Oprah Winfrey's Montecito, California, home comes in fourth at $101 million. Purchased in 2001, the 23,000-square-foot property sits on 66 acres. Montecito is a popular locale for luxury real estate, as evidenced by its multiple appearances on the list.

George Lucas's Skywalker Ranch holds the fifth position and the title of the largest property. Initially purchased in 1978, the ranch has expanded to 317,000 square feet on 4,700 acres – more than four times the size of Gates's estate.

George Clooney's Italian Lake Como mansion is sixth in price, sharing the $100 million price tag with Skywalker Ranch. Bought in 2002, the property, featured in "Ocean's Twelve," is a fraction of Clooney's $500 million net worth.

Tom Cruise's Colorado ranch claims ninth place at $59 million. One of the few non-California entries, the ranch spans 320 acres.
