HOLLYWOOD’S GOLDEN ERA STARS WHO LIVE IN HOUSES MORE LUXURIOUS THAN ANY A-LIST CELEBRITY
Victoria Principal – $2.7 Million, Beverly Hills
Victoria Principal took very seriously the renovation of her house in Beverly Hills. Not only did she add water heaters and the like, but she also hired a plumber service for the pipes needed for her pool. She also had the fireplaces remodeled. Victoria, known for her role on Dallas, is also a published author, with her first work, The Body Principal, being an all-time success with 12 weeks as a bestseller. But she didn’t stop there; this entrepreneur also launched her own line of beauty products in the late ’80s (mostly for the skin) under the name, Principal Secret.
Pat Sajak – $699k, Los Angeles
No list would be complete without at least mentioning Pat Sajak. You definitely would have seen him in Wheel of Fortune, an American reality show where he made most of his fortune. However, Sajak’s house isn’t really filled with the glitz and glamour you would expect a celebrity of his status to want. Surprisingly, the worth of his first home is only a relatively low price tag of $699k. It only boasts a modest 4 beds and 2 baths -which is definitely humble for his standards. The house recently went up for sale though, so if you want to live like the successful Wheel of Fortune host, this is the chance for buying a home such as this.
Bob Barker – $138K, Los Angeles
Bob Barker is known for hosting The Price is Right for years and became a face known in every home. He just turned 95 in December 2018 and unfortunately, he has been going to medical facilities for various falls he has suffered. His last stay was in January 2019, after falling yet again. Although he has been doing therapy to strengthen his muscles and trying to preserve a steady walk, Barker has had a couple of scares. He has been living in Los Angeles for decades now. Interestingly, he had to pay only $138K for his home. Barker certainly knows when the price is in his favor!
Michael Caine – $7.45 Million, South Beach
Michael Caine’s former home in South Beach sold for $7.45M. The apartment -which reminds us of a very cool mansion- had glass walls and was definitely a tale of beauty and luxury. With four bedrooms and a direct view of the ocean, it was a perfect beach home. Caine, who won the Academy Award on two different occasions, recently released his autobiography. After 85 years in this world, he certainly has a lot to say – from his days running away from the Nazis to his success in the movie industry. With no plans yet of retiring, his latest project was the movie King of Thieves, which was released in February 2019.
Meryl Streep – $3.6 Million, LA
