She’s a woman who really needs no introduction, but we’ll take any opportunity we can to talk about the legendary Celine Dion. Let’s take a look at Celine Dion house portfolio, from Jupiter Florida and Las Vegas, as well as her own private island just outside of Quebec Canada.
Celine Dion House Florida
Ever imagine where would live if you were one of the highest-selling recording artists of all time? Whatever fantasy you’ve just dreamed up still couldn’t compete with Celine Dion’s extraordinary Florida estate. Celine Dion house Florida is about as angelic as her voice, and that’s saying something! Located in Hobe Sound Florida (just outside of Jupiter), Celine’s megawatt mansion is spectacular in every way. With a whopping 13 bedrooms and 14 bathrooms occupying the 18,800 square foot property, it seems more like a five-star hotel than a single-family home. In addition to the massive main residence, there are 5 additional pavilions including a guest house that sleeps 8 more than comfortably.
Celine and her late husband René Angélil spent $19.65 million on the property in two separate payments in 2005 and 2008 – and that doesn’t include the fortune it cost to construct the estate itself. Custom-built for the couple in 2010, the property boasts an impressive 5.7-acre lot and over 400 feet of ocean frontage. Celine Dion house Jupiter features an open floor plan with ample space for every room.
When it comes to amenities, Celine Dion knows how to crank up the level of luxury to the fullest. She has a tennis house leading up to a full tennis court, a simulated golf range, a pool house with its own kitchen and built-in outdoor grill, and a beach house that comes equipped with a second-floor loft and a massage room. Celine’s picturesque estate has three oversized pools on site – one in the backyard overlooking the Atlantic Ocean two connecting pools at the front that are part of an incredible private water park.
The giant pool system on the property reportedly uses an astonishing 500,000 gallons of water. A lazy river, water cannons, spiral slides, and a treehouse are just a few extra perks that Celine thought would be necessary for her outstanding outdoor oasis. This Bahamian-inspired home seems like the perfect warm-weather retreat! Who wouldn’t want a house with water park right in their own backyard?
Although Celine’s Florida estate provided several reasons to never leave, she first put the house up for sale in 2013 through International Realty for a whopping $72 million. It was then rumored to be sold for $38.5 million but that sale eventually fell through. In total, it sat on the market for four years, but don’t worry…Celine Dion has finally sold the house in 2017 for a cool $28 million – only a fraction of the original asking price. Oh yeah…and the house was also sold fully furnished. By now you’re probably wondering, “Why did Celine sell house Jupiter Florida?” and the answer is rather unfortunate. Celine’s husband René fell ill and spent his final years of life at their Jupiter island Florida estate. Celine likely associated her husband’s deteriorating health with the property and when René passed away in 2016, Celine could no longer see herself living there without him.
Celine Dion House Las Vegas
Dion has been a longtime staple of Sin City. With her record-breaking Las Vegas residency having run for sixteen years, it makes sense that Celine feels right at home when she’s there. She already owns a home in nearby Henderson, Nevada (more on that later) but in 2018 Celine decided to build a new family home for her and her children in the affluent Summerlin neighborhood. The home is said to feature 8 bedrooms, an underground garage that can fit 20 cars a separate living area on the property for Celine’s mother, Thérèse.
Celine Dion Private Island Quebec If you weren’t already blown away by Celine Dion’s luxury real estate investments, prepare to be amazed. She also once resided in a castle on a private island in Canada.
Located in Montreal Quebec, the Canadian crooner’s castle looks like it’s straight out of the Victorian era. It was custom built in 2001 for Céline and her family. The elaborate 24,000 square foot estate is built from stone with a slate roof and sits upon a private island that spans over 830,000 square feet. Visitors must pass through a gated bridge to access the island, which is completely fenced in for optimum privacy.
