Celebrity Houses 2016: Properties with the Most Celebrities; What Features Attract Them

The "City of Angels" Los Angeles, CA is a home of property shopping celebrities that make security detail a big deal in home hunting. Recently, properties with views that are reachable by drones have become a major "no." With the existence of the technology, celebrities have been looking for backyards that have outdoor rooftops that can protect them from possible prying eyes. Aside from this, villages that have multiple entrances, hedges, and gates where their getaway cars could pass through unnoticed is becoming a major factor.

Panic rooms are also becoming a popular feature in celeb home hunting. This room is designed to become an escape place, should intruders get access to properties. Home gyms, on the other hand, is another must-have feature, so these people can do their routine workouts minus judgmental stares. Recently, celebrity agents are revealing that a doctor's chair is becoming a necessity too, so they can enjoy facial treatments such as Botox injections at home, without cameras following them, Forbes reported.

Privacy aside, these people are just like most ordinary citizens that celebrate even the simplest of perks. Property features like state of the art screening rooms without premium sound systems are popular. Equally sharing the spot are smarthouses with digital controls for water, light, and temperature controls.

There are Los Angeles neighborhoods, however, that are especially populated by the rich and the famous only. Hollywood Hills' Bird Street houses Eric Schmidt of Google, "Revenant" actor Leonardo DiCaprio, Dr. Dre, and "The Matrix" star Keanu Reeves.

Trousdale Estates, a modern mid-century home area in Beverly Hills, is haven to Courtney Cox, Jane Fonda, and Elton John; Jennifer Aniston also used to live there.

Pacific Palisades is also popular. Kate Hudson, Matt Damon, Steven Spielberg, Adam Sandler, and Tom Hanks have houses in this neighborhood. The Kardashians and Justin Bieber live in San Fernando Valley's Calabasas, Curbed reported.
