Are you stalking me? Because that would be super! ~Ryan Reynolds
Ryan isn’t always sarcastic. We mean, he has to sleep too! The Hollywood megastar is always in his top wit game, spontaneity and quirkiness are something pretty much innate to this guy. Known for his master banter skills, Ryan Rodney Reynolds paved his way from auditioning a zillion times for the same role to charging USD 20 million for a single movie. The seasoned actor, now, is a recipient of an array of awards and recognitions, including the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He recently has been in the news for his ‘cute reaction’ to Blake Lively’s Met Gala 2022 attire. It just seems that fans cannot simply get enough of the actors’ persona.
Reynolds’ onscreen personality has always been wordplay and quips. Straight from Van Wilder to Deadpool, the actor keeps getting better at it. However, it would be fascinating to know that he surprisingly has a leaning for composure and equanimity. And even more surprising is that it is reflected in his choice of houses as well. All of Mr Reynolds’ abodes exhibit sophistication, peace and seclusion.
This article brings you a sneak peek into Ryan Reynolds’ houses that he has invested throughout his career.

Inside Deadpool’s Magnificent Homestead
Ryan and Blake’s new home is as much a mystery as the Green Lantern Corps in the DC Universe, owing to the secretiveness that the couple wanted to maintain. Everyone knows it exists besides its exact whereabouts. But thanks to the couple’s social media posts, we do know that they purchased their new mansion secretively in 2012 and moved out from their Pound Ridge mansion in late 2013. The star couple has since lived there with their three daughters, away from the paparazzi.
Rundown of Mr Reynolds’ House
Speaking of the property, it is about 4-5 miles further aside from their previous Pound Ridge home. This house cost them a whopping USD 5.7 million, but it was worth every penny as it is reported to be an old-school colonial-style mansion built way back in 1860. There have been massive modifications done ever since. The damnably large 8,892 square feet homestead sits on 11.65 acres of land with seven bedrooms, six bathrooms, and a guest house.
Rustic Interiors
The interiors of their home have only been accessible through some Instagram posts and interviews done by Ryan when he was locked in during the pandemic.
In a sneak peek of their house during what looked like a birthday party celebration, one can assume the space to be their dining room. There lays a swaggered wooden floor, bare pressed-brick walls, dark-framed windows and matching french doors. There appears to be a ligneous dining table with complementing wooden chairs.
Here the actor can be seen relaxing with the family pet dog. The image showcases a cosy interior with a white high chair, probably for the children, and a yellow lamp setting under a warm ambience, proliferating a rustic cottage-like sentiment. This is enhanced by the wooden flooring and the minimalist chairs.
Illustrious and Notable Neighbours
The Deadpool star’s new house is as extravagant as it is discreet. Ryan and Blake purchased their current home in the same neighbourhood as some other high-profile personalities, namely Martha Stewart, Glenn Close, and Ralph Lauren. Apart from them, the locals recount the star couple as extremely warm and peace-loving. This entire neighbourhood radiates an exquisite 19th-century idyllic country vibe, which is very sought after by locals and celebrities alike.
Catalogue of Ryan Reynolds Property Purchases
Ryan’s career was sky-rocketing since the early 2000s when he worked in some big production movies, including Van Wilder, The Proposal, and the X-Men Origins: Wolverine. It is not uncommon for such a big-shot actor to own luxurious home spaces to his name. The decorated Hollywood Walk of Famer has had a diverse real estate portfolio. Here is a walk-through of the properties he had invested in earlier.
Classic Sitcom Styled Vancouver Suburban Residence
When Ryan was still young and only beginning his acting career in 1991, he lived in his residence in Vancouver, British Columbia. It was a classic-looking suburban house with a beautiful stone fence. The double-story house was surrounded by a delightful backyard mesmerised with thick and lush hedges. The house was later sold in 1994 for 634,000 Canadian dollars, but god be witness, that house is currently valued at CAD 5 million.
A Sophisticated and Serene Bachelor Pad?
During his Van Wilder days, the actor got his definite break and worked pretty much in major productions. He rose from earning $150 a day to starring in a 20 million dollar box office hit. However, his movie persona of a party animal went against the tide when he purchased a classy little place with outdoor seating. It comprised an excellent view of Los Angeles and the canyons. The peaceful and relaxing homestead in the outpost estate included two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a dual-fireplace, hardwood floors, and an elegant patio that seamlessly blends with the ambience of the home space. The actor eventually sold the house for USD 1.5 million.
The Sensational Duo
A house, straight out of a dream that screams glamour from every nook and corner, perfectly exudes that it accommodates two of the hottest Hollywood actors. It was the time when Deadpool dated the Black Widow and the duo bought their house in West Hollywood for USD 3.6 million. It was a gorgeous voguish house with a fountain, a pool, a fire pit, an interior gym, and a heavenly view of Los Angeles. The residence was a masterpiece designed by Buff, Smith, and Hansmann, a world-renowned architectural firm. But unfortunately, time played its part, and the couple decided to go their separate ways. This property was subsequently sold thereafter.
Wait, Green Lantern Wasn’t Completely A Disaster!
With critics going haywire on the Green Lantern Movie, there was actually some good that came out of it. And it was the fact that Ryan Reynolds met his current wife Blake Lively, who was Ryan’s co-star in the DC comic-based flick. Blake had much in common with Ryan, including their aloofness to parties, dogs, and interior designs.
The Green Lantern Couple wanted to get away from the regular Hollywood hustle-n-bustle and lead a peaceful private life. They did manage to find the perfect getaway to hang loose with their children and pups. They purchased a house in the Pound Ridge area in New York, where many still believe they reside.
The house was worth USD 2.35 million and is spread across 2 acres with water frontage in an upscale private community in Bedford, New York. The estate spanned over 4753 square feet of concrete, comprising three bedrooms, five bathrooms and two guest rooms. The triple-story building stood high on a luscious landscape garden and rolling lawns. The property was eventually sold for USD 2.4 million in 2013 before the duo moved to their current abode.
Ryan Reynolds – A Prolific Businessman
You can fathom how much of a prolific businessman Ryan is by looking at some of the ventures he has been a part of. With his endeavours like ‘Mint Mobile’ and ‘Aviation Gin’, the actor produced some of the most creatively appreciative advertisements that immediately got people talking about the business. Some of his most successful ventures are as follows:
Promoting Chimichangas Just Got Real
The phrase “Maximum Efforts” got popular with the release of the Deadpool film series. It became a nominal reference and a marketing campaign slogan for the film production and digital marketing company “Maximum Efforts”. Ryan Reynolds became a strong motivation for the venture’s progression, where he created numerous ads too.
Let’s Get Drunk
From acquiring a stake in the firm to stating his interest in acting more than an owner and being proactive in the whole business venture, Aviation Gin has become the word in the street. Ryan Reynolds has a charismatic hold over his fandom that extends to an extreme where he can ignite a revolution. The actor has been engaged in developing various creative and humorous adverts for the brand. In 2020, the Portland, Oregon-based spirits distillery was sold to the British spirits giant Diageo for a mind-numbingly cool USD 610 million.
I Don’t Know About Telecom, But I Can Sell
The actor indulged in the brand, Mint Mobile, buying out a majority stake which not only increased their popularity but also led to a massive boost in sales and revenue. He became instrumental in influencing cost-efficient plans for the mobile top-ups, inspiring a considerable chunk of people to try them out. After acquiring an ownership stake, he is now a key representative of this brand.
The Much Needed Philanthropy
Ryan Reynolds and “It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia” star Rob McElhenney became the new owners of the fifth tier Welsh football club Wrexham FC. Ryan wanted to spread his business wings and buying the club became a double-edged sword as it was debt-ridden. Barring aside the venture capitalist move, the duo had four goals in their mind. To ensure the team plays well, promote synergy, usher in a new era, and reinforce team values to facilitate a brighter future for the club and its loyal fanbase. The ultimate goal is for Wrexham FC to play top-level English football.
Furthermore, Ryan finally revealed the real reason why he became the owner of Wrexham FC in his latest Welcome to Wrexham trailer, an upcoming documentary series. Apparently, it was the colour red. Like, Wrexham is red, Deadpool is red. It was a match made in heaven. His exact words, “that’s the real reason, sorry!”. The documentary series shows the struggles of the team and is scheduled to release on 24th August 2022 on Hulu.
Smart Mouth Ray Ray’s Ride Collection
With a net worth of over USD 150 million, it is a given that Canada’s friendly neighbourhood Deadpool would own some of the most luxurious automobiles imaginable. His garage includes:
- Toyota Prius
- Tesla Model S
- Lamborghini Aventador
- Cadillac Escalade
- Nissan Leaf
- Porsche 911 Carrera S
- Land Rover Range Rover
- Custom Triumph Thruxton
- Triumph New Speed Twin
Final Take – The Moment of Truth
In all honesty, if we have one word to describe our opinion of Ryan Reynolds’ real estate portfolio, we would say, ‘Total Respect’. Wait, that’s two words. We could do away with the “total”, but that diminishes our respect for his property collection. But seriously, whatever Ryan touches turns into gold. His aura accelerates the value of wherever he goes which is evident from his property resale worth and successful business ventures. Mr Reynolds knows when and where to invest, and he stops at nothing to find his dream home. After all, if there is one life lesson he taught us, it is “maximum efforts!”.
