Rihanna – $13.8 Million, Beverly Hills

Living in luxurious spaces is something many of us would love to achieve, and some, like Rihanna, are already living the dream if her mansion is anything to go by. Located in the posh area of Beverly Hills, where she lives among fellow celebrities, the abode is a piece of architectural beauty, with a lavish interior and modern furnishings.

The abode is quite expansive, with five bedrooms, all en-suite, seven bathrooms, a chef’s kitchen fitted with marble islands, a separate breakfast room, and an informal living area that opens to the outdoor space. When the songstress has visitors over, they can stay at the guesthouse while enjoying a dip in the swimming pool or relax in the spa.
