World class celebrities are known for their ostentatious and posh tastes in everything, especially when it comes to their lavish homes. While most people can only dream of a yacht cruise in the Caribbean or supercars from Lamborghini, Bugatti, Ferrari or Rolls Royce, for most celebrities these are a given.

So it’s no wonder that they get stolen away by this extravagant lifestyle and choose to live in a high-end home – or more – instead of your regular house with the usual furniture and appliances that everybody else has access to.

But as we know, there are different levels to anything, and that applies as well to celebrities and their top notch homes. Keep on reading to find out about the 15 most incredible celebrity homes.
