Paul McCartney’s Lavish Real Estate Holdings
Who hasn’t heard of the embittered divorce proceedings between Sir Paul McCartney and Heather Mills? Nastiness ensued as Mills asked for a healthy sum of money for her four years with the music icon (was it really only four years - it seems so much longer, doesn’t it). She was awarded less than one-fifth of her original settlement demands. During the divorce battles, though, tales of McCartney’s real estate holdings have been making the rounds.
According to This is London, McCartney’s properties span the globe. And as fabulously wealthy as Sir Paul is, these luxury properties are no slouches.
The properties This is London mentioned include:
A town house in upmarket St. John’s Wood (London)
A mid-town Manhattan apartment
A house on Long Island
A home in Beverly Hills
Peasmarsh, a 1500-acre estate in East Sussex, where he spent a lot of time with his beloved first wife, Linda
A country retreat in the Mull of Kintyre, Scotland
Additional homes in East Sussex, Essex, Somerset and Merseyside
There has been speculation on the ownership of the house in Beverly Hills. But some of Real Estalker’s sources insist that Sir Paul owns the place and it’s just in a trust in someone else’s name. (Apparently these days it’s not just all the gold in California that’s in Beverly Hills in somebody else’s name.) The obscenely rich Sir Paul intends to live quietly, though, spending much of his time at Peasmarsh or St. John’s Wood. Poor man. It seems he just can’t find the companionship he once had with his dear, departed Linda.

[...] busy drooling over the many properties of Paul McCartney, [...]
Didn’t Paul and Linda have a large farm outside Phoenix, Arizona? I remember driving across from California to Florida in 2005 and seeing a big sign off I-10 east, “McCartney Way”, presumably near their farm there. Maybe he sold it? It seems he doesn’t sell real property, which reflects his philosophy of being grounded in life. What a nice man for all his wealth and accomplishments, remaining as a great husband, father and friend if you’re lucky enough to know him.
I’m not sure, Jay. I didn’t see anything mentioned, but that doesn’t mean that he doesn’t have something there, possibly under someone else’s name, like his Beverly Hills estate is rumored to be.
Oh “sure” that’s Paul’s Rd. :))))) Would Paul like to attract attention to the place where he lives? I do not think so :)))People are such a morons!
