Maggie Smith – $7.7 Million, Byfleet
Doesn’t Maggie Smith live at Hogwarts? Apparently not. The 85-year-old Downton Abbey star who is also famous as Professor McGonagall in the Harry Potter series lives in a 15th-century red-brick farmhouse in Pulborough, West Sussex. However, the photo above is not it.
The Byfleet Manor is her—or should we say Lady Violet Crawley’s residence on Downton Abbey. Located in Byfleet in Surrey, the estate belonged to the businesswoman Julie Hutton. She sold the 17th-century mansion in 2015 for £5.95 million, which converts to approximately $7.7 million in the present. Surrounded by 18 acres of green land, the 6,000-square-foot mansion is full of antique goodness on the inside.
