Now let's get into this video. Just for a bit of a background, Lewis is quite a property collector at the highest level. Over the years, the world-class racer has snagged a portfolio of opulent homes across the globe's fanciest capitals. He is the proud owner of a luxury apartment in Geneva, Switzerland, and while we don't have photos of the place, it sounds very impressive. Situated above a six-level structure in Lund's village Nyon, several racing drivers are rumoured to own apartments here from Michael Schumacher to Fernando Alonso and more. Lewis' charming Geneva abode boasts two spacious bedrooms and an amazing view of Geneva Lake along with a warm and welcoming living room. There's also a fully equipped kitchen and massive bathroom. The place also offers a small gym with all the state-of-the-art facilities you'd need for top-level training, while the building is located in an upscale area of Geneva where the F1 star allows to hang out. Moving across the map a little bit, one of Lewis' most luxurious residences is located in Kensington, West London, which is a sprawling mansion rumoured to be worth $25 million. The former owner of the lavish crib was Burberry chief designer Christopher Bailey, while back in 1860 when the home was built, Samuel Johns was a leading architect, so this place definitely has some history. Lewis bought the home in 2017 and it comes with 6 fancy bedrooms, 4 reception rooms, and 2 huge bathrooms. We also know this home has a massive kitchen and dining room for entertaining guests, along with a whopping 4 floors, and there's even a 200 foot green garden with a posh summer house. If that's not enough, there are a handful of guest quarters on the property too. Many F1 drivers also love spending time in Monaco, and Lewis is no different. His upscale apartment is in the elite Fontvielle district, which boasts a population of only about 3,000 people. It's located in a northern part of the small country of Monaco, and the 27-floor building was designed by renowned architect Gio Ponti, with Lewis' unit being one of the nicest ones of them all. According to reports, the star racer spent an estimated 15 million dollars on this property, which boasts 5 bedrooms and 4 baths, over 6,500 square feet of space. His Monaco getaway also offers a 300 square foot terrace and elsewhere a steam room. Some of the amenities in this building include a heated swimming pool, a full fitness center, and a miniature park. Not to mention, security is foolproof. Apparently when Lewis is staying here, he spends most of his time at the gym and the sauna. Now for the final attraction, Lewis' amazing New York City real estate. The star not only loves Europe, but also has an affinity towards America, especially the Big Apple where he's owned two properties. He bought this first apartment back in 2017, located in the trendy Tribeca neighborhood of Manhattan for 44 million dollars. The insane 3-floor apartment offers over 12,000 square feet of living space along with 6 bedrooms and 6 baths. Other features include a fully stocked chef's kitchen, private elevator right to the unit, as well as soaring 20 foot tall ceilings. This building used to be a bookbinding factory before it was transformed into one of the most in-demand spots in NYC to live. Lewis' unit also boasts access to a 70 foot swimming pool, a gym, Turkish bath, courtyard, and lounge area. Oh, and he also has two private parking spots, which is a luxury in this city. Despite the beauty of this home, Lewis just sold it in December 2021 for a crazy 49.5 million dollars, banking about 5.6 million dollars in the process for himself. Whoever bought the crib will be surrounded by other celebrities, including Justin, Timberlake and Jessica Biel, and even Harry Styles, just to name a few famous faces who also live in this building. Now before you think Lewis is leaving New York City for good, that's not the case. In 2019, he spent over 43 million on a Manhattan penthouse that's part of a condo project partly owned by NFL star Tom Brady and his wife Gisele Bündchen. This stunning spread covers 6,547 square feet of space throughout, and the amazing master suite boasts views of the Hudson River. Just look at how great those are. The kitchen is modern and spacious, stacked with expensive appliances and plenty of room to entertain, including a sunny breakfast nook. There's also an open plan living area with a ton of windows showing the same amazing views. If that's not enough, Lewis can also enjoy a cozy library, huge and private outdoor area, as well as a wine cellar. In the building itself, residents have access to amenities such as a swimming pool, fitness center, squash court, and more. Neighbours include the likes of Jennifer Lawrence and Mike Myers here.
