HollyNolly: Celine Dion puts her £18 million mansion up for sale... after 'she and her family only visited twice'

She may be one of the world’s richest singers.

But for Celine Dion it seems, is proof that money can’t always buy taste.

The French-Canadian star, who has a fortune of £250m, is selling her six-bedroom Montreal home at a price tag of £18m, along with every item of furniture.

Up for sale: Celine Dion's home is now on sale for £18,000,000 on LuxuryEstate.com

Somewhere to swim: The mansion even has a good-sized outdoor swimming pool

Built in the style of a French chateau, the 24,000sq ft property is located on its own island and comes complete with a home gym, panelled library and a vaulted stone wine cellar and tasting room.

The mansion has also been decked out with gold chandeliers and candelabras, and features regal-style furniture throughout.
It was designed by the 45-year-old singer and her 70-year-old husband Rene Angelil, in 2001, but the couple have decided to sell because they spend very little time there, and it was noted that Celine's family hardly ever visited - only twice in the last two years.

Joint decision: Rene Angelil and Celine Dion have decided to sell their Montreal mansion

Both Celine and her husband are said to have only visited twice in the last two years after the singer moved to Los Angeles when she signing a lucrative residency deal to perform at Caesar’s Palace hotel and casino in nearby Las Vegas.

Agents LuxuryEstate.com claim it is curently the most expensive celebrity house listed.
The website proudly reveals that the property has room to create a helipad to make the property accessible by air, while also emphasising the ‘classical interiors, eighteen-person dining room, sun rooms, games room, pool and majestic winding staircase.’

They describe the property, which has six bathrooms, as ‘a truly once-in-a-lifetime offering befitting the most discriminate buyer’.

Out of view from any public roads and completely fenced off from its surroundings, Canadian celebrities it might appeal to include Justin Bieber, Ryan Gosling, Ryan Reynolds, and Michael Buble.
Dion has sold over 200 million albums during her career, and is regularly named as one of the world’s top-earning music stars. Last year she is said to have earned £13m, and her Las Vegas shows are said to bring in £1.5m each night.

The singer married Angelil, who is also her manager, in 1994.

They first met in 1980, when she was 12 and he was 38. They began a relationship in 1987, and became engaged in 1991 and married on December 17, 1994. Together they have three children.
Earlier this month, the singer also put her £47m Florida mansion on the market. The 13-bedroom property on Jupiter Island comes complete with its own waterpark and also features its own lift through the middle of the mansion.
In addition, the property also includes an eight-bedroom guesthouse, a tennis house with a simulated golf range, a pool house and a beach house with a sleeping loft and massage room.
She and her husband created the property after buying two adjoining houses for £20m and knocking through to create a super-mansion.

At the time, neighbours were less than pleased with the development over the massive amount of water the park would use.

Joseph Montanaro, the agent for the property, explained that the singer had decided to build the water park because they found it difficult to visit theme parks with their children, Rene-Charles, 12, and two-year-old twins Eddy and Nelson, without being besieged by fans.
Miss Dion’s vast wealth has also been bolstered by the huge worldwide hit My Heart Will Go On, which featured as the theme tune to 1997 blockbuster, Titanic. Kate Winslet, who appeared in the film alongside Leonardo di Caprio, has said that the song made her feel like throwing up because she had heard it so many times.
