Millionaires Who Live in Surprisingly Small, Modest Homes
36. Tavi Gevinson
Net Worth: $7 million*
Purchased For: Unknown
Sq. Footage: 650-Square-Feet
Actress Tavi Gevinson has a one-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn that is as stylish as you might think. The apartment measures 650-square-feet, and Gevinson is, as you might imagine, renting it. She’s lived in Fort Greene for a year, and every piece of furniture and knick-knack in the apartment has its own story.
Not that we’d expect anything less than chic from Gevinson, who became semi-famous when she was twelve from her fashion blog called Style Rookie. Though her apartment has a lot of flare, many of the walls are kept white, in order to allow Gevinson’s “taste” in the things that she loves “come through” in the rest of the apartment.
37. Madonna
Net Worth: $850 million*

Popstar Madonna used to own a modest home in London with her now-ex-husband, Guy Ritchie. If you’re looking for a holiday, you’re in luck, as that abode is now a $700-per-night holiday rental. The Georgian home is more modest than expected from a star like Madonna, as it has two bedrooms and two bathrooms only.
The location is what makes this home a winner, as it is nestled on a quiet, peaceful street in Kensington. Madonna isn’t the only celebrity to have spent time in the digs, as Guy Ritchie shot scenes of his movie, Layer Cake, starring Daniel Craig and Sienna Miller, on the property. That’s probably why the rental price is so high.
