For $20 million, you can buy your own endless Summer — and Matt Damon's Miami pad. Almost too good to be true, this waterfront home boasts over 12,000 square feet, not including the pool and guest house. Plus, with panoramic views, a swimming pool, and a private dock, it's quite the entertaining pad.

Many consider Billy Joel to be a quintessential New York music icon, so it isn't surprising that he lived and worked for many years in one of the most prestigious and one-of-a-kind Manhattan properties: the penthouse at 128 Central Park South. And, lucky us, we were invited by Trulia to visit this fabulous home that's currently on the market by its most recent owners for just under $12 million. The two level duplex with two bedrooms, a private gym, 2.5 bathrooms, 3 fireplaces and the rarest views of the city from its wrap-around terrace is no stranger to celebrities. Before Joel and his supermodel ex-wife Christie Brinkley owned the place, it had also been home to Ted Turner. And once you've seen the sights from this uptown residence, you'll realize why we had to share this house tour.
