ON THE MOVE

Trevor Noah Trevor Noah seems to favor the deluxe community of Bel Air. During the summer of 2021, he sold a home for $21.7 million that he had bought there two years before for $20.5 million. Then he purchased another Bel Air mansion at the end of 2021 for $27.5 million. The dramatic 11,000-square- foot residence was designed by architect Mark Rios, who named it Ledge House because of its hillside location. Influenced by Japanese design, Rios included six bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, an office, library, movie theatre, elevator, gym, spa, steam room, game room and infinity pool.

Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes

The 3900-square-foot, four-bedroom, four-bath residence, which sold for $4.9 million, is located on .30 acres in the trendy L.A. area of Los Feliz.
