 There are only so many different facets of your own personality. For a screen icon to philanthropic entrepreneur, Paul Newman lived an extraordinary life. Get ready to step inside the magnificent Connecticut home where the actor made memories for over 40 years with his wife Joanne Woodward and their daughters. This charming 10-acre estate oozes history, character, and old Hollywood charm across multiple buildings, including Newman's carriage house. Before we tour the legendary actor's home, let me give you a quick recap of Paul Newman's incredible life. Born in 1925 in Ohio, early life wasn't always easy for Newman. Newman actually began studying economics before World War II sidetracked his school plans. He served in the Navy then attended Ohio University, only to reportedly get expelled. Newman studied theater and landed his first Broadway role in 1953, before making his film debut in the Silver Chalice. Over the next 50 years, those famous blue eyes would melt hearts across classics like The Hustler, Coolhand Lou Gooch Cassidy, The Sundance Kid, and more. Alongside his acting career, Newman had a passion for racing fast cars. But it was his philanthropy and entrepreneurship that truly made a difference. In 1982, Newman launched Newman's Own Food Company, which has donated over $500 million to charity over the years. Paul Newman. What a guy. After meeting actress Joanne Woodward in 1953 while working on a Broadway play, the two Hollywood stars married in 1958. They remained by each other's side for 50 years until Newman's death from cancer in 2008. This brings us to Paul Newman's magnificent Connecticut home. The iconic couple spent over four decades of their lives together. Tucked away on 10 sprawling acres on North Avenue and Westport, the main residence is an anti-colonial salt box, built in 1763, known as the Ebenezer Coley House. Newman, Woodward, and their daughters called this place home for over 40 years, filling it with laughter, memories, and plenty of family dinners. The original salt box section maintains gorgeous original details, like brick fireplaces, beamed ceilings, and stone floors. Imagine Newman relaxing by the living room fire after a long day on set. A more modern wing was later added on by famed Hampton's architect Kirby Grimes, echoing the salt box style while expanding the home to over 6,400 square feet. A transitional space links old and new wings through seven sets of French doors that open to a wisteria-covered patio and pergola, perfect party spa. Inside the home has six bedrooms, 5.5-pops, and plenty of common areas decked out in Paul Newman's classic style. From the country kitchen, updated with modern appliances, to a quaint floral bedroom upstairs flooded with sunlight, even a family dining room warmed by a central fireplace. Every inch of this home hosted the Newman family's joy for over four decades. And the Aspetuck River winds right through the 10-acre grounds, crossed by a charming footbridge leading to an old waterfall. The rest of this magical Hollywood history-filled property includes a 1900s carriage house with three beds and two baths. And there is another guest cottage where Newman's mother-in-law once stayed. Property also has two antique barns, including one reimagined as a swanky studio space. Melissa Newman, daughter of the late actor and philanthropist, had fond memories of life in this home, including sledding down the hill with her siblings atop their father's back. After 40 years of monumental Hollywood success, memories were made in this house. Now the entire package can be bought as a whole for nearly $10 million, or in two parts, for $7.5 million for the main house and $2.4 million for the secondary house.

A lot of actors have become synonymous with Hollywood over the years, but few are quite as infamous as the one and only Marlon Brando. The late actor captivated movie-going audiences from the 50s all the way up to his death in 2004, ensuring he'll always be remembered as one of the all-time greats. But Brando didn't just work in Hollywood. He lived there for most of his professional life as well. One of the finest homes he ever owned on the California coast was a Hollywood Hills property he lived in back in the 1950s. A house he was so proud of, he became one of the first actors to ever provide the public with a tour via satellite link on the CBS talk show Person to Person in 1955. Known as the Laurel View Residence, this property is tucked right into the heart of Los Angeles, situated above Nicholas Canyon and boasting 270-degree jetliner views of the City of Angels. But this four-bed five-bath home is notable for more than just its views of esteemed properties nearby, like Frank Lloyd Wright's Stora Residence. It's also an architectural treat. Designed in 1926 by renowned architect A.F. Leashed, the home offers a relaxed quality with Spanish colonial styling. Outside, the mansion boasts unique circular tower structures and red-tile roof. Meanwhile, the inside of the 4,300-square-foot home features vaulted ceilings, expansive tiled floors, and sweeping staircases that give a theatrical vibe. Out front, a winding stone path leads directly to a heavy antique front door that opens onto a tiled front foyer with set of stairs that steps down to the informal living area featuring a dramatic fireplace. As you can probably tell from this space, the property was built for entertaining. And with Brando as its owner, you just know it's seen its fair share of Hollywood soirees. There is even a second living room located on the very bottom floor of the home with carpet floors, built-in shelving, white walls, and large gated doors that lead directly to the outside. Brando used to use this space as his own personal bongo studio. Away from the gathering spaces, the home's remodeled kitchen offers sleek white cupboards and subway tile backsplash as well as polished wooden work tops, stretching from one wall to the other. As for the nearby sunlit dining room, it's simply begging to be put to use and has enough room for close to a dozen guests. Rounding out the ground floor offerings is a stunning library with a ton of built-in shelves. Moving upstairs, the bedrooms are perfectly sized and drowning in luxury, striking just the right balance between coziness, warmth, glam, and minimalism. What's less minimal is the master suite, which features amazing views alongside a sunroom annex that you just know the former Don Corleone put to good use. There's also a detached two-car garage on the property. The one thing this home is missing is a swimming pool. If you're gonna buy this place, it's probably not to get a few laps in. It's to become part of Hollywood history and stand in the very room where Marlon once famously took a photo in 1955 while holding his first Oscar. So if you've got a little over $4 million to spare, why not consider this offer that seems too good to refuse? That last home might have been Marlon Brando's nicest in LA, but it was far from his only one. During the 1950s and 60s, he spent the majority of his time living in a home opposite of Universal Studios. Built in 1939 and designed by pioneering African-American architect Paul Revere Williams, this home in the San Fernando Valley is where Brando was living while shooting the wild ones and on the waterfront. Set on a triangular lot that's nearly an acre large, this gated estate includes a 5,000 square foot main house with 16 rooms, including six beds and five baths. Spread out across two levels, a couple of those bedrooms are large guest suites and there's also a family room to enjoy with a brick fireplace as well as a wall of windows that lead out to a Sunday. The kitchen decked out in cherry wood covers and built-in stainless steel appliances partnered with some hardwood floors. Just a couple steps away from there is the home's dining room with its low-hanging chandelier and picture frame windows. The home also includes a relatively small home office with a fireplace, as well as a comfy den with tile floors and French doors that lead directly to the backyard. The amenities out back include a pool, barbecues, sports courts and an expansive deck. Pretty nice spot, right? Well, as nice as it is, it isn't where Marlon would spend his final days. For that, we have to travel to another of his former homes located on Mulholland Drive, a 12-bedroom residence that was originally built in 1954 with three bedrooms and four baths in slightly more than 3,000 square feet of space. While living here, Marlon was next-door neighbors with Jack Nicholson and the street quickly earned the nickname of Bad Boy Drive. Nicholson and Brando would remain neighbors for over 30 years until Brando died at the age of 80. In a tribute for Rolling Stone magazine, Nicholson remembered Brando as not only his neighbor, but one of his closest friends, writing, Hell, he's Brando, but we shared more than a driveway. As a neighbor, he was perfect, a great guy who was always there for you. He liked his space and so do I, but as he put it many times, we'd always be watching each other's back. After Brando passed, Nicholson lived up to this promise by spending five million dollars to buy Marlon's former home. According to reports, Nicholson did so with the intention of passing it on to Brando's children. Despite having at least 11 kids, none of them wanted to hold on to the place. Once Nicholson discovered his friend's home was overrun with mold, he demolished the place instead and turned it into a garden of frangipani flowers in 2006. But there was one other residence that Brando would frequent towards the end of his life. His home in French Polynesia, which is exactly where we're going next. While filming Mutiny on the Bounty in early 1960s, Marlon Brando fell in love with two things. His female co-star, Tarita Terripaya, and the island of her birth, Tahiti. French Polynesias are renowned for its stunning beauty and after this pair was married, they purchased a small island just off the coast of Tahiti known as Titi Aroya. There, they built a small house and a hotel while having two children. As time passed, Marlon and his wife would separate in the property they shared felled into obscurity. While occasionally holding himself up on the island as a recluse in his later years, Brando would envision turning this spot into an eco-resort, a self-sustaining luxury environment for guests. He wouldn't get the chance to bring this idea to life, but his children would. In July of 2014, Brando's descendants renovated the entire property and transformed it into one of the world's most stunning luxury beach hotels known simply as the Brando. This resort uses sustainable energy systems such as salt, water, air conditioning, solar energy, organic gardens and so much more to leave as small and environmental impact as possible. What's more, there's also research facility on site with special accommodations for resident scientists. When it comes to your everyday guests, there are 31 bedroom villas to choose from all of which are very spacious over a thousand square feet of space. Each of these villas looks out onto the ocean and has its own private pool with a secluded beach area. With the Brando being all-inclusive, meals and drinks, including most alcohol is already taken care of and there's even 24-hour dining services available with delivery directly to your villa. Each guest receives a bicycle upon arrival to explore the island in a daily 50-minute massage. Each guest receives a bicycle upon arrival to explore the island in a daily 50-minute massage. There are also several water activities to participate in such as swimming to Mermaid Bay, snorkeling over reefs, stand-up paddle boarding and scuba diving. But if you prefer to stay on land, you can go for a hike, birdwatch or a search for turtles. If a little R&R is more of what you're after, then head over to the spa which is located in the heart of the jungle. Considering the natural beauty of the spa I'm kind of surprised Marlon Brando ever decided to leave and I wonder what he'd think of the place if he could see it now. One thing's for sure, whether it was in California or the Pacific, the man knew how to pick a beautiful home. Alright, that's going to bring this latest house tour to a close. Thanks so much for watching and before you head out consider answering the following question. If you could be next door neighbors with one world famous actor, who would it be?
