Celebrity Real Estate: Shirley MacLaine, Megan Fox, Akon

Shirley MacLaine Coming to 'Terms' With Her NM Estate

With a bent for all things New Age, Shirley MacLaine is looking for new signs of life outside of Santa Fe.

The decorated actress, at age 80, is parting with her beloved Plaza Blanca Ranch in Abiquiu, the New Mexico town where another great American artist, Georgia O'Keefe, spent her later years drawing inspiration from the high desert light.

Unlike O'Keefe, who spent her 90's in Abiquiu, MacLaine wants to move into town. She has listed the whopping 7,450-acre property for $18 million – a price she said came to her following a consultation with a psychic.

The estate includes an adobe-style main house, a yurt, caretaker's house, swimming pool, horse barn and chicken coop — all of it off-the-grid and sustainable, with greenhouses for growing food.

MacLaine has always said that the ranch was a spiritual retreat for her, but she's now looking for a less reclusive place to hang her auras.

Buyer Found for Megan Fox's Family Home

Megan Fox, the actress known for "Transformers," and her husband Brian Austin Green, best known for playing David Silver on "Beverly Hills, 90210," are looking for a new home. The couple, along with their two-year-old son and new baby, as well as Green's son from a previous marriage, will need plenty of play room.

While they look for the perfect new house, the couple has sold their Los Angeles Mediterranean at 2271 Glendower Ave. And home it was for the pair, who had transformed it from being "very vanilla" according to the listing agent when they purchased it in 2009, into a bold, modern abode. It features large-scale wallpaper in many rooms, as well as colorful and patterned tiles in the kitchen and bathroom. The young pair also had the home fully updated with projection screens, a sound system and a home security system.

The 4-bedroom, 5-bathroom house is listed for $3.995 million.

Akon's Home of Some Heavenly Sounds For Sale

Akon is a five-time Grammy winner, but when he's not in the studio, the rapper and music producer is hitting some high notes on home styling.

"Lifted. Inspired. Alive. Music, the muse, beckons. The sound. The soul. The studio. This is Heaven," the listing description states.

Akon poured some heart and soul into an extensive "white-out" remodel after he bought the place last September for $1.9 million. Now someone has offered to purchase the heavenly abode.

In other words, Akon made everything bright white in the 4,098-square-foot home, including the interior and exterior walls, the furniture, patio, pool, floors, railings and accessories.

The home had been listed $3.5 million, but for $4 million, Akon said he would throw in the recording studio equipment and all the (white) furniture.
