Jeff Bezos’s House: Unpacking the Multibillionaire’s More Than $700 Million Property Portfolio

Bezos scaled up his real estate portfolio with the purchase of Figure 2 Ranch, just north of Van Horn, Texas, in 2004. It’s unknown how much Bezos paid for the sprawling 30,000-acre property, which he bought from attorney Ronald Stasny, who reportedly spent millions renovating the gray stucco, one-story main house originally built in the 1920s. Stasny added a spa in the bathroom, remodeled the kitchen, updated the tile floors, and refinished the porches, he told The Wall Street Journal. Now dubbed Corn Ranch, this land serves as the base of operations for Blue Origin, the aerospace company that Bezos founded in 2000. The billionaire reportedly purchased the property in part because it reminded him of spending time on his grandfather’s ranch in Cotulla, Texas, as a child.

In December 2023, Bezos’s now-wife, Lauren Sánchez Bezos, gave Vogue a helicopter tour of the property, which the publication clocked at over 400,000 acres (it’s unclear when Bezos purchased more acreage). The feature mentioned a so-called 10,000-Year Clock, a subterranean structure built 500 feet underground. (“It represents thinking about the future,” Sánchez said.) The property also includes the Kármán Line Bar (so named for the boundary where Earth meets outer space), a ranch-style building converted into a bar decorated with space memorabilia. There is also a two-story primary residence with floor-to-ceiling windows, where Bezos and Sanchez’s blended modern family gathers for Thanksgiving. A swimming pool with a natural-inspired rock border and Corten steel ranch buildings are also found on the property, which the billionaire still owns.

Beverly Hills compound

The tech magnate then went to Beverly Hills, snapping up a Spanish-style mansion for $24.45 million in 2007. The property features a total of seven bedrooms and seven bathrooms spread across a nearly 12,000-square-foot main house and a separate guesthouse, as well as a greenhouse, a sunken tennis court, a swimming pool, a formal garden, and a six-car garage. Indoors, it hosts a dining room that seats 12, an indoor-outdoor bar, a game room, an attached guest apartment, and a kitchen with exposed beam ceilings and hand-painted tiles, according to the New York Post.

In 2017, Bezos purchased the house next door for $12.9 million. Spanning about 4,600 square feet, the 1956-built home hosts four bedrooms and six full bathrooms. Bezos still owns both of these properties.

Washington, DC, homes

Bezos made a big move to Washington, DC, in late 2016, snapping up two sprawling mansions, measuring a combined 27,000 square feet, for $23 million. Built in 1914, the massive pair of Georgian-style homes was previously the site of the Textile Museum and was recorded as one of the largest houses in all of DC. According to The Washington Post (which Bezos has owned since buying it for $250 million in 2013), the billionaire purchased the property with plans to convert the two adjacent structures into one single-family home. The pad holds 10 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms, The Wall Street Journal reports. In 2018, Bezos was reportedly planning a $12 million renovation on the place, including the addition of a “garden room” to one of the two structures. In 2020, he reportedly paid $5 million for the house across the street, adding an extra element of privacy to the massive mansion, which he still maintains.
