For the buyer whose ideal home should be next to a lot of water, Celine Dion outdid herself when she built her own water park on the beach in Jupiter, Florida. With at least an acre of swimming pools of all configurations, one can still step down to the beach for a saltwater swim or morning jog or relax on Celine's lazy river ride. Originally priced at $72 million, the oceanfront compound of a 10,000-square-foot main house, 7,000-square-foot finished basement, pool house, tennis court and house, beach and guest houses and water features is now listed at $62.5 million.

In New England, there's the old guard environment of Old Saybrook, Connecticut, on the banks of Long Island Sound where Katharine Hepburn made her home and where a lucky home buyer can watch the romantic Saybrook Breakwater Lighthouse flash at night for $14.8 million.
