When growing up, we often daydream about buying our first home and steadily climbing the rungs of the property ladder. But what if, at a very young age, you had access to millions of dollars that were burning a hole in your pocket? From Kylie Jenner's glamorous Tuscan villa, to Justin Bieber's lavish Calabasas crib, and Taylor Swift's elegant mid-century pile, these grown-up homes once belonged to the world's youngest (and wealthiest) celebrities. Ready yourself for some serious envy...

Despite only being 25 years old, Zendaya has already achieved more than most. The American actor and model rose to stardom at the age of 14, playing Rocky Blue in the Disney Channel sitcom Shake It Up. After staring as Anne in The Greatest Showman, Zendaya showed us a different side to her, playing the troubled Rue in the hugely successful HBO show, Euphoria, a role for which she won a history-making Emmy in 2020. Zendaya is now thought to be worth $15 million (£12.3m).

Four years before becoming the youngest person to win an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series, Zendaya purchased her very first home. The transaction took place in 2016, when the actor was just 19 years old, having just made her cinematic debut in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Using her chunky paycheck to snap up the home, the property can be found in the Los Angeles neighbourhood of Northridge and cost the star $1.4 million (£1.14m).

Boasting 4,155 square feet of inside space, the elegant Mediterranean-style villa features five bedrooms, five bathrooms and a stylish open-plan living area that's perfect for hosting. In March 2017, the actor took to her self-titled app to give fans an access-all-areas tour of her new digs. During the clip, Zendaya revealed that her favourite aspect of the house is the staircase, which she likened to a scene from Cinderella.

The grown-up residence comes with a spacious gourmet chef’s kitchen, complete with a central island and calacatta marble counters. There's also a formal dining room, lounge and office, as well as a luxe master bedroom with a fireplace and access to a private balcony. The princess-worthy suite also features a dressing room, a vanity area, and an opulent marble bathroom with a freestanding tub.

Built in 1977, the home beautifully blends contemporary touches with traditional décor; state-of-the-art recessed lighting sits alongside elegant arched windows and classic fireplaces. As well as a chic interior with plenty of attractive furnishings, the pad also comes complete with an ample garden, where a sunbathing deck, pool and spa can be found. In March 2020, Zendaya bought her second home, a multi-acre compound on a secluded Los Angeles estate, this time spending $4 million (£3.2m).

Selena Gomez's career began when she was just 10 years old, after she landed her on-screen debut in the iconic television series, Barney & Friends. With an impressive 19-year career already under her belt, it's no surprise that the young star has built up an impressive property portfolio, using her wealth to flip houses across Los Angeles. With 332 million Instagram followers and a back catalogue of top-selling albums, the 29-year-old is estimated to be worth a staggering $85 million (£69m).

In July 2011, around the time of her 19th birthday, Gomez forked out for her first home — a purchase that would kick-start her real estate enterprise. Located in the Tarzana area of California's San Fernando Valley, the property cost the 'Rare' singer just under $2.2 million (£1.8m). After purchasing the pad, she set about modernising its interior, opting for a sleek and simple colour scheme complemented by luxury fixtures.

Sitting on almost an acre of land, the luxurious gated home is nestled behind a row of trees, which would have provided plenty of privacy for the young star. Boasting five stunning bedrooms and eight contemporary bathrooms, the stylish house also features a bright, open-plan living space with a high coffered ceiling and plenty of glazing, allowing for sweeping views across the picturesque garden. 

Decked out with dark wooden floors, sleek modern fixtures and French doors, it would have been the ideal spot for Gomez to relax and unwind with friends. The perfect home to kick-start the teenage actor's property portfolio, the dwelling also has a media room, complete with a wet bar, pool table and a built-in TV, plus a swimming pool, yoga pavilion, full basketball court, outdoor kitchen and a cabana bar.

The master suite comes with its own ensuite bathroom and a cosy fireplace, while the singer's one-bedroom guesthouse, which boasts its very own entrance, would have been the perfect place for friends and family to stay. In 2014, Gomez placed her stunning starter home on the market for just under $3.5 million (£2.8m), eventually selling it on to another wealthy child star, Australian rapper Iggy Azalea, who would have been just 24 years old at the time.

Before JK Rowling’s best-selling Harry Potter books were adapted into blockbuster movies, the production team needed to find the perfect boy to play the iconic lead character. A then 11-year-old Daniel Radcliffe attended an open audition and the rest is history. Now one of the most recognisable and highest-paid actors of his generation, Radcliffe is thought to be worth a staggering $110 million (£90m), after making an average of $15 million (£12.3m) per Potter movie.

Using his newly acquired wealth, Radcliffe quickly began snapping up properties across New York City. As well as a townhouse in the West Village, which he bought at the age of 20 for a reported $5.7 million (£4.67m), the Harry Potter star also invested in a stylish two-bedroom condo in the heart of SoHo. Sleek and contemporary, the crib is something us mere muggles could only dream of...

The Woman In Black star bought the sophisticated pad in 2007 for $4.3 million (£3.5m), at the tender age of 18. Spanning 1,843 square feet, the property benefits from generously proportioned rooms, floor-to-ceiling windows and chic hardwood floors throughout. Full of contemporary magic, the apartment offers a light-filled, open-plan living room with a chic kitchen and cosy dining area.

The loft-style pad sits inside 40 Mercer Street, an impressive contemporary apartment block with glass walls and high-end communal facilities. Designed by architect Jean Nouvel in 2004, the building boasts a state-of-the-art gym and spa, a marble-lined swimming pool and a landscaped terrace, for the exclusive use of the lucky VIP residents.

Radcliffe's huge master bedroom is one of the apartment's best assets. Spacious and bright, the room comes with a reading nook with city views, and an enormous ensuite with dual sinks, a walk-in shower, and an impressive soaking tub. In 2015 Radcliffe placed the pad on the rental market for a cool $19,000 (£15.5k) per month and is thought to still own the stylish condo to this day.

At the age of just 26, Kendall Jenner has been in the limelight since she was a young girl. The iconic reality star first appeared on Keeping Up With the Kardashians in 2007, aged 12, before forging a modelling career that has seen her walk the iconic Victoria's Secret catwalk. The eldest daughter of Kris and Caitlyn Jenner, she has an estimated $45 million (£36.9m) in the bank and has flipped a number of properties across Los Angeles, including her West Hollywood starter home...

Kendall bought her first house in 2014, when she was just 18 years old. The model purchased the chic condo, located inside an exclusive high-rise apartment block in Westwood, Los Angeles, for a reported $1.4 million (£1.14m). The building had everything the young Kendall could need, including a 24-hour valet, a concierge and doorman, a heated swimming pool, a state-of-the-art fitness centre, a catering kitchen and wine storage — not that the model was old enough to partake in the latter...

With extensive windows, the 2,068-square-foot corner apartment would have offered Kendall bird's eye views across the city, providing an imposing welcome for her high-flying friends. With two contemporary bedrooms, three luxurious bathrooms, a bright open-plan lounge, dining area, a designer kitchen and office space, the cool condo had just enough space for the young socialite.

Offering a crisp colour scheme, modern furnishings, high ceilings and hardwood floors throughout, the property was well and truly fit for an up-and-coming supermodel. While the kitchen is kitted out with high-end Sub-Zero & Viking appliances, the master suite is an oasis of luxury, with a huge walk-in wardrobe and an envy-inducing ensuite.

In 2016, Kendal bought the West Hollywood home formerly owned by Emily Blunt and John Krasinski for a cool $6.5 million (£5.3m), before selling her starter home in 2017 for an estimated $1.6 million (£1.23m). The deal took place around the same time Forbes named her the world's highest-paid model, a crown Gisele Bündchen had worn since 2002. Just a year later, the model moved again, this time to an $8.6 million (£7m) mansion that once belonged to Charlie Sheen.

When your parents are megastars with $400 million (£328m) in the bank, buying yourself a beach house in Malibu might be less daunting than usual. Daughter of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith, Willow gained recognition at the tender age of seven, when she starred in I Am Legend alongside her father. Then, aged just 10, she released her first single, 'Whip My Hair', and has since produced three albums. Now, at just 21 years old, Willow Smith reportedly has wealth and assets of her own totalling $6 million (£4.92m). 

In September 2020, Willow bought her very first home in Malibu for $3.1 million (£2.54m). Perched on a stunning coastal lot with views of the Pacific Ocean, the property has plenty of wow-factor. A seriously sophisticated starter home, it was built in 2011 and includes eco features such as solar power, Tesla charging stations and a water recycling system.

Spread across 2,984 square feet, the single-storey house comes with two bedrooms and two bathrooms according to Realtor, although other sources claim it has four bedrooms, as well as ultra-contemporary living areas that seamlessly flow into one another. Walls of glass allow for unobstructed coastal views, while a stripped-back palette allows the colours of the surrounding landscape to do all the talking. 

The open-plan home boasts plenty of high-end touches, from hardwood flooring to statement fireplaces. As well as a stunning lounge, there's also a formal dining area and an eat-in kitchen. Outside, Willow has access to almost half an acre of land, with spaces to eat and relax on the waterfront.

Willow hasn't ventured too far from her family, though. Her superstar parents have lived in the same $42 million (£34m) mansion in Calabasas since 2010, while her older brother, Jaden Smith, currently resides in Hidden Hills, both of which are just 30 minutes' drive away.

From country music star to global pop sensation, Taylor Swift has come a long way in a very short amount of time. The singer's career began in 2006, when she released her self-titled debut album at the age of 16. Just 16 years later and Swift is considered one of the most successful musicians of all time, having won countless international awards and secured the highest-grossing tour in US history. Now, at the age of 32, Swift is thought to be worth $400 million (£328m).

In 2012, shortly after Swift released her fourth studio album, Red, the starlet bought this stunning mid-century modern home in Los Angeles, for $1.8 million (£1.5m). The singer, who was just 23 at the time, was no stranger to the real estate market. In fact, the historic home was her not her first purchase, having bought a Nashville apartment for nearly $2 million (£1.64m) in 2009 and a Cape Cod-style home in Beverly Hills, purchased in 2011 for $3.6 million (£2.9m). The generous star also picked up a $2.95 million (£2.4m) Nashville property in 2011 for her parents. Talk about model daughter.

The house dates back to 1959 and has all the characterful features of that hallowed architectural era. The dreamy home offers 3,000 square feet of inside space and is surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass windows, allowing for a seamless flow into the leafy backyard. According to the LA Times, it was reportedly used as a place for Taylor to host guests while she lived in another Beverly Hills residence.

The single-storey house would have been the perfect base for the star and her visitors; it features four bedrooms and five bathrooms, as well as open-plan living areas and a 1,000-bottle climate-controlled wine cellar. Among the period features are white painted beamed ceilings, elegant built-ins, sleek fireplaces and warm timber floors. Classic mid-century furnishings complement the home's sophisticated retro aesthetic.

The tranquil garden features a lagoon-style swimming pool, a decked patio and a central courtyard for cosy nights under the stars. Swift sold the mid-century home in 2018 for $2.7 million (£2.21m), making a nice profit from the sale. Between buying and selling the historic gem, the musician also purchased a $17.8 million (£14.6m) beach house in Rhode Island, two penthouse apartments in New York and a Cape Cod-inspired home for $25 million (£20.5m).

Known throughout the world, The Jonas Brothers started their careers back in 2005, when the youngest of the three siblings, Nick, was just 13 years old. Gaining popularity on the Disney Channel, their first single, 'Mandy', was released in December 2005 and reached number four in the US charts. After 17 years in the business and with five studio albums under their belts, Kevin, Joe and Nick are now thought to be worth a combined $150 million (£123m).

In June 2008, just weeks after the siblings released their third studio album, A Little Bit Longer, they clubbed together to buy their very first home. Located in the town of Westlake, Texas, the three brothers (then aged 21, 19 and 16) were reported to have granted power of attorney to their mother, Denise Jonas, who took on the responsibility of acquiring the house. Paying just $2.8 million (£2.29m) for the estate, the Jonas Brothers' starter home is anything but a first step, real estate-wise!

Covering an impressive 7,500 square feet, the house offered the boys six bedrooms and seven bathrooms, as well as plenty of communal space for entertaining, relaxing and jamming. Full of intricate woodwork, stone accents and elegant built-ins, the traditional-style home features a great room with hand-scraped hardwood floors, exposed ceiling beams and a dramatic centralised fireplace. 

Spread out over two floors, the property comes complete with luxury amenities that would have been perfect for the young brothers. There's a cool man cave with double French doors that leads out to the garden, a spacious music room, a home theatre and even a timber-lined office for storing all of their fan mail. No doubt the siblings fought over the master suite, a stunning space with a vaulted beamed ceiling and a huge ensuite bathroom.

Sitting inside an exclusive gated community away from prying eyes, the home features a covered patio with golf course views and a huge outdoor swimming pool complete with a diving board. The brothers put the property on the market in August 2014 for $3.4 million (£2.79m), before selling it a year later for a reported $2.8 million (£2.29m). Splitting the profit, the siblings went on to snap up their own individual show-stopping properties. 

Finding fame at the age of 14, Miley Cyrus has, like many child stars, been through her fair share of headline-grabbing dramas. From twerking on stage at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2013, to her countless risqué red carpet outfits, the 29-year-old has certainly come a long way since her Hannah Montana days. With several smash hit albums under her belt, the candid starlet is now worth a reported $160 million (£131m).

In 2015, when she was just 22 years old, Miley purchased her second home, after selling off the Toluca Lake estate where she spent her formative years. The property had been owned by the Cyrus family since May 2007, after they moved to the area when Miley was cast as Hannah Montana. Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus handed Miley the keys to the $5.9 million (£4.8m) home, but she parted with the property after numerous break-in attempts, using the cash to buy an equestrian ranch in Hidden Hills, California.

Miley paid just over $4 million (£3m) for the ranch, which was built in 1954. Spanning over five acres of land, the estate boasts a 6,500-square-foot home with seven bedrooms, six bathrooms and a loft-style great room. Outside, Miley also gained a 10-stall barn, two paddocks, a one-acre horse-riding arena, a swimming pool, an alfresco kitchen and a working vineyard. 

With towering cathedral ceilings decorated with exposed beams, elegant wide-plank wood floors, stone accent walls, and ample windows letting in plenty of natural light, the home was a mature choice for someone so young. The huge kitchen benefits from granite countertops and high-end stainless steel appliances, while the open-plan lounge has cosy spaces that are perfect for penning songs. The home also offers a 1,000-bottle wine cellar, where the singer no doubt stored her home-grown tipples.

A space fit for a pop princess, the master bedroom comes equipped with a stunning stone fireplace, a vaulted timber ceiling and French doors leading to a private garden patio. Miley parted with the ranch in 2018, just three years after purchasing it. She sold the estate for a reported $5 million (£4.1m), in a quick off-market deal, but the home certainly wasn't her last foray into real estate.

In 2019, at just 21 years old, Forbes revealed Kylie Jenner's net worth to be $1 billion (£762m), making her the world's youngest self-made billionaire and one of the world's wealthiest celebrities. The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star first rose to fame when she was just 10 years old and has earned her incredible fortune through endorsement deals and her line of cosmetics. Over the years, the reality star has snapped up her fair share of real estate, including her first home, which she bought when she was just 17.

For most of us, owning such a lavish pad seems like a mere pipe dream, yet Kylie Jenner snapped up the glamorous Tuscan villa in 2015, when she was still legally a minor. The teen star paid a reported $2.7 million (£2.21m) for the property, which can be found behind the coveted gates of The Oaks in Calabasas.

Spanning 5,121 square feet, the ultra-contemporary house was constructed in 2006 and meticulously reimagined by Kylie during her time there. Designed for both grand-scale entertaining and relaxing in privacy and comfort, it has five bedrooms, six full bathrooms, a media room and an attached guest cottage. The property also offered Kylie a dedicated office, where she no doubt got some serious business done!

The home’s glitzy interior is defined by high-end fixtures, statement furnishings and a bright-open concept floorplan. The living room sits at the heart of the home and boasts a two-storey ceiling, a white stone fireplace and a wall of French doors that open up to the swimming pool. There’s a gourmet chef’s kitchen with custom cabinetry and quartz countertops, as well as a stunning master suite with a walk-in wardrobe and a separate shoe closet, designed for storing Kylie's enviable collection of kicks.

Of course, Kylie also installed an ultra-luxe Glam Room, where she no doubt spent a lot of time. The vanity space comes kitted out with mirrored walls and custom drawers, as well as a champagne trolley. Outside, Kylie also benefited from a courtyard firepit, a barbeque, a heated pool, a spa, a three-car garage, and a 24-hour guard-gated entrance. In 2017, Kylie moved on from her starter home, selling it for almost $3.2 million (£2.62m). 

This successful child star has everything to smile about, with a wealth of Grammy awards (seven to be exact), multiple number one hit singles and even a Bond theme under her belt. The singer-songwriter is also inevitably worth a pretty penny, which she wisely invested in real estate in 2019 when she was just 17 years old.

But not just any real estate. In 2019, after making Forbes' 30 Under 30 list, the 'Bad Guy' singer bought the British singer, Leona Lewis’s former pad in Glendale, California. The 2,100 square-foot ranch estate was originally listed for $2.9 million (£2.2m) two years earlier, until Billie grabbed herself a bargain for $2.3 million (£1.7m). A steal for the young multi-millionaire.

Built in 1952, the sprawling equestrian estate has three bedrooms and three bedrooms filled with natural Californian light and contemporary decor twists. Foldaway glass doors can be found in many rooms, leading out onto the garden beyond. Perfect for entertaining those celebrity chums.

Alongside the main house, there is also a guest house, Baja sun deck and spa. However, we’re sure the singer was largely drawn to the estate's four horse stables, tack room, riding arena and fenced paddock as the huge horse fan she is, as well as the horsekeeper's apartment and goat pen!

Former owner, Leona Lewis reportedly made a lot of upgrades throughout the property since snapping it up in 2013, including a new kitchen with high-quality stainless appliances and white shaker cabinets. She also remodelled the swimming pool area by adding a sunken conversation pit with built-in bench seating

Now one of the biggest artists of all time, Justin Bieber's road to worldwide stardom has not been without its challenges. The musician was discovered at the age of 13, after he uploaded cover songs to YouTube. He quickly gained a recording contract and by 16, had a best-selling debut album. After a run-in with law enforcement in 2014, the 'Sorry' singer cleaned up his act and at the age of just 28 years old, is now thought to be worth a staggering $285 million (£233m).

While most people spend a couple of hundred thousand on their first home, the 'What Do You Mean' singer had a slightly bigger budget for his inaugural property purchase. In 2012, when he was just 18 years old, Bieber sealed the deal on this elegant Calabasas mansion, paying a reported $6.5 million (£5.3m) for the privilege. Located inside the city's exclusive gated community, The Oaks, down the street from Kylie Jenner, the private home was perfect for the rising star.

The custom Spanish estate was built in 2005 and spans an impressive 9,320 square feet. With six bedrooms, seven bathrooms and seemingly endless living spaces for work, rest and play, the property was certainly big enough for Bieber and his entire entourage. Far from being a childish pad where the youngster could hang out with his friends, the property offers a sophisticated aesthetic, with plenty of gorgeous Mediterranean touches throughout. 

With rustic decor including exposed beams and grand fireplaces, the house was a little more traditional in style than you might expect for such a young owner. It had a luxurious entrance foyer, a library, a movie theatre with stadium seating, a wet bar, a wine cellar, three garages, an elevator and a games room. There was also an outdoor swimming pool, a large sunbathing deck, an alfresco dining patio and expansive lawns.

In 2014, at the tender age of 20, Bieber sold the palatial pad to Khloé Kardashian for an estimated $7.2 million (£5.9m), who has since sold it on for a reported $15 million (£12.3m). The original sale took place after Bieber had a very public row with his neighbour. The 'Intentions' singer now lives in a colossal $25.8 million (£21m) Beverly Hills mansion with his wife, Hailey Bieber. 

Singer, actor and now producer, Hilary Duff has had career success since she shot to fame with her role as Lizzie McGuire in 2001. Winning multiple accolades including seven Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards and four Teen Choice Awards, the child star is now a mother of three whilst producing and starring in TV series, How I Met Your Father.

Now worth an impressive $25 million (£20.7m), the former child star knew where to invest her cash from an early age. Duff purchased this five-bedroom, six-bathroom Toluca Lake estate in July 2004 for $3.5 million (£2.9m) when she was just 17, before she could even legally order a cocktail.

The beautiful Mediterranean-style abode boasts plentiful open space and vaulted ceilings, with handsome beams and arched walkways connecting the grand living spaces. Situated in a prestigious neighbourhood behind a grand, secure gate the attractive celebrity residence is perfectly private.

Built in 1951, the Italian-style mansion spans 9.277 square feet of living space encompassing a whole host of luxury amenities including a library, billiard room, cognac room, wine cellar, gym, gift-wrapping room and this industrial chef’s kitchen fit for any VIP with black marble countertops and waterworks tiles.

Outside the nearly half-acre walled property, there is an outdoor living room and a beautiful swimming pool with spa. Duff sold the stunning estate in 2010 for slightly less than its asking price of $5.5 million (£4.57m) to designer Don Stanzione and Sheri Callan, owner of Callan Advertising, according to the LA Times.

This next star began her acting career at just seven years old, with a role in CBS crime drama The Guardian, before going on to star in blockbuster movies such as Kick Ass and The Equalizer, receiving four MTV Movie & TV Awards and two People's Choice Awards.

Worth $12 million (£9.9m), the busy actor found time to invest her hard-earned cash and became a homeowner in her teens. Moretz purchased this palatial pad in Studio City, California, paying $3.4 million (£2.8m) for the five-bed, six-bath house in 2016.

Spanning 5,592 square feet of living space, the two-story Spanish-style estate hides within a private cul-de-sac perfect for the privacy-loving star. Each room features soaring ceilings and large windows creating an abundance of light throughout.

Built in 1998, Chloe's first home featured a master suite with a private sitting room, fireplace and dual walk-in closets for good measure. An oversized master bath with a Jacuzzi tub and tumble-marbled accents is ideal for relaxing after a gruelling filming schedule.

For more pampered soaks, a lagoon-esque pool awaits outside complete with built-in barbecue, wood-burning fireplace, and multiple patios that can be found alongside an extra poolside property — perfect for guests or to use as a screening room for the actor and her friends to enjoy. We don't know about you, but we can't help but think we've taken the wrong career path...
