In 2008, DiCaprio purchased his first East Coast property, a $3.67 million apartment in NYC’s Battery Park neighborhood. It is located in an eco-friendly building where amenities abound and residents include celebrities like Tyra Banks, Cobie Smulders, and director Oliver Stone. There’s a yoga studio, a billiard room, a 50-foot lap pool, a landscaped terrace, and even a dog spa. The building also boasts a 24-hour fresh filtered air system, solar panels, and its own water treatment facility. In 2014, he expanded his holdings by purchasing his next door neighbor’s unit for $8 million. The second unit is a 2,300-square-foot, two-bedroom apartment with its own 1,000 square feet of outdoor living space. The actor still owns these homes.
Palm Springs retreat
Like many Hollywood stars, DiCaprio found himself looking for a vacation home just outside the city, and in 2014, he settled on a $5.2 million complex in Palm Springs previously built for actress and singer Dinah Shore in 1964. (DiCaprio’s real estate move reportedly even jump-started a boom in Palm Springs property sales.) The midcentury-modern gem was designed by renowned architect Donald Wexler, and spans 7,100 square feet, with six bedrooms and seven and a half bathrooms. The 1.3 acres also boast a guest house, a tennis court, a pool, and a detached gym. The actor still owns the home, but put it on the rental market in 2016. As of 2024, the picturesque getaway appears to still be available to rent.
Studio city ranch
That same year, DiCaprio also purchased a $2.05 million 1930s ranch located in the Los Angeles suburb of Studio City. Tucked behind a picket fence, the house measured 3,407 square feet, and featured four bedrooms and three bathrooms. There were two living rooms, each with its own fireplace, a wet bar, and a massive eat-in chef’s kitchen. The actor didn’t hang onto the home for long, however—he sold it for $2.237 million just two years later.
Greenwich Village condo
Turns out 2014 was a busy real estate year for DiCaprio: He also bought a $10 million condo in Greenwich Village. The 3,663-square-foot unit was comprised of three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, and outfitted with a number of next-level wellness amenities, including a walk-in steam shower with a custom-designed light therapy system, circadian rhythm lighting, a built-in juicing station, and in-duct aromatherapy. DiCaprio didn’t end up spending much time in the home, however, and he flipped it back onto the market less than two years later, ultimately selling it at a $2 million loss in late 2016.
Paradise Cove beach house
DiCaprio expanded his holdings in Malibu in 2017 by buying a $23 million beach house situated in the exclusive neighborhood of Paradise Cove. At the time of purchase, there was only a small 610-square-foot cottage perched on the 1.76-acre lot, though it seems unlikely that the actor kept it that way for long. Mansion Global reported at the time that the previous owner, a billionaire named Vinnie Viola, had already gotten approval to raze the house and build a two-story residence in its place. Plans also included a swimming pool, a cliffside deck, and a private beach. (Director Ridley Scott, a previous owner of the lot, maintained that tiny cottage for two years before selling it to Viola for $11 million.) As of 2024, however, it appeared that construction on the site was still in progress, so it remains to be seen what sort of residency DiCaprio will build there.
Los Feliz mansion
In 2018, DiCaprio purchased a $4.91 million traditional-style 1926 Los Feliz mansion from musician Moby. Set on an ultraprivate quarter-acre lot, the 4,644-square-foot home comprised five bedrooms and eight bathrooms, including two main suites, and boasted a pool and hot tub out back. Original features, including three fireplaces with detailed mantels, French doors, vaulted ceilings, and built-in bookshelves, gave the residence extra charm. According to the Los Angeles Times, Moby renovated much of the home during his two years of ownership, including adding custom millwork and upgrading the aforementioned fireplace mantles. The updated features included a lower-level guest suite that had a hidden passage connecting it to a steam room, as well as a loft space perfect for a yoga room or study. According to the Times, the actor purchased the residence for a family member. He didn’t hang onto it for long—DiCaprio listed the home for $5.75 million in 2021 and sold it to singer Miguel for $4.9 million the following year.
