George Lucas | $28 Million | Carpinteria, California
George Lucas isn’t just active as a filmmaker; he’s also a significant real estate investor. In the idyllic coastal community of Carpinteria, California, he expanded his already impressive portfolio with another luxurious residence. He paid a considerable $28 million for this exclusive property – even though it wasn’t officially for sale.
On the approximately five-acre property sits a charming Cape Cod-style house right on the water. The property is complemented by a separate guest house and a small barn near the entrance. The neighborhood is one of the most sought-after addresses for celebrities – stars like Kevin Costner, Mila Kunis, Ellen DeGeneres, and Portia De Rossi also own luxurious properties here. Lucas and his wife, Mellody Hobson, are known for their extensive real estate portfolio worth $150 to $200 million, including the famous Skywalker Ranch, which spans approximately 12,355 acres. With an estimated net worth of $7.1 billion, it’s hardly surprising.
