The world of politics is ruthless. Never mind the competition: dealing with the criticism of the press and public alone can be an extremely demanding task. But if there’s something we’ve learned by getting to know the houses of America’s most prominent political figures, it is that life in politics also comes with its perks.

From former presidents to rising stars of the Senate, our list features the humble (and not so humble) abodes of the men and women we all love to judge, criticize, and—once every four years—vote for. From Trump Tower to CityCenterDC, let’s take a look at the beautiful properties America’s most influential people call home!

Barack Obama – Washington, $8.1 Million

One of the high-profile speakers present at the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26), the former president, Barack Obama, is still pretty close to the ins and outs of politics. Evidence of that is the fact that he still owns property in Washington, the city where he served for eight busy years as the world’s most powerful man.

After renting this exquisite family home for years, Barack and his wife Michelle decided to have it for good and acquired it for the reported price of $8.1 million. It features a dreamy kitchen, a roomy garden, as well as a fitness room and sits in the trendy neighborhood of Kalorama.

Donald Trump – New York, $100 Million
