Angelina Jolie buys $40m Italian home

8th September 2010

(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have splashed out $40 million on a mansion in Italy.

The couple, who raise six children together, decided to buy their third home after Angelina fell in love with the country while shooting her movie The Tourist there earlier this year.

The 15-bedroom property is located in the northern Italian hills of Valpolicella and is 18,000 square feet. It boasts seven bathrooms, two swimming pools, a cinema, gym, stables, a vineyard and several Jacuzzis.

The Hollywood stars will keep the Italian mansion as their holiday house, and continue to use their $1.7 million mansion in Los Feliz, Los Angeles, as their main home.

Angelina and Brad also have a $3.5 million home in the French Quarter of New Orleans. The pair bought the property in 2007, while Brad was filming The Curious Case of Benjamin Button in the area.

Brad has been closely involved with New Orleans since Hurricane Katrina devastated the region. He set up the Make It Right Foundation in 2007 to help build affordable and environmentally friendly houses to help those who were left homeless by the natural disaster. (C) Cover Media
