Nicolas Cage Sells One, Many More To Go, Estate of the Day – LuxeCrunch | Luxury Lifestyle, Travel, Finance, Cars, Gadgets and News

The real estate habits of Nicolas Cage are legendary. He does more buying and selling in a year or two than most of us could do in a lifetime. In the U.S. he currently has three properties on the market but overseas he’s just sold one of his many homes. Cage bought the 11th-century Schloss Neidstein in 2006 for .3 million back in July 2006. It is believed that he spent millions in renovations on the 10-bedroom property which is on a hill and overlooks more than 395 acres of forest and meadows. But after all that work, Cage did what he always does, he moved on. The Telegraph says that Cage spent only one night in the castle.

Cage has a variety of properties up for sale from a million island in the Bahamas to homes in Nevada, California, Rhode Island and Louisiana. While I’ve covered the other three, I haven’t given the New Orleans, Louisiana house estate-of-the-day treatment yet. It seems a grave mistake on my part because it’s quite lovely. The Garden District home has six bedrooms and grounds that include a heated pool and statuary. Inside the home’s graceful lines, marble fireplaces, plasterwork, stained glass and curved staircase are elegantly preserved. The kitchen seems to be an overly modern off note but otherwise the home is beautiful and the rooms done in shades of periwinkle and pale blue are particularly winning. Cage bought in 2005 for .45 million and this home is now listed at .7 million.
