Prices have gone up since Sandra Bullock put Tybee Island on the map. In 2001 the actress spent more than $1 million to buy a modest three-story home on the north end of the island, plus empty lots on either side to protect her privacy. She also reportedly owns homes in Southern California; Jackson Hole, Wyo.; and Austin, Texas.
The Oscar-nominated Brokeback Mountain stars made headlines when they opted for a brownstone in a low-key Brooklyn neighborhood last year. The four-story house in Boerum Hill was built in 1860. Ledger, 26, and Williams, 25, reportedly bought it for about $3.5 million. Now they live there with their baby girl, conceived while shooting the film.
In 2001, the Material Girl went through yet another transformation, this time to lady of the English manor. She and her husband, film director Guy Ritchie, bought a 1,200-acre estate that once belonged to late photographer Cecil Beaton. The pop star learned how to fish, hunt and ride horses. This year, she said she would build a jumping course on the property, despite having taken a bad fall last August. The couple also owns a mansion in London.
