Over the years, the Aldasoro Ranch near Telluride has been carved into numerous developments. Part of the ranch is now the largest star-studded subdivision in this high-dollar region. Another piece is home to the highest commercial airport in the country.

Tom Cruise is off the market — well, at least his Telluride estate is.

The “Mission: Impossible” star sold his 320-acre dwelling for the full asking price of $39.5 million , making it the highest residential sale ever in the Telluride region.

The 11,512-square-foot, custom-built home features seven bedrooms, nine full bathrooms. A guest house has three additional bedrooms.

The luxury property, which was listed in March, was on the market for less than a week before it was under contract, said its co-listing agent Dan Dockray. A Telluride-based senior global real estate adviser for LIV Sotheby’s International Realty, Dockray said Monday he and co-listing agent Eric Lavey had expected to have Cruise’s mountain abode signed by April 1.

The fast transaction illustrates Colorado’s red-hot real estate market, where the median price for a single-family reached over $500,000 for the first time in April . Celebrity homes, especially those like Cruise’s, don’t become available too often, Dockray said.

“This is an uncommon property,” he said. “With a property like this, we don’t have comparables. We priced it in the zone that made it attractive.”

Cruise, who completed the custom home in 1994, tried to sell the estate for $59 million seven years ago , but did not have a public listing. The market has changed since those days.

“It was priced correctly and correctly placed for such an incredible property,” Dockray said.

While Dockray is familiar with the Telluride market, Lavey is seeing its potential. The Beverly Hills, Calif.-based agent, who is also a senior global real estate adviser for Sotheby’s, called it, “one of the most special places in the world.”

“You’re not going to Telluride and find luxury cars,” Lavey said. “Locals are passionate about keeping it T-ride.”

Lavey said his client, who he did not disclose, and the locals are involved in the community and described Telluride as “not a playground for the rich.”

As a whole, Telluride does not have many properties with price tags over $20 million, and those that do often are not the subjects of a bidding war, Dockray said.

“We’re still a much younger market than Aspen and Vail,” Dockray said. About 20 luxury dwellings sell in both Aspen and Vail annually, he said, but Telluride only averages a handful.

One of the factors for Telluride’s growth has been the pandemic, with people leaving highly populated areas like New York, Chicago and Los Angeles for more private settings that offer family activities, Lavey said. While the worldly centers are opening up again, these second- and third-tier markets will continue to attract house hunters who demand remarkable homes.

“These markets have been the best possible during that last 12 months,” he said.

Both Dockray and Lavey foresee high-end listings performing well in Telluride beyond this time, with Lavey calling it a “once-in-a-quarter-century scenario.”

“People are seeing the value of Telluride,” Dockray said.

Is Tom Cruise’s Secluded Hollywood House Priced Right at $13M?

Whether you call it a  compound or a mansion , the ultraprivate  Los Angeles  home recently listed  by Tom Cruise is priced … right. At least that’s the opinion of a couple of area experts who believe the home’s privacy, beauty, and location make it a smart buy.

Listed for just a shade under $13 million, the 2.75-acre property in the Hollywood Hills is represented by listing broker  Michael Eisenberg .

Coming up with the necessary cash might be an issue if you’re not on the A-list, but Marisa Zanuck from Nest Seekers Zanuck in Beverly Hills told us the price accurately reflects the home’s size, location, and seclusion.

She’s toured the home, loves it, and thinks it won’t last long on the market. “I’m actually showing it this week to a celebrity client,” she said. “I think [agent] Michael Eisenberg is going to sell it fairly quickly. There aren’t a lot of houses for this price that have this kind of privacy and are done .”

Set back from Mulholland Drive on its own knoll, the home has a long, private driveway that separates prying eyes from the home’s occupants. Zanuck said the isolated locale will appeal to celebs who specifically want to avoid the camera’s gaze when not on set.

“Someone who wants extreme, extreme privacy is going to buy this house. Nobody knows who’s coming or going. Nobody knows if anyone’s home,” she said. “That’s why people like those long, private driveways. Most other houses in the hills don’t have this type of privacy, this sort of frontage separating them from the street. A lot of them are set into the hill, they’re right on the street, and they may have a gate—but it’s easy to look in and see if someone’s home.”

Gary Gold of Hilton & Hyland echoed Zanuck’s opinion: “It’s for someone looking to be private. It’s away from paparazzi, away from attention. There are no tour buses that can see this place.”

Gold also touted the great views from this location, the relative serenity, and the home’s proximity to nature. But that quietude does come with a small cost (beyond the $13 million, of course). As he put it, “The home’s close to everything, and next to nothing.”

He told us you couldn’t roll out of bed and walk down the street for a cup of coffee (or adult beverage), which may diminish the home’s allure for buyers who are party people. But for folks who desire serenity, the compound might be a place they never want to leave.

Zanuck said the property’s spacious layout, which includes a three-bedroom main house and a four-bedroom guesthouse, was what attracted her the most. “It’s like a mini estate. The outdoor living area and the indoor-outdoor flow is like being at a European villa,” she said.

And despite its Euro-inspired feel, she believes it’ll be a local buyer who makes a move for the Cruise compound. Gold agreed and said this home is “more of a local buy.”

“A lot of people are coming to California and parking money here from outside of the country. But this specific house, this type of house, is either going to be a celebrity or a California-based businessman,” Zanuck said.

Zanuck was also impressed by the fact that a buyer wouldn’t have to do much more than bring a moving truck. The location and square footage factor in to the home’s price tag, she said, but also “people are paying a premium for homes  that are done .”

Neither agent believes there’s any sort of celebrity premium built into the list price, but Gold wasn’t quite as gung-ho about the final number. He hemmed a bit and said the price is “not far off,” adding that it’s hard to get $13 million in the area. “If this home was in Bel Air, it would be priceless.”

An inside look at all the houses owned by Tom Cruise

“I love what I do. I take great pride in what I do. And I can’t do something halfway, three-quarters, nine-tenths. If I’m going to do something, I go all the way.”

Guess who made this statement. 

If your answer is Tom Cruise, you have guessed it right. 

Tom Cruise is one of the world’s most famous personalities and is known for his iconic roles. With a reported net worth of $600 million, the Hollywood actor and Scientologist is also one of the richest stars in the world. Over the years, Tom Cruise has built up a splendid real estate portfolio. From Beverly Hills to a country house in the UK , in this article, we look into his impressive portfolio, which includes Tom Cruise houses that he once owned and sold subsequently. Read on to know more. 

1. Hollywood Hills Mansion

Constructed in 2004, this property, pervaded by a retro charm, was inspired by the country estates found in Tuscany, Italy. Located along Mulholland Drive, this mansion lies in the core of a splendid 2.5-acre estate overlooking the Sunset Strip and Hollywood Hills. The entire estate was redesigned, likely by Tom Cruise, in 2006 and features wide-plank wood floors and Venetian plaster walls. The property boasts three en suite bedrooms and comes with brightly illumined living spaces with vaulted ceilings and European-styled decor. There seem to be other interesting elements, including an attractive chef’s kitchen, alfresco dining terraces, and a three-acre garden with a lagoon-style pool. Moreover, the extensive use of glass windows permits a sweeping 180- degree view across Los Angeles. This property also has a self-contained, four-bedroom guesthouse. This former property of Tom Cruise was priced at a hefty $13 million.

2. Beverly Hills Mansion

Moreover, it offers a sprawling 10,286 square feet of luxurious living space and also comes with it a backyard and a large swimming pool. It also features a tennis court, a children’s playground , and guesthouses. The secluded nature of the mansion offers much privacy away from the limelight. The Hollywood star sold his Beverly Hills mansion for USD 40 million. This was the second home in Los Angeles that he sold in less than a year after he sold his Hollywood Hills estate for USD 11.4 million. Tom Cruise bought the house for USD 32.5 million in 2007 and originally put the house on the market for USD 45 million. 

3. Tom Cruise’s Secluded Ranch, Colorado  

Tom Cruise’s vacation home in Colorado hit the market for $39.5 million in March 2021. The place brags a perfect hiking spot and is fully covered by rolling mountains all around. It has splendid mountain views that are enjoyed from the balcony and the patios of the property. Stretching across a massive 320 acres, Tom cruise bought this Colorado plot in the early 1990s. This 10,000 square feet property boasts vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling fireplaces, and magnificent alpine views. The interiors seamlessly reflect neutral colour tones and have cedar timbers along with native stones. The mansion possesses a large-sized dining space that includes the dining area of both the main and guest house. Other amenities in the property include a fitness center, a state-of-the-art security system, a snowmelt system, a wet bar, and underfloor heating. Moreover, there is a separate three-bedroom lodge in addition to the main residence.

4. Tom Cruise’s English Estate, West Sussex, UK

Called Rede place, Tom Cruise spent $4.2 million on this magnificent country estate in West Sussex. Sprawling over 14 acres of land, the country mansion has an interior area of 11,331-square feet. The property was built in 2003 which likely makes Tom Cruise one of its first owners. Despite its age, what we see here in this property reflects fascinating architectural features. It has a total of eight bedrooms and five bathrooms, divided between the main house and a separate, self-contained guest pavilion. The interior of the mansion is bright and dramatic and seamlessly blends modern state-of-the-art elements and traditional architectural elements. 

The basement level consists of a movie theatre , games room, and dance studio with a sprung floor. There are many living rooms and a light-filled kitchen that opens into a garden. A grand master suite with a private sitting room can be found on the top floor. The mansion lies well protected behind electric security gates and is equipped with CCTV. Other features include manicured gardens, a swimming pool, hot tub, and tennis court.

The apartment structure, known as The SkyView, was built by the Mexican property developer Moises Agami, one of the world’s richest Scientologists. It is a 10-storey structure with 36 apartments, and the Hollywood actor occupies the top 2 floors. The penthouse boasts unparalleled views across the city and also possesses a roof deck, a 39-foot infinity pool, solarium, hot tub, and bar.

Tom Cruise's Colorado Mountain Estate Sells for $39.5 Million

The 320-acre Telluride ranch is where the actor vacationed with his children and ex-wife Katie Holmes.

Protected by a gated entrance, once through you’ll ascend up a mile-long driveway, which leads to the 10,000-square-foot cedar-and-stone main house and three-bedroom guest lodge. Sweeping mountain views surround the property, which has easy access to forested trails and is near the historic downtown area. The home was sold by Eric Lavey and Dan Dockray of LIV Sotheby's International Realty. “If you spend any amount of time in this unique estate, you recognize that it is truly a once-a-generation type of offering—which makes it a bit impossible to let that opportunity pass you by,” says Lavey, the the lead agent on the listing. Read more on the sprawling property below.

The property is surrounded by rolling hills and mountains.

There's also a private gate into the Uncompahgre National Forest, perfect for hiking and other outdoor activities.

Views of the nearby mountain range can be seen from an array of balconies and patios.

The home's architecture is striking-yet-subdued, blending in with its natural surroundings.

Both the main house and guest house are clad in bleached cedar timbers and native stone.

The home's large dining areas, including the main house's dining room (pictured) make it perfect for entertaining.

The home's two fireplaces offer a great source of warmth, especially during colder months.

Vaulted wood-beam ceilings give the space a cozy sense of grandeur.

Other highlights of the home include a gym, recreation room, and library.

The wood-clad eat-in kitchen blends in seamlessly with the rest of the home.

Where Does Tom Cruise Live And How Big Is His House?

With a  net worth of $600 million , Tom Cruise and the word "movie star" are practically synonymous. Given his impressive resume, spanning from his breakout 1983 role in "Risky Business" to his ever-more-momentous "Mission Impossible" blockbuster franchise, the actor has not stopped making the big bucks for both himself and everyone around him — with his films earning hundreds of upon hundreds in the three decades he's been a star.

Like many of Hollywood's biggest stars, Cruise's life story was as close to rags-to-riches as they come. "For years, all I had were a bed, a desk and a chair," Tom Cruise told Roger Ebert in 1986. "When I was making a movie, they put me in hotel rooms. Between jobs, I moved back into my apartment, and my lifestyle dropped considerably." Coming from an underprivileged childhood, Cruise quickly learned the value of hard work no matter one's net worth.  "It's a strange thing, being handed so much power," Cruise also related to Ebert.  "My point of view and my values haven't changed. Everybody wants to push and pull me, but I refuse to change my lifestyle."

Nonetheless, Cruise's lifestyle has changed on the surface at least. Given that he has no doubt ditched that scarcely decorated apartment for cushier digs since, let's explore just where and what type of home Cruise inhabits these days!

Tom Cruise's penthouse is cool — even for Tom Cruise

Tom Cruise has called Florida his home base since 2018. Per Architectural Digest , Cruise fetched a pretty $55 million when he sold his Los Angeles and New York properties in 2016, moving into a multimillion-dollar penthouse in Clearwater, Florida. Planned by a wealthy Scientologist — Cruise is controversially tied to the religion — the 10-story SkyView condominium is one block from the Church of Scientology, per People . With Cruise reportedly close friends with church leader David Miscavige, a source told the outlet that the movie star was "very relaxed when he's here." 

In addition to occupying the entire top two floors, according to AD, Cruise's pad packs amenities like a roof deck, a nearly 40-foot pool, a bar, and more.What sets the pad apart from other celebrity dig, however, is the passageway that leads to a private, smaller condo on the second floor (which houses a flight simulator, for one). Additionally, there is a nine-car garage and private car elevator (what a cool phrase to say). Now that's  on par with expectations for the "Mission Impossible" star.

Tom Cruise sold his vacation home in Colorado for millions

Although Clearwater, Florida, might be Tom Cruise's personal headquarters, he also owns property in West Sussex, England — for one. Per The Sun , the estate was purchased by Cruise in 2006 for a reported $4.2 million. Bearing the regal title of "Rede Place," the property is located in Dormans Park, East Grinstead, which is reportedly close to the British headquarters of the Church of Scientology. Boasting 14 acres of land and an 11,331-square-foot interior, per insider , the manor was constructed in 2003, meaning Cruise would likely be one of its very first owners.

Cruise parted ways with his longtime 320-acre Telluride, Colo. ranch, which was reportedly a vacation refuge frequented by Cruise with ex-wife Katie Holmes and his children. Putting the ranch on sale for $39.5 million in March, per Forbes , the home sold without a hitch two months later for the asking price . Ardent followers of Cruise's career might remember this was the shooting location for a follow-up to his infamous 2005 interview with Oprah Winfrey , as noted by  Town & Country . However, Cruise's Telluride ranch's main draw, aside from being a ski haven known for its celebrity denizens, is the cozy seclusion it provides for the uber-famous. No wonder it sold so fast!

Tom Cruise’s Colorado house for sale: actor lists 320-acre ranch he helped design for £29 million

Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise is selling the 320-acre Colorado mountain ranch he helped design, with an asking price of $39.5 million (£29 million).

Located in the celebrity-favourite ski town of Telluride, the 10,000 sq ft, four-bedroom home comes with its own three-bedroom guesthouse, forested trails and spectacular views of the surrounding San Juan mountains.

The property hosted Cruise’s 2008 interview with Oprah Winfrey – a follow-up to the famed “couch-jumping” interview in 2005 – who was reportedly so taken with the location that she went on to purchase a home nearby in 2015. More celebrity residents of the area include Jerry Seinfeld and Ralph Lauren .

Cruise reportedly first put the estate on the market in 2014 for $59 million (£43 million), but has now lowered the asking price after the property failed to sell.

The home boasts a gym, recreation room, two wood-burning fireplaces, and a library, as well as bleached cedar timber cladding throughout and nine full bathrooms across the two houses.

The secluded property can be accessed via a secure gate located a one-mile drive away from the main house.

Considered a year-round outdoor pursuit haven, Telluride boasts world-class skiing; golf courses; facilities for rock climbing, horseback riding, and 4x4 Off Roading; as well as ample opportunities for hiking, cycling and camping.

Tom Cruise has listed his sprawling 298-acre estate in Telluride, Colo. for $59 million, according to The Wall Street Journal .

While $59 million seems like a hefty price tag, this property is expansive. The gated estate not only has a 10,000-square-foot main house with four bedrooms, a gym, recreation room, and library, but a 1,600-square-foot guesthouse with three other bedrooms as well.

There’s also a sports court for tennis, basketball, or ice hockey, and a private trail system with access to and views of the 14,000-foot mountains in the distance.

Sounds simply gorgeous.

Telluride Sotheby’s Real Estate listing agent Bill Fandel told WSJ that Cruise helped design and construct the stone and cedar home, which was completed in 1994.

In addition to being a destination in and of itself, the Cruise home is a 12-minute drive from downtown Telluride, Colo., as well as close to Telluride Ski Resort, one of the best in the world .

Welcome to Tom Cruise's Telluride estate in Colorado.

The main home has over 10,000 square feet of space and four bedrooms, a gym, recreation room, and library.

It sits on 298 acres of land.

Cruise helped to design and construct the native wood and cedar home himself. As you can see, it's very rustic on the inside.

But the major draw of the home is all of the nature.

Not only does it have great views of the nearby mountains, but it also has access to a private trail system.

There's also a 1,600-square-foot guesthouse on the property with three more bedrooms.

The home is 12 minutes away from downtown Telluride and is close to the Telluride Ski Resort.

The property also has a sports court for tennis, basketball, or ice hockey.

After viewing the estate, $59 million seems like a fair price.

One last view of the incredible home.

Tom Cruise Sells His Longtime Telluride Ranch for $39.5 Million - See Inside!

The 320-acre Colorado property was the setting for the actor's 2008 Oprah interview, and where he and then-fiancee Katie Holmes shared the first photos of daughter Suri in 2006

Tom Cruise is officially saying goodbye to his 320-acre estate in Telluride, Colorado.

The actor, 58, has sold the 7-bedroom, 9-bathroom property where he famously sat down for an interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2008 and, a year and a half earlier, opened up to Vanity Fair alongside then-fiancée Katie Holmes , sharing the first photos of their daughter, Suri.

The home is was listed for $39.5 million in March, with lead agent Eric Lavey and Dan Dockray of Sotheby's International Realty . It has now sold at asking.

According to the home's listing, the secluded, sprawling ranch was "custom-built for privacy, where unspoiled natural beauty, sweeping mountain vistas and outdoor recreation abound."

There's an impressive 11,512 square feet of living space split between an almost 10,000-square-foot main house and a guest house with three bedrooms.

Warm wood is the star of the show throughout the interior, featuring heavily in the furnishings, flooring, walls and even the kitchen's counters and island.

Amenities on the property include a game room that currently holds a billiards table, foosball table and piano; a fitness center; two fireplaces; an outdoor terrace and a three-car garage.

"Enveloped in mountain majesty and boasting extensive forested trails, this secluded estate - accessed via a scenic one-mile drive from a secure gated entry - is only minutes from historic downtown Telluride for world-class skiing and golf," the listing notes.

According to Vanity Fair , Cruise began making plans for the compound more than 30 years ago. He completed it in 1994, and put it on the market for $59 million back in 2014.

In her 2006 interview with Cruise and Holmes, 42, Vanity Fair 's Jane Sarkin described the home as having the feeling "of a sprawling lodge or chalet , with rustic, log-cabin touches-informal, airy, built with honey-colored deadwood from Oregon."

According to Sarkin, Holmes, Cruise and their kids (Suri, then 5 months old, and Cruise's son Connor , now 26, and daughter Isabella , now 28) spent their days at the ranch riding around a makeshift motocross track, jumping on an in-ground trampoline, playing golf and sitting around an outdoor fire pit.

Inside Tom Cruise’s $40M Telluride Ski Chalet

Mission Impossible mega star Tom Cruise equipped his luxe alpine escape in Telluride, Colorado with all the bells and whistles. The 11,512-square-foot living space was built in 1994, and includes the 10,000-square-foot, four-bedroom main house and a three-bedroom guest house. Tom has owned the mountain retreat since the ’90s and sold the property for $39.4 million last spring. With ski season upon, we thought it was worth a peek. Scroll down!

Nestled deep within rolling meadows and mature forest, the Telluride home holds a lot of history for Tom, according to Dirt.com . It is where he enjoyed time with his children and much of his marriage to actress Katie Holmes. It was also the location of his last major interview with Oprah , who was so taken with his ranch and its views that she bought her own home nearby in 2016.

The grounds are beautiful in all seasons. Outside is a sports court for tennis, basketball or ice hockey and a private trail system. The property’s 298 acres are threaded with hiking and riding trails, and tracks for dirt bikes and snowmobiles — plus there’s a private gate leading to the Uncompahgre National Forest.

The living room features beamed ceilings with bleached cedar timbers, an oversized fieldstone fireplace and charming French windows to frame  dramatic views of the tall peaks outside.

In this casual seating area, the walls are clad in rustic cedar timbers assembled by dovetail joinery; and the angular fireplace built from local stone echoes the mountains outside.

The dining room continues the Western theme, with a metal cowboy chandelier and art. The trestle table and farmhouse wood chairs drive home the casual, family friendly vibe.

The chalet kitchen features luxury appliances — including three refrigerators. A hanging wrought iron pot rack gives the space a personal feel.

This cozy den has plenty of rustic log shelving. The knotty wood walls and timbers give this space an intimate feel, perfect for après ski.

The games room also embraces a Western spirit, with Navajo-style rugs laid causally on the wood plank floors and a cowboy-theme parchment shade.

This picturesque spot outfitted with a timber bench is an ideal perch to enjoy a cup of hot chocolate as the sun climbs over the peaks in the morning.

Tom Cruise is waving goodbye to his $39.5 million mansion in Telluride, Colo.

For more than 25 years, the  Top Gun actor  has retreated to his vacation home in Colorado, but this winter the star will be staying elsewhere, as he sold the custom-designed estate this week. According to The Wall Street Journal , the four-bedroom house fetched the full asking price after just two weeks on the market. 

The new buyers will enjoy a spacious 10,000 square foot living space, including the three-bedroom guesthouse located on the 320-acre property. When not snuggled up by the fire, guests can peruse the numerous toys available for their enjoyment, from dirt bikes to snow shoes. There's even a snowmobile track!

Additionally, Cruise had the home outfitted with an office space, a spa and a three-car garage.

The Telluride lodge was just one of the many places the 58-year-old actor has called home throughout his career. He has multiple residences across the globe, including Los Angeles, Calif. and Clearwater, Fla.

Hollywood star Tom Cruise owns this luxurious penthouse in Florida

By AD Staff

Tom Cruise isn't slowing down anytime soon. The 56-year-old star of Mission: Impossible 6 — Fallout star continues to push himself to the limits by performing the most daring stunts in his films. In Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, Tom Cruise scaled Dubai's Burj Khalifa, while in Mission Impossible 5: Rogue Nation, he held on for dear life on the side of a plane as it took off. But for his latest mission as senior field operations agent for the Impossible Mission Force (IMF), Ethan Hunt, Tom Cruise has solidified his high-octane action star credentials by embarking on one of the biggest stunts of his career — jumping out of a plane 25,000 feet in the air while plummeting to the ground at 200 miles per hour. To get the scene right, Tom Cruise performed the stunt an awe-inspiring 106 times — that's some commitment to the role!

Tom Cruise: Real Estate Portfolio

When Cruise isn't performing death-defying stunts, he snaps up prime real estate. He has lived in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, Telluride, Colorado, and owns a country home in the UK (not surprisingly, located near Britain's Scientology HQ), as well as properties in New York. The Jerry Maguire star recently purchased a two-storey penthouse in downtown Clearwater, Florida—close to the Scientology HQ. Tom Cruise, a devout follower of Scientology, has been effectively 'homeless' since he put his homes in California and New York on the market—earning GBP 41.5million ($55 million) in the process. However, it is believed that Cruise is living in a luxury accommodation within the Scientology Church's grounds in the coastal Florida town.

Tom Cruise in his Plush Penthouse

The actor's Florida penthouse is on top of a new development called The Skyview, which is being built by one of the world's richest Scientologists, Mexican property developer Moises Agami. The apartment—perched on the ninth and tenth floors—comes with a roof deck, a 39-foot infinity pool, solarium, hot tub, and bar. The penthouse also comes with a passageway leading to a secret smaller condo on the second floor, which features a flight simulator, office, and gym. Tom Cruise's new pad also comes with a nine-car parking space and a private car elevator. And while most buildings owned by the Church of Scientology are generically nice and slightly dated, Tom Cruise's home is contemporary and chic

Inside Tom Cruise's $39.5 million former mansion, with photos

Tom Cruise sold his luxurious mansion in the woods for nearly $40 million. The photos from the listing give a sneak peek into his lifestyle.

Spencer See

Tom Cruise is one of the biggest stars in Hollywood. He has starred in major film franchises such as Mission Impossible, Jack Reacher , and Top Gun. He's also been featured in hit films like Jerry Maguire, A Few Good Men, and many others. He is also a four-time Oscar nominee. With a decorated acting resume, he can afford to live in private luxury. An example of this is Tom Cruise's $39.5 million former mansion in Telluride, Colorado.

Around the '90s when Cruise was still establishing his presence in the Hollywood scene, he acquired a nearly 10,000-square-foot mansion situated in the Rocky Mountain neighborhood. The Oscar nominee purchased the property for an undisclosed amount.

Fast forward to 2014, Cruise became open to the idea of selling the Rocky Mountain mansion. As a result, he initially privately listed the property for $59 million. But due to sentimental reasons, Cruise never fully pushed through with the public listing until 2021. After just two months on the market, Cruise sold the property for a cool $39.5 million.

Here are some photos of Tom Cruise's $39.5 million former mansion in Telluride, Colorado.

Photos courtesy of: Dirt

Cruise's $39.5 million former mansion encompasses 9,894 square feet of living space. The property includes seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms. It features a spacious living room with a stone fireplace, a pool table, beamed ceilings, a modern kitchen with three refrigerators, and a library.

Outside of the home, Cruise probably didn't have any problems getting some fresh air. Aside from the surplus of green spaces, Cruise also enjoyed views of jets coming from and going to the Telluride Regional Airport from atop a hill. Moreover, the property also has a helipad nearby. With several aviation sightings, one cannot help but think about Cruise's remarkable acting performances in the pair of Top Gun movies.

Tom Cruise is one of the biggest Hollywood stars. So of course he is also one of the highest-paid actors in the industry today. Aside from his lucrative paychecks as an actor and a producer, he also enjoys a lot of earnings from his various endorsement deals. As per Celebrity Net Worth, Tom Cruise has a net worth of around $600 million.

Nevertheless, this is all the information that we have on Tom Cruise's $39.5 million mansion in Telluride, Colorado.

Just One of Tom Cruise’s Many Estates

Tom Cruise is the proud owner of four very impressive homes, including a 7 bedroom, 9 bath mansion at 1111 Calle Vista Drive in Beverly Hills. Cruise bought the estate in 2007 for $30.5 million in the hopes that he and then-wife Katie Holmes would raise a family there.

Unfortunately for Cruise, things soured between him and Holmes when Katie got tired of his religious beliefs. Holmes left Cruise in 2012 after six years of marriage, taking their young daughter Suri with her, and leaving Tom with a running total of three ex-wives.

Cruise has now asked his Church of Scientology to help him find his dream wife in the hope that she can fulfill his hopes of once again raising a family in the Beverly Hills Estate. The home has a pool, a pool house, a tennis court which Cruise converted into a full basketball court, a large parking area, and a very small backyard.

Cruise is probably tired of the tabloid reports of a romance between Katie and her best buddy, actor and singer, Jamie Foxx. When he is not looking for a new wife, Cruise is busy making more movies, including a sequel to “Jack Reacher”, a sequel to “The Mummy”, and now a sequel to “Top Gun,” where he reprises his role as the pilot “Maverick.” This movie has just been announced, but maybe this time Cruise is the one who “lost that loving feeling” instead of actress Kelly McGillis.

Biggin Hill: Tom Cruise's new hometown labelled 'glory hole of the South' in scathing review

The star moved into a home in Biggin Hill this year, but the surrounding area has had its fair share of negative comments on ILiveHere

It's a sad fact that residents find anyway they can to complain about their hometown - but they do.

Even though Kent is arguably the best place to live (we might be biased), it doesn't stop people finding any fault they can.

Seaside towns in the county are infamously subject to such ridicule, but places further inland don't escape either.

The borough of Bromley for instance, just outside of the Kent border has had a lot of harsh comments.

Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise recently settled into a house in Biggin Hill as he was filming the next instalment in the Mission: Impossible series.

Whilst delays were taking place on set due to a COVID outbreak, Tom was spotted enjoying several events in the south.

He attended both the finals of Wimbledon and the Euros, sitting alongside David Beckham for the latter, as well as making an appearance at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

An insider close to the actor has said he feels the area is "his rural bolt-hole, away from the hustle and bustle of London where he had been before."

However, Cruise might have not chosen to live in the borough had he read some of the scathing reviews on the satirical site ILiveHere.

Biggin Hill itself mostly escaped harsh words, except for one anonymous reviewer who said it was "being overrun by a force of evil" that even the RAF who used to be stationed there during World War II couldn't keep out.

The name of this group of people was starred out though, probably because it was incredibly derogatory.

It read: "Pastimes include destroying every bus shelter between Lebanon Gardens and Bromley Common, setting fire to the Recreation Ground Pavillion building, and smashing the windows of every car parked between “The Fox and Hounds” and St Winifred’s Road."

Another reviewer flexed their creative muscles calling Bromley and the surrounding area "the glory hole of the South East of England" and a "mecca for young p***** who live in the neighbouring areas."

It went on: "For all the needles and used condoms, Bromley does have a charm which is hard to find anywhere.

"Only a few summers ago we had some shootings of an evening, the streets were awash with burberry coloured blood."

'To most civilised people it’s an utter s*** hole'

The comments on ILiveHere were quite entertaining to read, as reviewers seemingly tried to outdo one another in how extreme their descriptions went.

One reviewer said: "To most civilised people it’s an utter s*** hole, but to the kings and princesses of **** it is paradise.

"Once there was a House of Fraser, now there stands a TK Maxx.

"If you would like to share a beer with those recently released from police custody, head for the Swan.

"Here the clientele sit with their worldly **** possessions in their designer HM Prison Service carriers.

"Bromley, truly is the pits of the earth. Avoid it all costs."

Another person titled their review as Bromley being the "Black Hole of Intelligence".

It begins its tale by saying: "Settle down boys and girls, and I will tell you a story.

"A story of the borough which ended up with all the ***** even the ********* towns in Britain disposed of.

"If you don’t already know, I’m talking about the rancid stench that is the London Borough of Bromley."

The local areas nearby of Orpington and St Mary Cray weren't safe either, with the reviewer wishing a "tactical nuclear strike" upon them.

To round it all off the usual target of the reviews on ILiveHere came into focus with the "chavs" being discussed by one irate individual.

"Bromley is one of the chaviest towns in London (I say one of, it’s not the worst but it’s not **** free; far from it)," it read.

"Thanks to all the encouragement by the conservative party (we really appreciate it, you f****) they swarm into the town centre in their hundreds.

"So yeah, if you’re thinking of coming to Bromley in the future, try going somewhere half decent, like Central London."

Inside the multi-million dollar concept mansion designed for Tom Cruise 

Published on Sep 15, 2023 at 4:09PM (UTC+4)

• by Kate Bain

Last updated on Sep 18, 2023 at 2:24PM (UTC+4)

This is the incredible multi-million dollar concept mansion created for Tom Cruise . 

Designed by AI, the home is actually inspired by the incredibly dangerous stunt the actor performed in the latest Mission Impossible movie.

READ MORE! Tom Cruise’s latest stunt is going viral – this is why

The sanctuary sits atop a cliff in Norway and is made up of about five levels that jut out over the water below. 

One of its most striking design features is the infinity pool that curves around the property and looks out over the stunning view. 

It’s hard to look past the exterior, but it’s the interior of the home that really screams ‘secret field agent’.

The interior is defined by expansive rooms with a dark, and almost sinister feel to them.

The indoor pool sits underneath an archway made out of wooden panels that cast a striking pattern over the water below. 

And the living room is fitted with dark greens and grays that blend into the stone walls around them. 

Sticking to the dark, dramatic theme, the bedroom is lit with lanterns and has a fire in the middle of the room. 

The rock wall behind the bed and the wildly high ceiling only add to the dramatic feel of the suite too. 

Then, of course, the concept mansion has a commercial-sized cinema room, fitted with luxe, comfortable sofas.

View this post on Instagram A post shared by @houses

Designed by Houses ’ AI team, the incredible concept mansion was inspired by one of Tom Cruise’s most iconic movie stunts. 

The 61-year-old recently performed what Paramount dubbed the ‘biggest stunt in cinema history’ while filming part one of the upcoming two-part finale for the Mission: Impossible franchise.

In the clip, we see Tom Cruise, who plays Ethan Hunt, jumping his motorbike off a cliff in Norway . 

It’s undoubtedly one of the craziest stunts ever performed by an actor. 

But it shouldn’t really come as a surprise because Cruise is famous for doing all his own stunts for movies.

Inside Victoria Beckham’s 50th birthday party, from celeb-filled guest list to Spice Girls reunion

I t’s like the behind-the-scenes arguments never happened. Beaming with joy, the Spice Girls – more like the Mature Mothers – reunited at the weekend to celebrate Victoria Beckham’s 50th birthday at a party said to have cost a quarter of a million pounds.

In front of just a select few family and friends, including the Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise, the all-girl group performed Stop , a hit from 27 years ago, at Oswald’s, currently the fanciest private members club in London. 

David Beckham recorded the singalong on his phone and offered fans a 12-second video clip on his Instagram account. The entirety of the Spice Girls had last performed in public in 2012 at the closing ceremony of the London Olympics.

Victoria – the artist formerly known as Posh Spice – also posted the video on her Instagram account.  Accompanied by the hashtag “Spice Up Your Life”, the video notched up 40 million views in a little more than 14 hours.

On her Instagram account, Mrs Beckham, who now earns a living as a fashion designer and brand, wrote: “Best night ever! Happy Birthday to me! I love you all so much!”

Prompting speculation a full-blown reunion could be just around the corner, the ex-Spice Girls not only sang in harmony (and in tune) but also recreated the same famous dance steps they had managed back in 1997 when Stop was first released. 

It was impressive stuff, given that Beckham has been on crutches caused by a gym injury that broke her foot. She hobbled into the venue on crutches but wearing high heels rather than the surgical boot she had been confined to for the past few weeks .

The former bandmates Geri Horner (Ginger Spice), Emma Bunton (Baby), Melanie Chisholm (Sporty) and Melanie Brown (Scary) were clearly delighted to be celebrating the landmark birthday. Ginger and Scary have already passed 50.

The birthday party attracted an A-list crowd to the Mayfair venue, that included not only Cruise but also the actors Salma Hayek, Jason Statham and Eva Longoria, who is godmother to the Beckhams’ daughter Harper. Also enjoying the celebrations were the model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, the chef Gordon Ramsay, and singer Marc Anthony, who is godfather to Cruz Beckham. 

Friends of the family insisted that despite the glamorous guest list, what made Mrs Beckham, a mother-of-four, the happiest was to have her fellow Spice Girls show up.

“It meant the world to Victoria that they were all there,” a friend told Mail Online. “They were a huge part of her life and they shared so much together. They were special days and so, of course, to have them there to mark her 50th was just wonderful for her. It made everything so perfect.” 

One of the last to arrive at the venue was Geri Horner, dressed in a white diamante dress, although absent was her embattled husband Christian Horner, the boss of the Formula 1 team Red Bull, who was recently investigated and then cleared of inappropriate behaviour towards a female colleague.

The party was the culmination of a series of celebrations to mark a birthday that fell on Wednesday last week. 

Prior to the event, Mrs Beckham posted pictures wearing one of her own creations alongside her children Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and Harper as well as husband David, the former footballer turned football club owner. She posted ahead of time: “Can’t wait to celebrate with my friends and family.”

The Beckhams kicked off Saturday night with pre-drinks at the couple’s £30 million mansion in Holland Park, according to reports, before the trip across town to Oswald’s, where Cruise arrived as a good samaritan, helping up a photographer who fell as the star made his way inside. 

Her daughter-in-law, Nicola Peltz Beckham, with whom it has been reported she had once had issues, was unable to attend the celebrations after she had to rush to her grandmother’s side but posted a tribute to her mother-in-law on Instagram, writing: “I love you so much and love being your dance partner forever.” 

She missed out on party bags given to guests on their departure that each contained £500 worth of branded Victoria Beckham goods, including a candle and scent. 

When it was time to go home in the early hours of Sunday, David Beckham did what all good husbands do: he gave his tired and emotional wife a piggyback out of the club.

Tom Cruise Is a London Boy

Sometimes when God closes a door (Taylor Swift says “So long” ), She opens a window (Tom Cruise does the splits). Cruise is living that life in London, and for him that means break-dancing, doing the splits, and watching the British absolutely lose their crumpets. Cruise has lived in London since 2021 and has, in that time, been at the former queen’s Platinum Jubilee, the British Grand Prix, according to the Mercury News . And now he has attended the most British event of all: Posh Spice’s birthday party. Fortunately, he still has the American propensity to do the most. While at the party, Cruise began break-dancing and ended his routine by doing the splits, according to the Daily Mail . “People were absolutely dumbfounded,” a source mentioned. All we’ll say about that is that if there’s one thing the Mission: Impossible franchise could do to s ecure those Imax screens , it just might be a (gay?) club scene in which Cruise distracts the bad guys by jumping into the splits like a Drag Race contestant. Just an idea.
