BILL COSBY – $225,000, PENNSYLVANIA
NET WORTH: $400 MILLION

Bill Cosby was a former comedian and actor most well-known for his work in The Cosby Show. At the peak of the series, he was named the world’s highest-paid television actor. His base salary was $1 million per episode, but his other income streams, such as production and syndication, totaled $4 million per episode.

In 1983, Cosby purchased a property located in Elkins Park, Pennsylvania, for $225,000. The 8,940-square-foot home lies on three acres of land hosting several auxiliary buildings. Built in the 1800s, it also features seven bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms. It has three fireplaces and has been upgraded with modern comforts such as central air. A gate blocks the driveway, and the estate is circled by mature trees and a wooden fence, serving as home security. Cosby and his wife Camille reportedly raised their five children at this residence.
