It is not unusual for an A-list star to have an extravagant abode, but some celebrities have taken their idea of a dream home to a whole new level. 

From a private water park to a blood-coloured pool, these A-list homes prove money really can buy just about anything. 

Join HELLO! as we explore the most bizarre and spectacular properties ever built by the stars.

Rather than residing in a simple million-dollar mansion, Johnny Depp decided to purchase an entire French village for his family to live in, featuring everything from a skate park to a Pirates of the Caribbean-themed wine cellar.

The father of two bought the 37-acre estate near Saint Tropez in 2001, and poured millions of dollars into renovating the sprawling home. Johnny's hideaway featured 15 bedrooms, 14 bathrooms, two swimming pools, a restaurant with a professional kitchen, and a former church that was converted into a guest house.

Three years after Johnny and his longtime partner, Vanessa Paradis, split in 2012, the actor put the village estate on the market for £19 million, but the property never sold.

The tattoo artist and TV personality purchased a historic three-storey home in Los Angeles in 2016 for £4.8 million, and spent six years restoring the property into a gothic dream. 

The home was originally built in 1896 by Isaac Newton Van Nuys in the Victorian style, and was done up by Kat with her personal style in mind.

The mansion featured 11 bedrooms, eight-and-a-half bathrooms, a separate carriage house, a grand salon, a hidden bar with a secret door, and a theatre. 

The pièce de résistance is the blood red pool in the backyard, which perfectly aligns with Kat's gothic aesthetic. 

The star sold her home in 2023 for £6.3 million when she moved to Indiana, and released a documentary chronicling the restoration of the house.

Céline Dion and her late husband, René Angélil, splurged on a five-acre plot of land in 2008, and decided to build the ultimate hideaway in Florida for their growing family. 

The home was completed after two years of construction, featuring 13 bedrooms, 14 bathrooms, and most importantly, a water park complete with two pools, slides, water cannons and a river.

The Bahamas-inspired home went on to sell for £28.2 million in 2017, a year after René passed away from throat cancer.

While John Travolta's £7.3 million Florida home isn't too out of the ordinary compared to other celebrity homes, it's his personal airport that sets it apart.
