7 expensive things owned by Benedict 'Doctor Strange' Cumberbatch
What's the story
Oscar-nominated actor Benedict Cumberbatch needs no introduction.
The British actor, who sits on top of approximately $40 million net worth, earns not only through his acting outings, but also from endorsement deals, his production company SunnyMarch (founded in 2013), and voice-over projects.
Naturally, the 45-year-old spends a big portion of his wealth on properties as well as a fleet of luxurious cars.
We explore.
Number 1
The roughly $14.4 million priced California mansion tops the list
In 2015, Cumberbatch purchased a Mediterranean-style home for $14.4 million in Hidden Hills, California. The house spans over 14,829 sqft and consists of seven bedrooms, a home theater, 9.5 bathrooms, an outdoor pool, a private tennis court, a grand entrance, gym, bar, and a garage.
Whenever the British actor is in the US with his wife and kids, he prefers to spend time here.
Number 2
A North London home that he bought in 2015
2015 was when Cumberbatch got married and just a year before that, he won widespread acclaim for The Imitation Game.
Probably that's why he was in a mood to splurge, as, besides the US house, the actor also paid €2.7mn to buy a luxurious home in Camden, London that same year.
This extravagant property is a five-bed Victorian house and has ample ventilation.
Number 3
London property on rent that gives £3,350+ rent to Cumberbatch
Before shifting to his North London villa, Cumberbatch used to stay in Hampstead, another posh location in the UK capital.
The three-floor property has wooden flooring, three bedrooms, and a rooftop terrace that faces the south.
In 2018, he gave the property on rent for £3,358 per month.
The Victorian townhouse was earlier divided into two flats before the actor converted them into one.
Numbers 4, 5, 6, 7
His car collection includes Lamborghini, Jaguar, and Mercedes
Now, coming to his four-wheelers.
The actor owns a Jaguar F Type and XJ worth $1,03,200 and $96,674, respectively.
Next comes the Mercedes S500, a plug-in hybrid. Costing $120,000, the e-car achieves 0-100km/h speed in 5.2 seconds.
The Courier star also drives a Lamborghini URUS 4×4 worth $220,000, which has a top speed of 305km/h. It reaches the 0-100km/h speed in 3.6 seconds.
