This palatial two-story
Mediterranean-style concrete waterfront property, built in 1991, was the
onetime residence of Beyonce and Jay-Z. It’s 7,888 square feet with 7
bedrooms, 8 full and two partial baths, a tile roof, and a pool. It’s
situated on an exclusive golf and residential island located between Bal
Harbor and Miami Beach.
Indian Creek Island is one of the wealthiest communities in America and is favored by celebrities, due in no small part to its dedicated police department including a round-the-clock marine patrol unit. Among Ms. B and Jay-Z’s current and former island neighbors are Julio Iglesias and his son Enrique, model Adriana Lima, and former Miami Dolphins coach Don Shula.

Broadcast journalist Connie Chung and
talk-show host Maury Povich put their 4-bedroom, 4-bath Greek Revival

Selling Price: $14,200,000
Heidi Klum and Seal obtained this
foreclosure in the Brentwood Country Estates community following a
bidding war last year, reportedly paying significantly more than the
$13,400,000 asking price.
The 12,300 square foot home has 9 bedrooms and 7 baths and is situated on 8.52 acres—plenty of room for the model/“Project Runway” hostess, the singer, and their four children, who also have a playhouse, because their parents are Heidi Klum and Seal.

Newlywed pop singer/ actress Hilary
Duff and her hockey player husband Mike Comrie listed their Toluca Lake
home for $7,000,000 in September. They’ve thrown in an eight-seat
electric boat to sweeten the deal, which will come in handy because the
property is located on Toluca Lake.
The 1951 Mediterranean style home features 6 bedrooms, 6-1/2 baths, a dark-wood paneled and stainless steel kitchen with skylight, plenty of terrace space with views, a pool and an outdoor fireplace.

This 1959 home, with its clean and
classic midcentury modern design, sits on a stately perch atop Laurel
Canyon, never betraying that one of the owners is known for parading
around in a neon green monokini thong bathing suit in “Borat.”
Sascha Baron Cohen and his actress wife Isla Fisher (“Wedding Crashers,” “Confessions of a Shopaholic”) listed their Los Angeles home last summer, but it’s currently off the market. Built in 1959, the house has just over a quarter acre with a lagoon-style pool and both mountain and canyon views, including the 52-acre Woodrow Wilson Preserve.

Estimated Worth: $3,750,000
This ivy-covered 4-bedroom, 6-bath
circa-1938 charmer is nestled behind a gated privacy wall in the coveted
Brentwood section of L.A. The home is so appealing that it already had
at least one famous resident, Sally Field, before Naomi Watts moved in
following her split from Heath Ledger. Naomi and her partner Liev
Schreiber resided here with their two children before making off for the
east coast to live in New York City.
The house is now off the market, but just to offer a few tidbits to appease the lookie-loos, it’s got open, exposed-beam ceilings, a modern kitchen with dark wood cabinetry, and a private, sloping yard with a pool and a canyon view.

Location: New York, New York
Rent: $45,000
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s
high-floor apartment in the West Village’s Richard Meier building offers
stunning views of the Hudson. But according to Curbed, those views are
no longer as unhindered as they used to be due to the construction of
165 Charles Street tower, so Ms. Kidman and her musical husband moved to
a penthouse in an 11th Avenue starchitect-designed building closer to
the river, where no more towers can spring up in her view.
Still, the space they left behind isn’t too shabby: the 3 bedroom, 3-1/2 bath residence features high ceilings, wide-plank walnut flooring, a chef’s kitchen, walk-in closets, two guest bedrooms with en suite bathrooms, and a south-facing terrace offering views of the Statue of Liberty and Jersey City across the river.

Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem

Asking Price: $3,150,000
Newlywed actors Penelope Cruz and
Javier Bardem have just welcomed their first child into the world, so
perhaps Penelope’s 3-bedroom, 4-bath home in the Hollywood Hills just
wasn’t big enough for their newly expanded family.
However, the single-story modern home (built in 1956) is much more spacious inside than it appears from the privacy-protecting exterior. The yard is modest in size, but the home is optimized for enjoying the outdoors, with a pool and spa and many glass doors opening out to the patio terrace area.
