Elton John – Old Windsor, England

When Elton John first bought this 16th-century manor in Old Windsor in the ‘70s, he paid around $5.6 million (adjusted for inflation). It’s safe to say that after extensive renovations and his name linked to it, the Woodside manor is now worth a lot more than that.

The 37-acre property with 8 bedrooms, has been described as even better than Queen Elizabeth’s residence; and why wouldn’t it? The manse has its own orchid and gardens where he hosts lavish parties and dinners. He has even added an indoor swimming pool to it! He’s now worth around $500 million and shares this house with his husband, David Furnish, and their children.
