Rachel Maddows – $605K, Massachusetts
Rachel Maddow purchased the pre-civil war farmhouse back in 2013 for just $605,000. The 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom colonial-style cabin was built in 1869 and stood on an 11.86-acre lot. It had a fireplace and an attached garage, but Rachel got the aid of architect Nicole Migeon. It was to build a new bathhouse at the back of the property to bring in a hot tub and a second bathroom. They could have the room attached to the house, but Maddow decided she didn’t want to alter the original house arrangement.
Diana Ross – $39.5 Million, Connecticut
Diana Ross lived in an enclosed home tucked away in a private community a few minutes away from downtown Greenwich in Connecticut. There were terraces in the 12,562 square-foot mansion that lead to large lawns in each room. The living room had an 18th-century paneling and a spiral staircase where Rembrandts adorned the walls. The gardens were equipped with a tennis court, a spa, and two carriage houses.
