Some of the amenities you can expect to find on the property include a pool cabana, a library, a gym, a card room, and a guest apartment atop the garage.

Lionel Richie dropped $6 million on this Italian Renaissance Revival Palace in 1999. The home, which was built in 1929, overlooks the Los Angeles Country Club. After significant renovations and a total redesign, Lionel says the biggest compliment one can give him is “I could stay here for awhile.” The property is now estimated to be worth nearly $25 million. Some notable features to the home include a stone pool house, a swimming pool (of course), and several limestone terraces that overlook the lush magnolia trees and cypress that surround the property.

This was the last home of Michael Jackson before his death, in his bedroom here, in June 2009. Michael was renting this French Chateau-style property for a whopping $100,000/month and used it as the launch pad of what would have been his final tour, titled This Is It. After Michael’s death, the owners of the home sued a star map vendor who set up just outside the gate for turning off potential buyers. She was ultimately forced to move across the street, which is still 20 feet from the gate. The home was built in 2002 by Mohammed Hadid, father of Gigi and Bella Hadid. Tall trees stand guard at the entrance and the vines that grow along the towering white walls seem to almost form a protective barrier for the outer exterior of the first floor. Amenities include a spa, a gym, a guest house, and a theater.

Jennifer Aniston picked up this hilltop oasis in January 2012 for $21 million. She enlisted Stephen Shadley to redesign the mid-century modern space. Jennifer is a fan of “Zen” and “Bali” styles but didn’t want a themed home, so Stephen designed the home with those inspirations. She famously used the mansion just down the cliff as a holding area for her secret wedding to Justin Theroux and completely threw off the paparazzi when it was revealed she had a huge at-home wedding here. The home features a swimming pool and nearby sitting area reminiscent of a luxury spa, glass sliders that make it easy for outdoor access, a koi pond, a swimming pool, solar panels, a wine room, a game room, a pizza oven in the kitchen, and a private garden that can only be accessed through the master suite. Ensuring that the redesign was done in the most eco-friendly way possible, Aniston only used wood from fallen trees for the additions to the home.
