Few couples combine star power, smarts, and style quite like George and Amal Clooney. George, 62, is an actor, director, and producer whose career has earned him two Oscars and, most recently, a Tony nomination for Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Play for Good Night, and Good Luck, along with decades of Hollywood acclaim. He’s dazzled audiences in cinematic landmarks including Ocean’s Eleven, Up in the Air, Michael Clayton, Gravity, and The Descendants, and has been a longtime brand ambassador for Omega, proving his wrist game is as strong as his acting chops.
Beyond the screen, the Oscar winner has built an equally impressive business empire. He co-founded Casamigos with friends Rande Gerber and Mike Meldman in 2013 and sold the tequila brand to Diageo four years later in a whopping $1 billion deal. Since then, Clooney and his Casamigos partners have reunited to launch a new non-alcoholic beer venture. He also runs his own production company, Smokehouse Pictures, and has secured major endorsement deals with brands like Nespresso and Fiat.
Amal, 46, is a human rights lawyer and barrister celebrated for defending freedom of speech, refugees, and international justice on the global stage. Married since 2014, the pair are parents to eight-year-old twins Ella and Alexander, and together they command a combined net worth estimated at around $550 million.
It’s no surprise that their accomplishments spill over into the spaces they call home. From the couple’s iconic Lake Como villa in Italy to a sprawling French country estate, a chic property along the River Thames in England, and multiple residences in New York City and Kentucky, the Clooneys have curated a truly global real estate portfolio worthy of their A-list status.
Their past homes are just as noteworthy. George sold his longtime Studio City residence in 2024 for $14.5 million to newlyweds Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffrey, ending an era. Meanwhile, a property he owned in Los Cabos, Mexico, alongside Gerber and Cindy Crawford, changed hands in 2015, proving that even his former escapes are high-profile.
Below, we’ve rounded up the Clooneys’ most notable residences—from the serene vineyards of France to the bustling streets of New York—offering a glimpse into how one of the world’s most celebrated couples chooses to live.

Italy
Image Credit: GIUSEPPE CACACE/AFP via Getty Images George first set his sights on Lake Como in the early 2000s, dropping millions to snag Villa Oleandra, an 18th-century residence in the tiny commune of Laglio on the lake’s western branch. Depending on who you ask, he paid somewhere between $7 million and $10 million, and the sprawling 25-room villa definitely needed some TLC when he bought it from the American Heinz family.
Over the years, George and Amal have expanded their Lake Como footprint by picking up adjacent properties, including Villa Margherita, turning the estate into one of the largest private compounds on the lake—now topping 100,000 square feet
The villa itself is a perfect mix of old-world charm and modern luxury. There’s an outdoor pool, tennis courts, a fully equipped gym, a home theater, a huge garage for George’s vintage motorcycles, and two boat docks. It’s also become a hotspot for A-list entertaining, with guests over the years including Jennifer Aniston, Matt Damon, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, Adam Sandler, and Laura Dern. And yes, parts of Ocean’s Twelve were filmed right on the property.
Villa Oleandra is more than just a glamorous getaway—it’s sentimental, too. It’s where George and Amal first met when his friend brought her by on their way to Cannes. And despite the occasional rumor about a $107 million sale, George has made it clear: the villa isn’t going anywhere.

U.K.
Image Credit: Teresa Dapp/picture alliance via Getty Images George and Amal purchased Aberdash House in 2014, shortly after their engagement. The 17th-century Georgian manor sits on a 5.5-acre private island in the quaint village of Sonning on the River Thames. Before the Clooneys acquired it, the property had reportedly been owned in the late 1990s by banker Omar Bayoumi, who was captivated by the exclusivity of the largest residential island in the Thames. Bayoumi modernized the estate with a gym, a spa complex, and an entertainment room outfitted with invisible speakers, along with 14 CCTV cameras.
Spanning roughly 8,948 square feet, the Grade II-listed home today features 10 bedrooms, eight full bathrooms, and two half baths, as well as Doric columns, mahogany parquet floors, and Georgian moldings. Accessible by boat or a discreet wooden bridge hidden behind electronically monitored gates, the secluded estate is designed for both leisure and entertaining. George and Amal added privacy trees, a pool house dubbed the “party zone,” a circular yoga studio, and a private boathouse, according to People. Inside, George has a “postwar study,” Amal enjoys a light-filled office with faux leather-bound research books, and the 16-seat screening room—complete with candy jars and a popcorn machine—is a family favorite.

New York City

Perched on one of the highest floors of a 63-story building designed by Foster + Partners, the unit is said to span 3,385 square feet with three bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms, loft-style ceilings, and expansive walls of windows. The location proved ideal for the couple, placing them near the United Nations, where Amal occasionally handled human rights cases, and Columbia Law School, where she was teaching at the time.
During his Broadway run in Good Night, and Good Luck, George reportedly stayed in a fully furnished apartment at the Mandarin Oriental Residences, Fifth Avenue, featuring two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Amenities in the ultra-luxury building include a rooftop pool with cabanas, a spa, a Technogym-equipped fitness center, a salon and yoga studio, as well as private treatment rooms where residents can receive services from celebrity facialist Ivan Pol.

France
Image Credit: Arnold Jerocki/Getty Images The Clooneys made France their primary residence in 2021, purchasing Domaine du Canadel, an 18th-century Provence wine estate, for €7 million ($8.3 million). Nestled in the village of Brignoles—just minutes from Brad Pitt’s Château Miraval and not far from George Lucas’s Château Marguï—the sprawling 425-acre property offers a 10,000-square-foot main house, olive groves, a lake, a boules pitch, a tennis court, and a pool.
The farmhouse itself was extensively remodeled in 1993 by Bruno Lafourcade, one of Southern France’s most sought-after restoration specialists, who preserved the estate’s original charm while modernizing it. Elsewhere, the formal gardens are decked out with lavender paths, terraces, and intimate sitting areas.
George has spoken candidly about raising their twins away from the glare of Hollywood, explaining to Esquire that life on a French farm offers a sense of normalcy and freedom from fame. Since settling in, the Clooneys have fully embraced the Provençal lifestyle, turning part of their estate into a working vineyard. The property includes a 25-acre vineyard and an additional 10 acres of vines planted two decades ago by winemaker Laurence Berlemont. Together, the Clooneys and Berlemont released their first white and rosé wines in spring 2024.

Kentucky

The actor has long kept ties to his home state and, according to reports, maintains a residence near his parents, Nick and Nina Clooney, who still live in Augusta.
Though the exact location of the couple’s Kentucky home remains private, and details about when they purchased it or how much they paid are unclear, George has spoken fondly about returning to farm life. In a February 2025 interview with the New York Times, he said, “Growing up in Kentucky, all I wanted to do was get away from a farm, get away from that life. Now I find myself back in that life. I drive a tractor and all those things. It’s the best chance of a normal life.”
The property is believed to be close to the family’s longtime hometown along the Ohio River, where George spent his formative years and still occasionally visits. For the actor who’s owned estates around the world—from Lake Como to Provence—Kentucky remains a reminder of where it all began.
