Inside Jada and Will Smith’s houses: From the Calabasas mansion to Hawaii retreats

Take the tour of Jada and Will Smith’s houses: from Hawaii boltholes to their $42m Calabasas home, The Smith’s impressive property portfolio needs to be seen…

Will Smith has undoubte

dly had the Midas touch in his career, rolling from one Hollywood blockbuster to the next, with hits such as Aladdin making him one of the highest-paid actors in the world. But he also really has it sussed when it comes to real estate.

With a combined net worth of $320 million (£267m), we’d hardly expect Will and wife and fellow actor Jada Pinkett Smith to have a modest home, but their bulging property portfolio is impressive even for Tinseltown royalty.

Over the years, the pair have bought and sold an array of gorgeous homes, earning themselves quite a reputation in the industry.

Will and Jada’s property empire

Their luxury property journey began all the way back in 1998 when the pair snapped up a palatial 8,000-square-foot property in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, for $937,500 (£780k).

Will and Jada’s collection grew in 2003 when a family trust overseen by the Smiths purchased a five-bedroom, six-bathroom estate in the exclusive Hidden Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles for $3.4 million (£2.8m). Since 2017, the plush property has been home to the couple’s son Jaden.

A further dwelling in LA’s Woodland Hills was acquired by the trust back in 2011 for a relatively modest $910,000 (£757m), sparking rumors that the house was bought for family or staff.

Aloha! The couple buy in Hawaii

On sunnier shores, the couple’s real estate investment has included a couple of spectacular spots in Hawaii over the years too.

Their first property on the idyllic isle in 2009 was a lavish oceanfront home spread across seven acres. The deal made them a tidy profit, fetching $20 million (£16.7m) when it went up for sale in 2011; $6.5 million (£4.5m) more than they paid for it.

Meanwhile, their second tropical retreat, purchased in 2015, included four residences, a tennis court, a 50-foot swimming pool and a private access trail to the beach. The couple later sold the compound in 2017 for $12 million (£10m).

But mansions aren’t the full extent of the actor’s property empire…

Will’s custom RV

Will Smith reportedly commissioned a lavish motorhome worth $2.5 million (£2m) – a wise choice for a man who spends so much time on location. Nicknamed ‘The Heat’, he used the two-story land yacht while filming Men in Black IIIAli and The Pursuit of Happiness.

The seriously slick RV sits on 22 wheels, and has 1,200 square feet of accommodation, 14 TV screens, a 30-person cinema, 360-degree video surveillance, a dressing room and $30,000 (£25k) worth of leather!

The Calabasas estate

However, the place that Will, Jada and the family call ‘home sweet home’ is in the glitzy LA county neighborhood of Calabasas.

Their most extravagant investment to date, the sprawling $42-million (£35m) property offers a vast 25,000 square feet of living space, including nine bedrooms, a home theater, an eight-car garage and an outdoor pool.

The Smiths snapped up the ranch and began construction on their luxury compound in 2003, but it took seven years to complete the project, which both Will and Jada were heavily involved in.

The custom-built home isn’t short on luxury leisure facilities, with on-site basketball, tennis and volleyball courts, plus a sunken trampoline. Despite the opulent amenities, Will told Architectural Digest that his favorite spot is the peaceful gazebo at the heart of the estate’s secluded lake.

Let’s take a look and see why the Fresh Prince really is the king of his own castle…

Will Smith’s house has its own ZIP code

That’s right – if you own this amount of land then it’s only natural that you should have your own ZIP code. Well, how else will people know you’re rich?

In total, the estate spans an enormous 150 acres, offering the ultimate private retreat from the limelight.

A real family home

Despite the fact that the couple’s kids Trey, 26; Jaden, 21; and Willow, 18, have all grown up and flown the nest, the property is still a welcoming home where the clan hang out together regularly.

The family often post cute snaps of their life at the house, like this festive photo.
