Mel Gibson’s Tudor-Style Mansion in Greenwich

According to the Daily Mail, Mel Gibson’s house in Greenwich, Connecticut, just won’t sell (oh, boy, do I really want to do another post about a Greenwich house after the last one caused so much trouble?). It’s been on the market since 2007, when the price was set at $39.5 million. Two years later, it [...]

“Jon & Kate Plus 8:” Out with the Old House, In with the New

Jon and Kate Gosselin have had their hands full lately–not just with those cute kids of theirs, but with their marital troubles (they just celebrated their 10-year anniversary, but not together), an investigation into whether TLC is violating child labor laws by filming at their house, and even some allegations of pet abuse. Then I [...]

Nicolas Cage’s Garden District Mansion in New Orleans

Actor Nicolas Cage is known for his love of real estate. He always seems to be buying and selling something, somewhere. Take this Garden District mansion, for example, that he renovated and is now selling for $3.45 million in New Orleans. It’s huge–13,176 square feet–with 6 bedrooms and 5 baths.

Diane Keaton’s Spanish Colonial Revival-Style Mansion

Diane Keaton has put her Spanish Colonial Revival-style, Beverly Hills mansion on the market for about $11.9 million.  It reminded me of the beautiful photos published in Architectural Digest of her home last year. It was built in 1927 by architect Ralph Flewelling and has 7 bedrooms and 9 baths. Keaton purchased it only 2 [...]

John and Elizabeth Edwards’ Home in North Carolina

Did you happen to see Oprah’s interview with Elizabeth Edwards last week? It made me sad, but I won’t get into that here. What made me happy was getting such a great tour of their ranch near Chapel Hill, North Carolina. I had been dying to get a look inside it since seeing aerial photos [...]

Sarah Jessica Parker & Matthew Broderick’s Hamptons House

Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick are expecting! According to People magazine: “The Hollywood couple, who already have son James Wilkie, 6, announced Tuesday they’re ‘happily anticipating the birth of their twin daughters later this summer with the generous help of a surrogate. The entire family is overjoyed.’” In honor of their happy news, I [...]

Martha Stewart’s Home Office

I love getting a glimpse at how other people work, so I was excited to find this article in Vanity Fair about Martha Stewart’s home office. Even though she has corporate offices in NYC, she spends most of her time working at this small desk in the busy kitchen of her Bedford, New York, home.
Some [...]

Sally Field’s $6.95 Million Malibu Home

I love Sally Field. I love her so much I’m going to resist doing a joke about how I like her–I really like her! I got totally sucked into watching the first two seasons of “Brothers & Sisters” on DVD this month while working on this post about the sets. She plays Nora, the matriarch [...]

Got $150 Million? The Spelling Manor Can Be Yours!

Candy Spelling has put her 57,000 sq ft mansion, known as “The Manor,” on the market for $150 million. She built the unimaginably big estate with her famous television-producer husband Aaron Spelling, who died in 2006. She’s “downsizing” to a 16,000 sq ft condo in a new building called “The Century.”

In this fascinating video tour [...]

Jennifer Lopez’s 1970s Colonial on Long Island

Can you see this woman (above) living in this house (below)? Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony have reportedly purchased the white Colonial next door to their current home on the North Shore of Long Island. They paid $2.05 million for the 5-bedroom, 4 ½-bath home built in 1972, which sits on 2.24 acres.

Today we’re going [...]
