\"Michael-Jackson-second-home-2\"<\/p>\n

As pricing for Toronto real estate<\/a> continues to soar and the Vancouver housing market<\/a> is hotter than ever, a lot of Canadians are forced to take a back seat and just enjoy the view. We decided to take it a step further by curating a list of five luxurious celebrity homes that we can only dream of affording.<\/p>\n

Happy window shopping!<\/p>\n

\"Matt-Lauer-home\"<\/p>\n

JUST BOUGHT<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Matt Lauer\u2019s Hampton Compound (12 bedrooms, 12 bathrooms, 27,259 sq ft) \u2013 $36.5 MIL<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Dubbed Strongheart Manor, this 6.2-acre includes a waterfront pool, basketball court, waterfront pond with a bridge, and an \u201cisland inspired tea house.\u201d It was previously owned by Richard Gere, and was initially listed for $65 million in 2013, before Lauer snapped it up at a close-to-50% price reduction!<\/p>\n

    \"Michael-Jackson-second-home\"<\/p>\n

    FOR SALE<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Michael Jackson\u2019s Thriller Villa (7 bedrooms, 12 bathrooms, 27,259 sq ft) \u2013 $9.5 MIL<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Although it\u2019s nowhere near as famous as Neverland Ranch\u2014Michael Jackson\u2019s other home\u2014Thriller Villa, hit the market recently and sits on a gigantic 1.7-acre lot. This grand piece of property comes with all the bells and whistles you\u2019d imagine, with one jaw-dropping feature: a two-storey, 74-seat, Medieval-style chapel.<\/p>\n

      \"Kylie-Jenner-home\"<\/p>\n

      FOR SALE<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Kylie Jenner\u2019s Starter Home (5 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, 4,851 sq ft) \u2013 $3.9 MIL<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        At the tender age of 18, Kylie Jenner is already selling her first home! Her gorgeous 5,000-square-foot Calabasas home is tucked away behind a private gated entrance that leads to a courtyard with a built-in fire pit. Not too shabby for a starter home; if you have close to $4 million to blow, jump on this.<\/p>\n

        \"Shaq-home\"<\/p>\n

        JUST BOUGHT<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Shaq\u2019s Two-house Compound (8 bedrooms, 10 bathrooms, 7,400 sq ft) – $1.15 MIL<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Shaq scored an amazing deal with this $1.15-million, two-house compound. Nestled just 30 miles out of Atlanta, not only does it sit on 14 acres of land, but it includes a three-stall barn with an attached workshop, fully equipped gym, swimming pool, game room, and a 12-seat home theatre. All for just over the price of the average Toronto home<\/p>\n

          \"Taylor-Swift-apartment\"<\/p>\n

          WHOA<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Taylor Swift\u2019s West Village Townhouse (5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, 5,400 sq ft) \u2013 $38,000\/month<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            While Taytay waits for renovations on her $20-million Tribeca home to wrap up, she\u2019s shacking up at a friend\u2019s for a cool $40,000\/month in the west village. This two-storey townhouse is a stunner with a private roof top terrace, floor-to-ceiling windows, and comes fully furnished.\u00a0 Only in our wildest dreams (get it?) can we expect to afford even rental at a property like this.<\/p>\n
