Hugh Laurie – $3,8 million, Los Angeles, California

In America, Hugh Laurie is renowned for playing Dr. Gregory House in House MD. But in his native England, he’s famous as one-half of the Laurie and Fry duo. He was one of the most-watched and highest-paid actors in the industry when playing House. This allowed him to purchase a 3,242 square foot mansion in Los Angeles.

It’s an English country house-style home, likely to help him deal with the homesickness of having to be away from his family. It also has a gym, pool, and guest house. He is starring as a voice actor in an animated movie called The Amazing Maurice.
