This massive compound belongs to actors Will Smith and Jada Pinkett. Although the family has owned many luxury homes over the years, this particular property has just gone through two years of major renovations.
He is without a doubt one of Hollywood’s biggest names, and his family is right there with him every step of the way. For Will Smith, it was only right to find a house that truly fits a man of his stature.
The Smith-Pinkett home was featured in Architectural Digest in September 2011, and it was the first time that the home saw major attention, although the attention certainly wasn’t anything new for the family.
Designed by architect Stephen Samuelson (with interiors handled by Judith Lance), the house is very earthy, with earth tones and simple colors throughout. Jada told Architectural Design that they “wanted to create a family retreat, something made by hand and as natural as possible, something that ties back to the land”. It’s also very open, as you can see from this pictures of the living room, which opens to the outside, encouraging the welcoming family feel that is so characteristic of the Smith-Pinkett household.

Will also told AD that in addition to what he and his wife had always wanted, he was inspired to build such house after working with Gene Hackman on the 1998 film Enemy of the State. Hackman owns an adobe-style home in Santa Fe, NM.
While some may find Will Smith and Jada Pinkett’s mansion comfortable, earthy, and homey, others may think it is, quite simply, too large. The home is set on 25,000 square feet, and is nestled atop a hill on a mind-blowing 150 acres. The ranch style estate worth nearly $20 million is situated in a secluded spot in the Santa Monica mountain range overlooking Malibu. Amenities include full size sport courts for basketball & tennis, a sand volleyball court, pool, batting cages, guest house, horse facilities, a private lake and gym all hidden behind a gated drive. Here’s a sneak preview of the Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Malibu house tour.
The pool was designed to look like a natural spring or a lake:

There’s no denying the home’s impact on the celebrity real estate market, just as there’s no denying that this family is and will be a Hollywood powerhouse for years to come.
