As Vice President of the United States, Kamala Harris and her husband, Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, are fortunate enough to call Number One Observatory Circle in Washington D.C. home.
Their 33-room official residence underwent renovations after the couple moved in back in April 2021, but before they relocated to the East Coast, Kamala and Doug lived in a stunning home in Brentwood, Los Angeles, which they are still believed to own.

Their 3,500-square-foot Brentwood estate is located ten minutes from the Getty Center and boasts four bedrooms, and five bathrooms, and features a private pool. According to Zillow, the home is now worth a whopping $5 million.

Gwyneth's 8,000-square-foot home also boasts high ceilings, a gourmet kitchen, wood-paneled walls, a built-in outdoor barbecue, and of course, horse stables. While the actress spends a lot of her time at her $5 million Montecito retreat, she is still reported to own her Brentwood home.

The 9,000-square-foot estate features round turret rooms, inglenook fireplaces, sweeping verandas, and even a heated pool. Seven vice presidents have lived in the home before Kamala and Doug moved in, and each has added their own personal touches to make the house their own.
During their own renovations – which took just over a year to complete – the couple incorporated elements of California, where Kamala served as attorney general and as a senator, and her cultural heritage as the first woman of color to hold the vice president title.

"It's an incredible honor," she told the publication. "The house is an architectural landmark. I love old homes and figuring out how to use them for a family with a modern lifestyle. That is what we did."
