4 Features of the Most Expensive Celebrity Homes — and How To Replicate Them in Your Home

Celebrities often hire a fleet of interior designers, architects and landscapers to make their homes look their best. But just because you’re not wealthy or a celebrity doesn’t mean your home can’t look amazing. A lot of the bells and whistles you’ll find in celebrity homes can be dialed down to match a normal budget. These luxe features won’t cost a million bucks, because you can replicate them in your own home and with affordable products that can get you part of the way there.

Resort-Style Backyards

Russell Wilson and singer Ciara’s $54.9 million Santa Fe property features a football field, a swimming pool with waterfalls, several patios and lounge spaces warmed by fire pits, according to Architectural Digest.

Your home might not have enough acreage for a football field or multiple patios, but you can still recreate a dialed-down version in your backyard. As a foundation, aim for ambiance, comfort and a good layout. Try DIYing a patio revamp or landscaping to set the stage for touches like fire pits, string lighting and seating areas.

Specialized Hobby and Entertainment Rooms

Per Architectural Digest, Mark Wahlberg’s $37 million Florida mansion includes a game room, a hidden cigar lounge and a movie theater. If that’s out of your budget, you could create something similar in your home by building out a space for the hobbies and entertainment you enjoy.

Prefer watching movies on the big screen? Create your own in-home screening room with a retractable screen and an affordable projector. If you can’t dedicate an entire room to your preferred hobby, transform a smaller space like a spare closet or unused corner of your room into a cozy space for games, books or crafting.

Smart Home Technology

Smart home technology makes you feel like a celebrity with your own personal assistant taking care of all the little things. With the right smart tools, you can have the curtains opened for you each morning, turn on the lights without lifting a finger and automate climate control throughout your home.

For example, the Ryse Smart Curtain uses a mobile app to open your curtains on a set schedule or through voice control. You could also link smart plugs or lighting to a smart home device like Alexa, Google Home or Apple HomeKit to automate your mood lighting. And Google’s Nest thermostat connects to your smart home devices and apps so you can set the temp from anywhere.

Curated Landscapes and Greenery

Adam Levine recently sold a $60 million home in Montecito that featured perfectly manicured landscaping and a plant-covered sunroom, according to Architectural Digest. A little curb appeal goes a long way. If you want your home to look like a celebrity lives there, adding plants, window planters or other greenery helps it look lush and welcoming.

It can be as small as refreshing the mulch around trees and shrubs or trimming back unruly branches. You could also add touches of greenery around your home with plants if you’re adept at caring for them. This quickly livens up your space and makes it feel more homey.
