Property Guide: When Money is No Object
T
he Southern California lifestyle is one coveted by the rest of the world. Houses
that SoCal denizens call home both shape and reflect their owners' manner of
living. Among the most lavish residences in Orange County and Long Beach are
those owned by celebrities and moguls who have the capital to live in capital fashion.
Even though home ownership turnover has traditionally been greater among the rich
and famous than among the bourgeoisie, the sales of high-end homes currently are
awaiting a chance to rebound in the gradually reviving economy. For those seeking
a distinguished new home, it's not uncommon to find luxurious properties on the
market whose travertine floors have been trod upon by "who's-who" shoes. Although
the information that circulates about these residences is limited by confidentiality
agreements, the wow factor of the homes featured on the following pages is
blissfully unlimited.
