Editor’s note — 7 November 2026: This article has been fully rewritten using only verifiable facts from reputable reporting. Several claims in the earlier version have been corrected or removed. Zendaya is no longer “reportedly dating” Tom Holland — the couple got engaged between Christmas and New Year’s 2024, and Holland confirmed in a June 2026 Esquire interview that they had married in a private ceremony. The Brooklyn condo cost $4.9 million, not $5 million. The Encino estate sits on 3.72 acres with about 5,100 square feet, not four acres and 5,000 square feet, and the reported purchase price was $3.97 million. The London home was not bought together for £3 million in 2023 — the Richmond house was Tom Holland’s purchase in 2018 for about £2.5 million, and Zendaya moved in around 2023 after a long renovation. The contradictory net-worth figures ($20 million+ in one place, $30–40 million in another) and the unverified “$3.9 billion” film-gross claim have been removed. Most importantly, the old article missed Zendaya’s biggest property story entirely: her Hollywood Hills compound — a $6.5 million mid-century home bought in 2024 from Ashley Tisdale, plus the house next door bought in early 2026 for just over $2 million — which is now her main Los Angeles base.
Zendaya House is a story of patience. At 20, she bought a $1.4 million Mediterranean house in Northridge and kept it. At 23, she quietly added a $4 million ranch estate in Encino. Then came a Brooklyn waterfront condo, a house for her father, and — the move the old headlines missed — a $6.5 million Hollywood Hills compound that she is still expanding. She has never chased the biggest mansion in the room. Instead, she has built a portfolio of about $21 million at purchase prices, spread across Los Angeles, New York and London, and chosen privacy at every step. This is the full, verified story of where Zendaya lives now — and how she got there.
Who Is Zendaya?
Zendaya Maree Stoermer Coleman was born on 1 September 1996 in Oakland, California. Her father, Kazembe Ajamu Coleman, and her mother, Claire Stoermer, both worked in education and the arts, and she grew up around the California Shakespeare Theater, where her mother worked. She has five older half-siblings.
She started as a child model and backup dancer before landing her television debut on Disney Channel’s Shake It Up in 2010, playing Rocky Blue alongside Bella Thorne. The show ran for three seasons and made her a teen star. She then moved into film, playing MJ opposite Tom Holland in Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017), a role she has carried through the franchise, most recently in Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026).
Her career changed gear again with HBO’s Euphoria, in which she has played Rue Bennett since 2019. She won the Primetime Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series in 2020 — at 24, the youngest person ever to win the award — and won it again in 2022, becoming the first Black woman to win the award twice. Her film work since then includes Dune (2021), Dune: Part Two (2024) and the sports drama Challengers (2024), which she also produced. In 2026 she also appeared in Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey.
Alongside acting, she launched her own clothing line, Daya by Zendaya, in 2016, and has held major brand partnerships with Bulgari, Valentino and Lancôme. She has spoken openly about financial anxiety despite her success, telling British Vogue that she always feels she needs to keep working — a mindset that shows in her careful, unflashy property choices.
Where Does Zendaya Live Now?
Zendaya’s main home is now her Hollywood Hills compound in Los Angeles, which she has been building since 2024. She still owns her Encino estate and her first home in Northridge, and she keeps a condo in Brooklyn for East Coast work. Her other base is in London, where she lives with her husband, Tom Holland, in his renovated Richmond townhouse.
She and Holland met on the set of Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2016 and confirmed their relationship in 2021. Holland proposed between Christmas and New Year’s 2024 at one of Zendaya’s family homes, and she debuted her engagement ring — a roughly five-carat diamond — at the Golden Globes on 5 January 2025. In June 2026, Holland confirmed in an Esquire interview that the couple had married in a private ceremony, after AI-generated wedding photos circulated online. He would say only that his family had not been fooled by the fake pictures “because they were all there”. The couple keep the details of their private life to themselves, and the wedding date has not been made public.
The Hollywood Hills Compound: Her $6.5M Main Home
The centrepiece of Zendaya’s portfolio today is a mid-century modern home in the Hollywood Hills, which she bought in 2024 for about $6.5 million from fellow former Disney star Ashley Tisdale and her husband, composer Christopher French. Tisdale had bought the Nichols Canyon house in September 2022 for $6.15 million and listed it in mid-2024 for $6.799 million.
Built in 1948 and renovated over the years, the house measures about 4,114 square feet, with four bedrooms and six bathrooms, a separate guesthouse, a kidney-shaped swimming pool and Japanese-inspired gardens. An Architectural Digest home tour had previously shown off the house’s mid-century character. It is a very different kind of home from a new-build celebrity mansion: low, private and set into the hillside.
She liked it enough to expand. In early 2026 she bought the house immediately next door for just over $2 million — a 2,964-square-foot rustic-style property with four bedrooms and two bathrooms, described in its listing as a “diamond in the rough”, with original wood panelling. The two properties together create a combined estate of roughly half an acre, with the second home undergoing renovation. The aim is clear: a private compound in one of Los Angeles’s most competitive neighbourhoods, built for seclusion rather than show.
The Encino Estate: The $4M Ranch She Kept Quiet
Before the Hollywood Hills, Zendaya’s best-known home was her ranch-style estate on Oak View Drive in Encino, in the San Fernando Valley. She bought it in 2019 for a reported $3.97 million — usually rounded to $4 million — but the purchase only became public in April 2020, when Variety first reported it.
The house was built in 1939 and carries the character of a classic California ranch. It measures about 5,100 square feet, with six bedrooms and seven bathrooms, set on 3.72 acres with private hiking trails, a two-bedroom guesthouse and a large swimming pool. A long driveway and dense trees hide it from the street. Listing coverage described vaulted ceilings, French doors throughout, a gourmet kitchen and a primary suite with a balcony overlooking the grounds.
Encino sits about 20 miles north-west of downtown Los Angeles. It is known as a quieter, more residential part of the Valley, chosen by celebrities specifically because it offers space and privacy without being far from the studios. Zendaya has treated the Encino house partly as an investment: Variety reported that she listed it for rent at $12,900 a month, and she later took it off the market. She has not shared photos of its interior on social media.
Northridge: The First Home She Bought at 20
Zendaya made her first real estate purchase in 2016, when she was 20, paying $1.4 million for a Mediterranean-style home in Northridge, California. The 4,155-square-foot property has five bedrooms and five bathrooms, a gourmet chef’s kitchen, a pool and spa in the backyard, and a grand entryway with a spiral staircase.
The staircase was the selling point. In an interview with Teen Vogue she said: “I’ve always wanted stairs like this since I was a little girl. It’s like the Cinderella spiral staircase. I actually have one!” On Christmas Eve 2016 she posted a photo from the house, writing: “My first Christmas in my own home. I always wanted the big tree… and spiral staircase just never thought I’d have one of my own at 20.”
The house was her primary home for several years, and she gave fans a rare look inside it in a 2017 YouTube series, Cooking with the Colemans. She has kept the Northridge property ever since, rather than selling it when she upgraded — the first sign of the long-term approach that defines her whole portfolio.
Brooklyn: The $4.9M Quay Tower Condo
At the end of 2020, Zendaya expanded to the East Coast, buying a three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom condominium at Quay Tower in Brooklyn Heights for about $4.9 million. The building, on Brooklyn’s Pier 6, was designed by ODA Architects with interiors by Marmol Radziner. The apartment measures about 2,050 square feet, with wide oak plank floors, custom oak cabinetry and high-end Gaggenau appliances in the kitchen.
The biggest draw is the view: floor-to-ceiling windows look across the East River towards Manhattan, and a private elevator opens directly into the apartment. Residents also get a 24-hour attended lobby, a fitness centre, rooftop terraces and direct access to Brooklyn Bridge Park. Because Zendaya spends most of her time in Los Angeles and London, the condo has reportedly been rented out at times for around $16,000 a month. It remains part of her portfolio.
West Hills: The $1.9M Home for Her Father
In October 2022, Zendaya bought a home for her father, Kazembe Ajamu Coleman, paying $1.9 million for a five-bedroom house in West Hills, in the San Fernando Valley near Woodland Hills and Calabasas — not far from her own Encino estate. The 3,391-square-foot, two-storey Mediterranean-style house was built in 1997, with a white exterior, red tiled roof and arched windows. It had last sold in 2008 for $1.1 million and had been renovated since.
The purchase put her in the company of stars like Leonardo DiCaprio, Dwayne Johnson and Beyoncé, who have all bought homes for their parents. Zendaya had lived with either her father or her mother until recently, despite owning several homes of her own, and her parents — who divorced in 2016 — remain close.
Richmond, London: The Home She Shares with Tom Holland
Zendaya’s London base is the Richmond townhouse that Tom Holland bought in 2018 for about £2.5 million, before their relationship became public. The four-bedroom semi-detached Victorian house, in the south-west London neighbourhood near Kingston upon Thames where Holland grew up, went through a major renovation lasting roughly from 2020 to 2023. Zendaya moved in around 2023, once the work was complete.
After the renovation and extension, the three-storey house is now reported to have six bedrooms, a gym, a home cinema and an entertaining space, and is estimated to be worth around £4.5 million. The couple are often seen in the area with their black miniature schnauzer, Noon, walking in Richmond Park and shopping locally — a deliberately ordinary routine for two of the most famous young actors in the world.

What Zendaya’s Homes Show
Zendaya’s property story is unusually disciplined for a star of her size. She bought her first home at 20 and kept it. She upgraded to Encino without selling Northridge. She added a Brooklyn condo as a working base, a house for her father, and then — instead of a showpiece mansion — a 1948 mid-century house in the Hollywood Hills, which she is quietly turning into a private compound. Nothing in the portfolio is the most expensive option available to her, and that is the point: comfort, character and privacy come first.
