Stunning Homes Of Celebrities You Won’t Believe
Viewing someone's home allows you to see deeper into who they are as a person and that goes for celebrities too. These stars didn't hold back when it came to renovating gorgeous mansions, ranches and beach houses to match their personal style. And while you might figure that Tiger Woods would have a golf course on his property, and Christina Aquilera has a recording studio in her home, some of these stars have some rare requirements in the perfect home.
Julia Roberts Loves Malibu
After selling her Greenwich Village apartment in New York, actress Julia Roberts has had more time to spend at her prime property in Malibu.

The property is huge, with a total of 6,000 square feet right next to the beach with beautiful views of the water up close.
In fact, Roberts owns two properties in the famed beach community. In 2017 she purchased a second Malibu home for $3.895 million near Point Dume.

While some might call these relics trash, Wolfe has a knack for making the old lookgood as new, sometimes even better. So it's no surprise that Wolfe, his wife, and their daughter would live in a drool-worthy home full of unique antiques and other offbeat items.
Wolfe's home may not pack the same glitz and glamour as the other mansions on our list, but don't let that fool you. The Tennessee mansion is equipped with significant upgrades and state-of-the-art appliances among other creature comforts.
