Joe Biden - $2.7 Million, Delaware
While President Joe Biden will be calling 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue home for the next four years, he has plenty of living options available for when he retires one day or simply needs a break from running the United States government.
This includes his spectacular holiday home in Delaware, which is worth nearly three million dollars! With an outside kitchen, six bedrooms, and majestic views of the Atlantic ocean, this expansive estate is the perfect place for a world leader that needs a location where he can spend time with his entire family.
Donald Trump – $54 Million, New York
The former US President is famous for his luxurious lifestyle and expensive properties. The real estate tycoon and politicians have numerous properties worldwide, but his favorite remains his three-eleven penthouse at his sixty-six skyscraper at 725 Fifth Avenue. Interestingly, his office is in the same building, meaning that he does not have to drive miles to get to work; just a lift ride would do.
You might not know, but Trump dubbed the gigantic home as the "best apartment ever built," and believe us, that is no exaggeration. Not only the 10,99 square-feet is massive, but it is also currently valued at a whopping $54 million!
Mike Pence - Undisclosed, Indianapolis
Being the most recent former US vice president, Mike Pence is most definitely a book many would like to uncover. He has kept his private life under wraps so much that many do not know where he lives, with some speculating he does not own a home.
He has, however, had the privilege of living in the vice president's house in Washington DC, where he and his wife renovated the space to make it suitable for their family. Out of the changes they made, the most interesting is the 'boyfriend room,' where any boy who's visiting his daughters sleep as they are not allowed in the girls' rooms.
Barack Obama - $11.75 Million, Martha's Vinyard, Massachusetts
Former President Barack Obama has an impressive real estate portfolio, but the crown jewel in his collection has to be his immaculate abode in Martha's Vinyard. After all, who wouldn't want to spend just over eleven million dollars on a twenty-nine-acre piece of land in such a prime location!
Not only does the jaw-dropping home feature seven bedrooms and two extra wings for guests, but it also has it's very own private beach and boathouse! There is no doubt that this Massachusetts home is the perfect escape for the Obama's when they need a break from the hustle that surrounds them in the nation's capital.
Nancy Pelosi – Undisclosed, San Francisco
Almost everyone knows the incumbent US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, thanks to her years-long political career. Yet did you know, she owns a multi-million-dollar mansion in an expensive neighborhood in San Francisco that features four bedrooms and a spacious living room.
Given Pelosi's whopping $100 million net worth - the highest net worth among the Congressional leaders – her stunning red brick property should not come as a surprise. Pelosi and her husband, Paul, already have numerous properties under their name. However, this estate still remains their primary residence and for all the right reasons!
Jimmy Carter - $167,000, Georgia
You would expect a former leader of the free world to live in luxury, but ex-Commander-In-Chief Jimmy Carter is most certainly an exception to this rule! His house is worth a mere hundred and sixty-seven thousand dollars, already far beneath the average of most homes in the area.
But Jimmy has always been known as a man who doesn't indulge in unnecessary spending, so it makes sense that he would live in a humble abode. He even makes his own yogurt instead of purchasing it in store! It is safe to say that you don't become America's longest-living former President by wasting all your money!
Arnold Schwarzenegger - $23 Million, Brentwood, California
It pays to be a famous actor, and it can be lucrative being a politician. So with Arnold Schwarzenegger having both those accolades under his belt, it is no wonder that The Terminator can afford a magnificent seven-bedroom mansion in Brentwood, California.
When Arnold purchased the nearly fifteen thousand square foot estate in 2002, he paid just over eleven million dollars for the sprawling property. Now almost two decades later, this hilltop palace is worth more than double as much, with an estimated value of nearly twenty-three million bucks! Clearly, the former governor made a solid investment when he procured this piece of land.
Bernie Sanders - $575,000, Champaign Islands, Vermont
Senator Bernie Sanders is no amateur when it comes to real estate. This astute politician owns three lovely properties, of which two are in his home state of Vermont.
Bernie and his wife recently dropped some serious cash on a luxurious lakeside holiday home in the Champaign Islands in a deal worth nearly six hundred thousand dollars! Now the Sanders family will get to enjoy almost five hundred feet of prime beachfront whenever they decide to get away from the hectic schedule Bernie has being a public servant for the people of the United States.
Elizabeth Warren - $3 Million, Cambridge, Massachusetts
It seems that Senator Elizabeth Warren had a plan when she purchased her two-bedroom home in Cambridge, Massachusetts. When she first procured the property in 1995, she paid about four hundred and fifty thousand dollars for the location, and her investment has become very lucrative over the years.
Now nearly two decades later, the Victorian-style abode has increased to a whopping three million dollars in value! That figure is almost two million bucks more than the average other places go for in the same area. With smart financial decisions like these, it's no wonder that this woman is worth nearly twelve million dollars!
Elijah Cummings - Undisclosed, Baltimore, Maryland
Up until his passing in 2019, Representative Elijah Cummings remained a man of the people. During his life, Elijah never shied away from fighting for the rights of the disenfranchised and strived to make his community a better place to live.
Thus it comes as no surprise that this shining example of a man did not live in luxury but preferred to stay in a humble row house in Baltimore's inner-city. We don't know what his property is worth today, but no amount of money could ever come close to the value he brought the world.
John Lewis - Undisclosed, Atlanta
Representative John Lewis was a remarkable man. Up until he passed away in 2020, John never backed down when it came to fighting for the freedoms that America claims to hold so dear. He even took on former President Donald Trump on several occasions!
Although we don't know much about where John Lewis made his home, it is a well-known fact that he had a deep love for the city of Atlanta. From what we can tell, this renowned civil rights activist never lived above his means and always put the needs of those he served before his own.
Hillary Clinton - $5.3 Million, Washington D.C.
The Clintons have an extensive property portfolio, but one of these houses has a special place in world-famous politician Hillary Clinton's heart. Her mansion, nicknamed 'Whitehaven,' has been where the former first lady has gone time after time to revive herself or focus on things like writing her memoir.
Since Hillary acquired the stunning abode in 2000, she's done extensive remodeling, which has more than doubled the home's initial value. Now sitting at a worth of over five million dollars, it remains her fortress of solitude and a place to which only the luckiest of people score an invite to experience!
Andrew Cuomo - $1.5 Million, New York
We think that almost everyone knows New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. Best known for his exceptional opinions on national issues and his state's policies, Andrew prefers to live a luxury lifestyle. You might have heard about his famous estate known as 'Lily Pond' is spread on a whopping three acres and offers breathtaking views.
Inside the house colonial-style property, you'll find a naturally fed peak, a stunning pond, waterfall, and four spacious bedrooms. Currently, the magnificent property is valued at a whopping $1.5 million, and believe us; it is worth every single penny!
Alexandria Ocasio Cortez – Undisclosed, Bronx
The young American lawmaker is indeed an example of hard work and dedication. Over the year, Cortez has worked pretty hard, and it would be fair to say that she must be one of the nation's favorite legislators. Well, just because she is making history does not necessarily mean that she is making big bucks. Reportedly, the congresswoman shares a studio apartment in the Parkchester neighborhood.
Surprisingly, in an interview, Cortez revealed that she couldn't even afford a decent residence in the US capital as they are pretty expensive. It would be fair to say that Alexandria is a living example of a modest lifestyle and hard work!
Ben Carson - $1.2 Million, Virginia
Even though Ben Carson is a famous person, not many fans know that the politician owns a stunning 6,380 square-feet home in Virginia. The breathtaking property is located just a few miles from the White House and features four bedrooms as well as a 1.5-acre plot. Ben bought the massive estate in 2012, and reportedly, he and his wife spent millions in the renovation, including a gourmet-style kitchen, roof renovation, and decorative columns.
Besides, the $1.2 million house features an invitingly spacious living room with a snooker table. Outside, the home is surrounded by lush green trees, a perfect gateway from the hectic Capitol schedule.
Madeleine Albright - $3 Million, Washington
Madeleine Albright made history when she became the first woman to become America's top diplomat under former President Bill Clinton. But not many people know about the property she called home during in the 60s. The famous Tiffany Family once owned the gorgeous $3 million priced mansion, famed worldwide for their bespoke luxe jewelry - Tiffany's.
Surprisingly, the person who made breathtaking wooden moldings and fireplaces at the well-known Raynham Hall did similar work on Albright's property. Additionally, the massive 4.3-acre mansion features a pool house with a saltwater pool and a beautiful cottage nestled in the elegant grounds.
George W. Bush – $1.3 Million, Texas
Who does not love living in Texas? Well, it looks like the former president loved the state so much that post-retirement, he and his wife, Laura, decided to spend their lives at their Chapel Ranch in Texas. During Bush's time in the White House, they made sure to visit the property on holidays, earning it the nickname ''The Western White House."
You might be surprised to find out that the massive single-story ranch also has a forty-mile biking track. And believe us, whenever the doors open, the property becomes a veritable pavilion, filled with birdsongs, effortlessly capturing the passing cool breezes!
Bill Clinton – $2.5 Million, New York
Over the years, the Clintons have spent most of their time in the government-provided residences. But soon after Bill Clinton left the White House, he and his wife were in need of a financial boost. Thanks to their lucrative book deals and speeches at different events, Bill managed to make more than $15 million, allowing the couple to purchase an eleven-room Dutch colonial-style mansion in New York.
As expected, only a few people to lucky to see the interior, but if Clinton's other properties are anything to go by, his New York dwelling is stellar. Interestingly, Bill mainly prefers it for family events at the property, especially thanksgiving!
Andrew Yang - Undisclosed, Atlanta
Andrew Yang's sturdy house is specially designed for entertainment, and it features a basketball court, pool, and an outdoor area made for leisure. Interestingly, the home was used by some of the prominent civil rights leaders in the 60s, including Martin Luther King. Today, lush green trees and carefully planted flowers surround the 8,761-square-foot residence.
The generously proportioned five-bedroom house appears to be attractive, and a mid-century meets modern home vibe with a double-sided fireplace and invitingly sunny living area. Andrew certainly has the perfect pad for an idyllic summer getaway.
Cory Booker – $417,000, New Jersey
If you live somewhere in New Jersey, the chances are that you might have bumped into Cory Booker and seen his property. He owns a charming residence in the Newark neighborhood currently valued at a $417,000 price tag. Booker's modest beige-brick townhouse features two bedrooms and a living room.
Even though Cory is yet to give us a virtual tour of his undoubtedly cozy-looking abode, we are sure that it comes equipped with all the necessities of life to match his standards. Our living spaces say so much about who we are, and we definitely want to see what Booker's house looks like from within.
Al Gore - $8.8 Million, Nashville
Picture a compound, 10,000 square feet with a mansion spanning over 3,000 square feet with twenty rooms, eight baths, a pool complete with its own pool house, and a guest house; this is the life former US vice president Al Gore lives in Nashville.
With such a huge house, energy consumption is bound to be up the roof. This will surely draw criticism from environmentalists, especially if the primary source of energy is natural gas. Gore has, however, tried to remedy this by going for green energy solutions.
Gabrielle Giffords - $1.5 Million, Tucson
Having survived an attempt on her life, Gabrielle Giffords decided to move from Houston to Tucson, her hometown. The woman of steel bought a house in a high-end neighborhood for well over $1.4 million, in a compound covering about 4,500 square feet. It has ten rooms, a pool, and tile roof; a well-deserved home after going through such a traumatic situation.
The democratic politician, who has served in the US House of Representatives, started as an urban planner, and it is no surprise that she scored such a gem.
Ted Cruz - Undisclosed, Houston
The name Ted Cruz is one that is not only known to avid fans of politics but also almost all citizens of the US, as he is one of the heavyweights in the republican party. The fifty-year-old lawyer and solicitor has, however, kept his life private with no one knowing the exact value of his home in Houston, Texas.
What is, however, known is his net worth, which is estimated at well over $4.6 million, and as such, it is safe to say he lives like a king behind those high walls.
John Kerry - $11.75 Million, Chilmark
Former Secretary of State John Kerry embodies the luxurious living lifestyle, with a home worth $11.75 million in Chilmark. Moving from Nantucket, where he and his wife had a home worth about $25 million, he settled in Martha's Vineyard where he says is ideal for his love of outdoor activities due to more bike paths and bigger forests.
His home boasts seven bedrooms, a forest, beachfront, and a view of the Elizabeth Islands. This is not the only property he owns, as he has a couple of others, all totaling a value of about $33 million.
Pete Buttigieg - $250,000, South Bend, Indiana
When Pete Buttigieg hit the campaign trail for South Bends mayoral seat, he pulled the masses with charisma, more so since they could resonate with his middle-class lifestyle. The democratic presidential hopeful lives in a middle-class neighborhood where he pays a mortgage of $450 a month for a home worth about $250,000. Not many have had the chance of visiting, and its setup remains unknown.
If how he made South Bends real estate turn from somehow inexistent to one of the most budding neighborhoods using his 1,000 homes in 1,000 days program is anything to go by, it is safe to say he walks the talk.
John P Kennedy III - $1 Million, Brookline, Massachusetts
Joe Kennedy is a member of the prominent Kennedy family, which has produced some of the most significant US history politicians. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that he lives in a home many would itch to have, with an estimated value of $1 million in Massachusetts in the Kennedy compound. The six-acre compound comprises three houses, Joe’s being the main house. It boasts endless amenities including six bedrooms, living, dining, sun, television, sewing and utility rooms, a wine cellar, and a theatre.
Its outside has ocean views with manicured lawns, a swimming pool, tennis court, and a boathouse. The ultimate paradise if you ask us!
Chuck Schumer - $157,000, Brooklyn
Chuck Schumer is a man who loves cycling, to the extent of taking his political colleagues on bike tours in Brooklyn, where he and his wife own a $157,000 home. However, Chuck proudly says the house is now worth ten times that amount, as real estate has picked upwards in the area in recent years.
Not much is known about its specifications, but homes in the apartment are mostly three-bedroomed with various salient amenities. The senate minority leader has had some unexpected visitors in the recent past in the name of protestors who had camped outside his home seeking audience with the politician.
Maxine Waters - $4.5 Million, Los Angeles
With an estimated net worth of about $2 million, there are very few things Maxine Waters cannot buy. Having served in the US House of Representatives and being among the most powerful women, her hard-earned money sure dictates some level of luxury, with a $4.5 million home in Los Angeles, California.
Her compound covers an area of over 6,000 square feet. Apart from aerial shots of the home, not much is known of its layout, but it is safe to speculate it houses top-notch amenities. However, this is not the only asset she owns, as she has a couple of other properties spread across the US.
Marco Rubio - $675,000, West Miami
For a person who claims to live in a working-class neighborhood, Marco Rubio's $675,000 home tells a different story. The senator chose to settle in the same area he grew up in, buying a home for $550,000, which covers an area of about 2,700 square feet on a quiet street.
It boasts four bedrooms, three and a half baths, a swimming pool on its outside, manicured shrubs, and a captivating driveway made of brick. However, the value of the house has shot upwards due to a rise in demand for real estate in the area.
Amy Klobuchar – Undisclosed, Washington
Apart from being a U.S senator, Amy Klobuchar is also an accomplished lawyer. Needless to say, she would have collected the extra bucks to pay for her lavish homes, situated in Minnesota and Washington!
Currently, the senator is residing in her Washington property, located just five miles from the Capitol. Although the politician herself is living a content life in the three-bedroom apartment, she often has to rent homes when her extended family comes to visit. This set-up sure can come in handy when Klobuchar seeks some privacy but doesn’t want to be rude to her guests.
Beto O’Rourke - Undisclosed, Texas
Beto O-Rourke has been enjoying his days in the exquisite sunset heights house constructed with beautiful white stones. Dubbed as “William Home,” the house was built in the 1900s, and the official record of the building dates back to 1906. It was designed by Henry C. Trost, a talented architect from El Paso.
O-Rourke sure must never get tired of hearing stories about the archaic construction with such a historical significance attached to it! The massive property screams lavishness in all its glory, and naturally, someone, as loaded as O’Rourke, would choose a locality like this.
Ivanka Trump - $5.5 Million, Washington D.C.
In 2017 the New York Times reported that Ivanka Trump had purchased a $5,5-million mansion in Washington D.C.’s Kalorama neighborhood. We’re guessing that she wasn’t using it any longer when she put it up for rent in 2021, seeking $18,000 a month! Of course, by then, she had stopped being the President’s Advisor.
Regardless, this 5,000-square-foot home would be perfect for anyone with expensive taste. It was built in 1923 and currently boasts six bedrooms and seven bathrooms. Its selling point, however, may be the backyard with the patio. At the moment, Ivanka’s total fortune should be over $300 million.
Bob Dole – Undisclosed, Kansas
Born and brought up in Russel, Kansas, Bob Dole has been rooted in this state for as long as he can remember. It would have been unthinkable for the senator to settle anywhere except for Kansas!
While his current residence is unknown, he has lived almost his entire life at 1035 North Maple in his hometown, Russel. Considering the sentimental value that the town holds in the heart of the statesman, we assume that he shifted somewhere in Kansas itself, possibly someplace close to a church, reflecting his strong religious beliefs!
Adam Schiff – Undisclosed, Burbank
Adam Schiff has been a statesman all his life and has made some significant contributions during his tenures as a congressman. While the politician usually drowns himself into work, he spends his off-days in Burbank, where he owns a property. Needless to say, with a net worth of $143,6011, the congressman must have bought himself and his family a luxurious home.
Now that the Democrats have come back in power at Washington, Schiff would be consumed in work even more. Although, we hope this workaholic takes a break and gives us a tour of his mystery home soon!
Henry Kissinger – $7.9 Million, River House
Henry Kissinger sure has chosen just the perfect place to get away from the limelight and have a relaxing time. Nestled in River House, the politician bought an exquisite property, overlooking a river, for a mere price-tag of $7.9 million.
At such a steep value, the diplomat is now relishing in his 14-room apartment that has been decorated by someone with a keen eye for good art. Nothing else would explain the remarkable art pieces hanged all over the place. Plus, with the stainless-steel flooring in the living room, cleaning up must be a piece of cake for the statesman.
Sarah Palin - $1.695 Million, Arizona
Sarah Palin sure must live like a queen in her enormous mansion in Scottsdale, Arizona, a home that consists of all the hotel-like amenities! With an outdoor living area composed of a kitchen, a pool, and a spa, coupled with the desert landscape and a sports court, how Palin gets any work done in such a fantastic house is beyond us.
The interior of the property is as good as the exterior! This 6-bedrooms 7-bathroom house is enough to keep anyone occupied, no matter what their interests! Did we mention, it also comes with a bespoke wine cellar?
Mike Huckabee - $9.495 Million, Florida
The 6-bedroom and 7.5-bathroom property of Mike Huckabee has been the home of his family for a decade, and now alas, it has been put for sale. The former Governor of Arkansas bought this property in Florida when it was valued at $8.39 Million.
Huckabee loves the serene area of the real estate, and the amicable neighbors just serve as the cherry on the top! Featuring a pool and a spa, with an observation deck on the fourth-floor, bidding goodbye to this house would have been tough for the statesman. Nonetheless, we hope he has found solace to wherever in Arkansas he plans to move!
Al Franken – Undisclosed, Minnesota
Al Franken is a known name in the streets of the United States, for both the good and the bad. Naturally, now that he has retired from the political scene, we were curious to know where he is now and what the property is like!
While the exact whereabouts of the politician remains to be a mystery, we found out that he now lives in small-apartment just blocks away from his grandchildren’s place in Minnesota. However, the family of the former senator has been frequently sighted in the streets of Washington too!
Tammy Duckworth – Undisclosed, Minneapolis
Tammy Duckworth has to be one of the most decorated politicians in the United States. Having served in Army National Guard and then working as the United States from Illinois, she has earned an excellent reputation for herself!
But where does this fascinating woman spend her leisure days? While her precise location is still unknown, our investigation took us to Hoffman Estates, a rustic village in the suburban area of Illinois. After devoting her days and nights in Iraq during the war, the veteran would want to relax in a calm neighborhood, away from the hustle and bustle of the city!
Elizabeth Dole - Undisclosed, Salisbury
Former United States Senator Elizabeth Dole has been lucky enough to have lived in one of the most stunning houses of Salisbury. The politician grew up in this Tudor-Revival style property built by her parents with love in 1937.
This two-and-a-half-story building was designed and constructed by a prominent architect William H. Peeps and his talented team. There may have been some changes in the mansion according to time, including a master bedroom suite, yet, to date, most of its interiors remain true to the original design. The best parts of Dole's childhood villa are its decorative asymmetrical exteriors and the artistic-curved staircase!
Rand Paul - Undisclosed, Kentucky
The United States Senator, Rand Paul, knows how to live life king-size. Look at his classic colonial-style home in the Rivergreen community. This 4,206-square-feet property is located in a calm, peaceful area that is enveloped by nature and disconnected from the world!
The ophthalmologist's place has four bedrooms, three baths, and an indoor swimming pool. But that's not it! The estate has an adjacent man-made Sunfish Lake, which is filled with bluegills. This was the primary attraction for Rand and his family when they invested here. He is indeed a lucky man!
Lindsey Graham - $164,000, South Carolina
Lindsey Graham needs no introduction, and neither does his massive net worth. The Republican candidate likes to invest this wealth in real-estate. Out of the multiple properties he owns, his house in S.C. is the best example of the foreign policy specialist's elite status.
The ranch-style villa covers 1,901 square feet of land, which is appropriate for a single-family. The most attractive part of this mansion is how beautifully it is surrounded by woodlands and other mature trees. Constructed in 1989, Graham bought this beauty in 1993 and has been gracing it with his presence since then.
Mitt Romney - $15 Million, Deer Valley
Mitt Romney's property in Deer Valley provides a breathtaking view of the mountains, which spans over 13000 sq. ft. of land. The house receives enough sunlight to relax indoors on a bright sunny day or heated outdoor decks.
The apartment boasts six bedrooms, fire pits, a giant kitchen, a pond, and lush green trees planted by Romney himself. The former presidential candidate also thoroughly enjoyed decorating this house with furniture and elegant pieces of art. Given his hectic work schedule, it may be hard to imagine, but Mitt is a dedicated family man who doesn't compromise on quality time at home with family.
Newt Gingrich - $995,000, McLean
Considering how expensive properties are in McLean, VA, Newt Gingrich got a significantly cheaper deal on his house in this area. He sure needed the calmness this quiet neighborhood offered for focusing on his big political decisions from his home-office.
The magnificent mansion spans over 5,000 square feet of land and offers four baths, five bedrooms, and three stoned-fireplaces in a two-story building. The only thing this 1987 built humble abode lacks is a pool area, but luckily there is ample space in the backyard if Newt ever wants to expand.
Kristen Gillibrand - $312,260, Brunswick
Today, Kristen Gillibrand's humble abode values at $420,000, and trust us when we say that the estate is iconic and totally worth the price! One of the two major attractions of the house is that it's located in the proximity of her office, and secondly, it offers splendid picturesque views of rolling hills.
The senator purchased this marvelous property with her husband Jonathan Gillibrand in 2011 and grew from a family of two to four in this home. There are five-bedrooms, three bathrooms in this modern one-story building, with high ceilings and vast windows being its highlight!
Nikki Haley - $2.4 Million, South Carolina
Former States ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley purchased a gorgeous mansion on Kiawah Island in SC with her husband, Michael Haley, and it's the kind of estate that speaks volume about their high net worth and royal status!
There is ample space in the front yard and backyard, which makes it an idyllic place for small gatherings either under the cooling shadow of hundred years old oak trees or by the pool at the back. Besides stunning exteriors, the lovely abode offers the best of Mediterranean-style interior designs as well. The two-story building has high ceilings and large glass windows, making it a dream home for Nikki!
Tulsi Gabbard - $865000, Washington, D.C.
Former United States Representative Tulsi Gabbard is a real example of beauty with brains because not only has she taken intelligent steps as a leader, but even her personal life choices are impressive.
Tulsi has emerged as a real-estate tycoon as she keeps investing her massive wealth in iconic properties. Out of her several such endeavors, the politician's house in Washington hits the jackpot. She got this classic mansion in 2014 for $600K, and today its market value is estimated at nine hundred thousand dollars. Whoever said money can't buy happiness, should have a look at Tulsi's majestic bungalows!
Kamala Harris - Undisclosed, Washington D.C.
While the Vice President usually resides at the U.S. Naval Observatory, Kamala Harris and second-gentleman Doug Emhoff will have to wait until renovations there are complete.
But until then, the pair will be living large in Blair House, which is by no means a mediocre place to call home. With two kitchens, fourteen guest rooms, a salon, and eighteen full-time staff members, we reckon it's going to be hard for Doug and Kamala to bid this historic building farewell when the time eventually comes! Did we mention the library has more than a thousand five hundred books? Why would they want to reside anywhere else?
