Lauren Conrad – $1.35 Million, Beverly Hills

The reality TV star, author, and fashion designer Lauren Conrad is one of the celebrities who proves that not all wealthy people chase after expensive houses. She once lived in a humble yet stylish penthouse that she bought in 2012 for $1.35 million. Lauren renovated the 2-bedroom space, installing new HVCA, electrical, and plumbing systems. A walk around the place reveals that it is Pinterest-worthy with custom vintage-inspired décor and eclectic designs. Some of its highlights include details like a farmhouse sink, open shelving, and high-end appliances. After spending a few years in the unit, she decided to list it in 2015 with an asking price of $3.2 million.
