Britney Spears Homes
The wheeling and dealing pop princess Britney Spears, who ascended
to stardom in 1999, has had multiple homes in California plus
one in New York City.
Britney Spears Kentwood, Louisiana Home
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA
In 1999 at age 18, Britney purchased a custom-built home for
her mother outside her hometown of Kentwood, Louisiana. When visiting
her family, Britney stays at this brick home named "Serenity."
No purchase price or details are available.
HOLLYWOOD HILLS, LOS ANGELES
Purchasing her star-worthy estate in 2001, the two-parcel property
is at the end of a long drive in a gated community full of celebrities.
Britney paid $2.975 million for this home selling it in 2003 for
$3.850 million.
NEW YORK CITY
Three successful albums later in 2002, Britney opened a restaurant
and purchased a penthouse in the storied Silk building previously
owned by Keith Richards of Rolling Stones. This was short-lived
and she listed it for $6 million, selling it for $4 million in
2006.
Britney Spears Malibu Home
MALIBU, CALIFORNIA
Britney married Kevin Federline in 2004, selling her house in
Hollywood Hills. She purchased a 1.53-acre lot for $13.5 million.
The 9130-square foot home is in a luxury gated community in the
Serra Retreat neighborhood. The mansion was updated adding a recording
studio and a dance and work-out studio. Two years and two kids
later, Britney and Kevin divorced in late 2006. The house was
on the market again for $13.5 million.
BEVERLY HILLS
This was a rough year for Britney divorcing Kevin Federline.
In 2007, she was in child custody battles and was attempting a
come-back tour, running in and out of rehab. On impulse, she picked
up a fully-furnished Mediterranean villa off Mulholland Drive
in Beverly Hills for $6.750 million. She tried to sell the mansion
in 2008 and 2010, but didn't find a buyer. It's currently off
the market. The Summit Circle estate has 5 bedrooms, a master
suite with his/her baths, fireplace, and a maid's quarters. The
backyard has a spa, pool, playing area for the kids, and a three-car
garage.
A house with that kind of celebrity status was worth asking $4.235
million. But, with a price tag of $2.995 million, the property
went to probate for sale. Turns out, however, that a bidding war
wasn't necessary to offload the 15,930-square foot home, since
an eager anonymous buyer placed an offer that was more than $1.25
million over the asking price.

CALABASAS, CALIFORNIA
After her emotional breakdown in late 2008, Britney leased a
one-acre estate, Chateau Suenos, for almost two years during 2009.
It is a large $8.9 million hilltop estate in the exclusive Calabasas
area of Los Angeles.
She spent almost $700,000 in upgrades to prepare for her comeback.
HIDDEN HILLS, CALIFORNIA
It is said that Britney bought this architecturally beautiful
Tudor-style house listed at one time for $18.9 million, reduced
to $12.9 million. There is some question that she might be leasing
this mansion for $25,000 each month. Her neighbors are Melissa
Etheridge, Lisa Marie Presley, the Osbournes, and Jennifer Lopez.
Being fairly large having 9107 square feet, this luxurious house
comes with 10 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms. There are two staff apartments;
private guest quarters; an elegant and huge ballroom; wine cellar;
game rooms; chef's kitchen with granite countertops and hardwood
floors; multiple hot tubs; swimming pool with grotto; tennis court;
beamed mahogany ceilings; fireplaces; beautiful entrance, gardens,
and foyer. The house is very formal with classical wood beams,
and lighting, using strong colors of the period. The mansion is
very elegant with crystal chandeliers. The office is a bit on
the masculine side yet with classic elegance.

Other features include a ballroom with its own bar and pool table;
authentic wood paneling; marble floors; leaded windows; French
doors; cathedral ceilings; and crystal wall sconces with shades.
The house is surrounded by mature trees, having genuine curb
appeal. A large sunken tennis court, a free form pond surrounded
by palm trees, and flowers and bushes are additional outdoor charms.
Plus, there is an outdoor spa in a cave. The attraction to this
area is that it is very private and secluded, having its own community
supermarkets, Starbucks, and restaurants, away from Paparazzi.
THOUSAND OAKS, CALIFORNIA
The Mediterranean-style home about 40 miles from downtown Los
Angeles, is in the exclusive gated community of Sherwood Country
Club, built in 2010. It spans 8456 square feet of beautiful living
space, purchased in 2012.
This home has 5 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, with plenty of space for
Britney's two young boys and fiancé Jason Trawick. Stunning
features are an infinity pool, home theater, library and a wine
room, luxury and privacy, These digs have panoramic views of the
golf course, and it has an outdoor kitchen and cabana with views
of the Santa Monica mountains.

The first two floors offer old country charm with stylish wood
structures throughout. The gourmet kitchen comes with upscale
amenities, stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops.
The living and family rooms are large with a wood paneled library.
This property was listed at $8.5 million in August 2012, and
the final purchase price is unavailable, since realtors try to
keep the purchase price secret for celebs.
