Giggs - $2.68 Million, Salford
The Welsh soccer coach and former player Ryan Giggs used to live in this lovely mansion in Salford before he and his wife split. Giggs reportedly paid $2.68 million for the property in 2004 but he moved out of it when he and his wife announced their divorce. It is believed that Giggs spent millions on renovating the home and building in an indoor pool, a sauna and many other amenities. It is always sad when a couple gets separated and apart from all the pain inside they have to deal with the split of their finances as well.
Gareth Bale - $14K Per Month, Spain
The Welsh soccer star Gareth Bale enjoys all the luxury and comfort he needs in an exclusive residential area in Spain. Bale decided to be closer to Madrid for work since he is included in the roster of Real Madrid, so he rented a property that previously belonged to the former Real Madrid star Ricardo Kaka, located in the La Finca region. The house has an indoor pool, of course, as well as four bathrooms and a garage designed for 6 cars. It seems that 2018 was Bale’s year since he was awarded both the Golden Ball as well as the Real Madrid Player of the Month for August.
Chris Martin - $14 Million, Malibu
Chris Martin, the singer from Coldplay, and his now ex-wife, Gwyneth Paltrow, shocked the public when they announced their divorce in 2014 after ten years of being together. The couple purchased this house in Malibu before they split so that Chris could be near the kids, according to the sources. It is estimated that the former couple paid around $14 million for the beachside property where several famous actresses have already been seen since the star's separation from Gwyneth. Well, Chris is still fairly young and this house looks too amazing to be left empty.
Wayne Rooney - $7 Million, Barbados
Wayne Rooney and his wife Coleen own a mansion in Barbados where despite having a villa, the family prefers to vacation in a luxury hotel (rich folks can be weird). But last year, Wayne put their Caribbean home on the rental market for about $35K/week. Who knows, maybe the famous soccer player thought it would be a good idea for the villa to pay the costs of their hotel! The estimated price of the mansion, which has a master bedroom with a view of the sea, is $7 million.
Mick Jagger - $30K/week During High Season, Mustique
The legendary singer owns a beachfront compound located on a private island in the West Indies. As of 2016, his Mystique property is available for a luxury stay, for those who can afford it, of course. A week in this beautiful home will cost you up to $30K which for many of us would mean declaring bankruptcy right after the vacation is over. But it's Mick Jagger's house and it has a pool so it's kinda worth it!
J.K. Rowling - $3.1 Million, Edinburgh
The richest writer in the world and author of the Harry Potter books owns a beautiful estate in Edinburgh. The British novelist with a net worth slightly below $1 billion paid about $3.1 million for this home, located in a secluded area of the city far from the prying eyes of the paparazzi. The two-floor house has everything the writer needs or anyone, really!
Tony Blair - Around $33 Million, London
When it comes to luxurious London properties, the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Tony Blair, is the proud owner of one. Actually, Tony owns many estates located both in and out of London. His empire is estimated to be worth about $33 million, which is quite impressive we must say. Being a politician certainly pays off (but one has to wonder, should it?).
Tom Daley - $1.53 Million, London
Another British celeb, the famous diver Tom Daley, owned a luxurious apartment near London Bridge but he listed it for sale recently. After he moved into a beautiful, new and spacious apartment with his husband last year, he decided to sell the old one for about $1.53 million. Their new home features exposed bricks and uneven raw finishes, just like Daley's husband wanted.
Christian Bale - $8.8 Million, Brentwood Park
Celebs like having a private property where they can be at peace far away from the paparazzi and we don’t really blame them. That is why Christian Bale bought a house in Brentwood Park for $8.8 million. The mansion that sits on 36 acres is set far back from the road and is secluded enough for this famous actor.
Michael Caine - $7.45 Million, Miami Beach, Florida
Sir Michael Caine had owned a deluxe condo in Miami Beach for about 10 years before he decided to sell it. The actor actually managed to make a profit by selling the luxury condo for $7.45 million even though he initially asked for $8.7 million in 2017. Besides the breathtaking view, the condo features 4 bedrooms and we would love to have it.
Daniel Radcliffe - $13.95 Million, Empire Property
If he didn’t have his fortune made thanks to Harry Potter movies, the British actor could live comfortably off his rental income as he owns several properties both in the U.S. as well as back home in England. In 2009, he bought his third property in New York and now his real estate is worth more than $13 million.
Emma Watson - Price Undisclosed, Manhattan
Since she is making millions ever since she was a kid just like her co-star Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson can buy any property she wants. She decided to move to New York a few years ago so naturally, she had to purchase an expensive luxury apartment. While the price of her two-bathroom Manhattan apartment is not known, considering her net worth, we can only assume that it wasn't cheap.
Elizabeth Hurley - $12.25 Million, Cotswolds
When she decided to live in the countryside, the British actress Elizabeth Hurley bought herself a gorgeous estate near the Cotswold town of Barnsley. But then, as usual with celebs, the famous actress wanted a change so she sold her property for $12.25 million. She also made a huge profit selling this nine-bedroom estate and she probably already has her eyes set on something else.
Hugh Grant - $4.76 Million, South Kensington
When it comes to real estate investment, it is as if all the celebs compete with each other. British actor Hugh Grant used to own a spectacular penthouse with a breathtaking view in South Kensington. But he didn't keep his bachelor pad for long and he sold it for $4.76 million. We bet he is now onto something even more lavish.
Orlando Bloom - $7 Million, Beverly Hills
Orlando Bloom, the actor from The Lord of the Rings and the Pirates of the Caribbean, has a specific taste when it comes to real estate. And it is a great one. He purchased a minimalist pavilion last year located in Beverly Hills. The actor paid about $7 million for this amazing house with a pool and everything else that he needs.
Andy Murray - $4 Million, Surrey
Professional tennis player Andy Murray bought a beautiful mansion located in Surrey, which cost about $4 million. But that is not all. The tennis star actually asked permission to demolish the old house and build a new one in its place with a swimming pool, a gym, sauna and anything else he wanted. What's interesting is that Andy will allow a protected species of bats to roost in the loft of his new house!
Eric Clapton - $3.5 Million, France
Who wouldn't love to have a house in the deepest Provence in France? The legendary British musician Eric Clapton certainly wanted one, so he bought a spacious home in the south of France that looks absolutely amazing. However, the house has been on the market for a while and the asking price is close to $3.5 million. Are you up for it?
Sting - Undisclosed, England
The iconic singer Sting and his wife, actress Trudie Styler, enjoy a more traditional home reportedly built after 1700 in England. After renovating their precious home, the couple can now enjoy the privacy and the comfort of it, far from the public eye just like they both wanted. We can only imagine how much they invested in remodeling the house!
Seal - $13 Million, Brentwood
Seal and his wife Heidi Klum decided to invest in a classy mansion in Brentwood, California in 2010, but alas they didn't know at the time that they would soon divide up their real estate properties in the divorce settlement that followed. The eight-bedroom house was purchased for a hefty $13.4 million which was a fair deal, all things considered. Too bad this wasn't meant to be their family's home.
Rita Ora - $1.7 Million, North London

With four bedrooms and seven bathrooms, the house is pretty spacious so anyone who buys it will have plenty of room to enjoy.
Simon Pegg - $13.5K Per Month, Los Angeles
The famous Star Trek actor Simon Pegg prefers to rent real estate rather than buying it. He certainly could afford to purchase a home but the British actor rents a cozy and comfy apartment in Los Angeles for $13.5K/month. The place is lovely, with old-fashioned wood ceilings and we would certainly love to live in a place like this!
Catherine Zeta-Jones - $8.1 Million, Bedford
The famous Hollywood couple, actors Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas have plenty of money together and so they ought to live in a deluxe home.

Sean Bean - $8.123 Million, Totteridge
The British actor from Game of Thrones Sean Bean bought a house in Totteridge a while ago when he was still married to Abigail Cruttenden. The star, who has married four times so far, listed his house for sale this year and the asking price is $8.123 million.

Robbie Williams - $23 Million, West London
After a lot of searching, Robbie Williams finally found a perfect home in the Holland Park area which boasts 46 bedrooms! No, this is not a typo!

Gary Barlow - $10.24 Million, Cuddington
Take That star Gary Barlow purchased a beautiful estate in Cuddington area in 1995 but decided to sell it in 2005, for about $6.3 million.

In 2015, the new owners of Delamere Manor opened the doors of the house to those who wanted to rent it for special occasions.
Lily Allen - $5.69 Million, Cotswolds
Celebs change houses very quickly and usually, they sell their properties for a huge profit. Singer Lily Allen used to own a beautiful old Cotswold mansion which she listed for sale in 2016 for $5.69 million. There have been rumors that she was selling the house to pay a tax bill but nothing has been confirmed! We hope she just found a better one.
Ringo Starr - about $18 Million, Surrey
With earnings as high as Ringo Starr's, you could live in a palace, which the drummer from The Beatles actually did for quite some time. He bought a beautiful estate back in 1999 for about $2 million but sold it for a huge profit in 2015. He sold the house for more than $18 million, 900% up from what he paid for it!
Zayn Malik - $3 Million, London
Zayn Malik, the One Direction star, is no ordinary teenager, as he can afford to buy real estate wherever he pleases with no worries and mortgages.

Declan Donnelly - $2.68 Million, London
The popular TV presenter Declan Donnelly is very close to his professional partner, Ant McPartlin, who had to check in to a rehab to deal with his drug prescription and alcohol problem. It's not a surprise then that they bought matching houses in the same street in London. After Ant moved to a new home with his wife, Dec decided to buy a house near his colleague, demolish it, and build a new one that looks like Ant's house! The estimated price he paid for the house is $2.68 million but the building work probably cost much more.
Russell Brand - $3.53 Million, London

Noel Gallagher - $15.62 Million, London

However, in 2016, he decided to sell the spacious house located next to the Regent’s Canal in London.

Kit Harington - $2.46 Million, East Anglia
The beloved actors from Game of Thrones Kit Harington and his girlfriend Rose Leslie wanted to get away from the noisy city and into the countryside. They bought a beautiful house in East Anglia area and paid approximately $2.46 million. For rich celebs such as these two, a great home insurance was probably included.

Ricky Gervais - $15.26 Million, North London
The beloved comedian Ricky Gervais didn't need a home loan to purchase a house, even though the house was actually an eight-bedroom, $15-million worth mansion. He bought the house in 2016 with his wife, Jane Fallon, right after the couple sold their former property in London. The previous home was much smaller, with only 4 bedrooms so this one was a huge upgrade.

The gorgeous actor better known as Mr.Gray from Fifty Shades of Gray owns real estate too, just like any celeb with millions in his bank account.

Prince Harry and his future bride, actress Meghan Markle, will live in this beautiful, small yet luxurious Nottingham Cottage, on the grounds of Kensington Palace.

Kate Moss - $10.8 Million, London
Supermodel Kate Moss may have had some drug and alcohol issues but she proved that she can do so much more when she wants. A few years ago, Kate tried herself as an interior designer and she decorated a mansion in England. When it came to her own home, Kate bought a mansion in London for about $10.8 million but she listed it for sale in 2011. Perhaps the insurance for this 4,640 square feet property was too high or she simply wanted to get rid of the house and have a fresh start.
Pierce Brosnan - $2.6 Million, Malibu
When a fire ignited in Pierce Brosnan's beach house in Malibu, the estimated damage was about $1 million but possibly more. The famous actor had owned the house for a decade before he sold it for $2.82 million. The beautiful home features custom tile work and a steam shower as well as five fireplaces. But after that fire a few years ago, whoever moves in there must have a really good home insurance though.

The gorgeous actress who played Lady Mary Crawley in Downton Abbey likely bought a French-style house located in North Ranch.
