Daniel Craig’s houses have been seeing more of him than they did in previous years. The English actor, who played James Bond in the wildly successful film franchise from 2006 until 2021, is more selective with work since welcoming a daughter with The Mummy star Rachel Weisz in 2018. “I’ve got a six-year-old at home,” Craig said in an interview with The New York Times in November. “And I don’t want to be away from home as much as I have in the past.”
Craig, who starred in the Rian Johnson whodunit Knives Out and most recently in Luca Guadagnino’s Queer, became a household name in 2006 with the release of his first Bond film, Casino Royale. “When I accepted the job to work on Bond, I genuinely did it to change my life. I knew that it would flip everything on its head,” Craig told Interview Magazine in 2007. “I can say, hand on heart, though, that I’ve never made movies for money—I’ve always made them because I’ve truly wanted to do them.”
With his lucrative stint as the iconic spy under his belt, Craig can afford to spend more time at home, whether it be in New York or London. Below, we round up the Skyfall star’s real estate portfolio.
Camden dwelling
Craig and his then girlfriend, film producer Satsuki Mitchell, bought a 4 million British pound ($5 million) home next to Regent’s Park in London’s Camden neighborhood in 2008, The Telegraph reported that October. Per the outlet, the Quantum Solace star had the interior of the dwelling completely renovated before moving in. It’s unclear exactly when Craig offloaded the home, but records show that Mitchell submitted an application to renovate a parking area for the home in 2010 and it last sold in 2011 for 4.05 million British pounds, so it seems likely that that was when the actor moved on.
Midtown rental
According to the New York Post, Craig rented a sky-high unit overlooking Central Park in Manhattan’s Park Imperial tower in 2009. The apartment, where Craig stayed while starring alongside Hugh Jackman in the Broadway play A Steady Rain, had three bedrooms and three bathrooms. While we couldn’t verify that Craig paid $38,000 a month to rent the space, as alleged by the Post, it’s safe to say he lived there for a time. Interior designer Jarret Yoshida decorated the apartment, per his online portfolio. Images show herringbone floors and floor-to-ceiling glass to take full advantage of the surrounding views of Central Park and the Manhattan skyline. Yoshia dressed the space with contemporary furnishings grouped to intentionally frame the cityscape, using the Japanese garden design concept of shakkei, or “borrowed scenery.”
Tribeca penthouse
In June 2010, Craig and Mitchell paid about $1.8 million for a penthouse duplex in Tribeca, according to public records. The Wall Street Journal reported that the couple paid cash to win a bidding war for the one-bedroom dwelling. It boasted 20-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass, and three terraces. “It’s a very Bond apartment,” listing agent Fredrik Eklund told the WSJ shortly before the deal closed. Craig and Mitchell were engaged at the time, but they broke up later that year. The modern abode, which records show was purchased in Mitchell’s name, was sold in 2015 for $2.9 million.
Victorian mansion in London
In 2011, Craig married Weisz in a quiet ceremony attended by just four people. He moved into her 3.3 million British pound ($4.2 million) four-story London home, where they currently reside with their six-year-old daughter, Grace. The five-bedroom Victorian terrace house is located in London’s Primrose Hill neighborhood and dates back to 1840. Reportedly, the couple submitted an application for permission to heavily renovate the historic abode in 2023. Replacing a “poorly constructed” 20th-century conservatory, relocating the kitchen, and adding a guest bathroom were listed among the submitted renovation plans.
East Village apartment
In need of a stateside home base, Craig and Weisz picked up a $6 million New York City condo in the East Village in 2012 after an extensive house hunt. Spanning 3,200 square feet, the 15th-floor dwelling hosted three bedrooms and an equal number of baths. A private elevator to the apartment opened into a foyer that led to a warehouse-esque 1,000-square-foot great room with an open floor plan, white painted floors, and exposed cement ceilings. Rows of picture windows throughout the apartment showed off the surrounding cityscape. A separate eat-in kitchen was lined with sleek stainless steel appliances and access to the largest of the pad’s three balconies, while the primary suite hosted a pair of spacious walk-in closets and an en suite bathroom lined with black marble and wood paneling, complete with a luxe-looking shower and a soaking tub.
The couple broke even when they sold the sprawling unit in 2019 for $6 million.
Brooklyn brownstone
The Glass Onion star kicked off 2018 with the purchase of a $6.75 million brownstone in Brooklyn’s Cobble Hill. The 1901-built house spans five stories and 6,600 square feet, making it one of the neighborhood’s largest homes, per listing details. With six bedrooms and five and a half baths, the couple have plenty of room to spread out. A fire damaged the structure in 2016, when it was under the ownership of novelist Martin Amis and his wife, Isabel Fonseca. As a result, it was stripped down to a “clean, blank slate” after extensive repair, so Craig and Weisz had free reign to customize it to their liking. An elevator, a roof deck, and a backyard garden and patio round out the amenities of the home.
Upstate getaway
If Craig and Weisz are in need of an escape from the city, they can head to their Ulster County, New York, estate, which Weisz bought in 2008 for about $2.1 million. The 124-acre plot hosts a Colonial stone house that dates back to 1785. Per listing details, the abode has four bedrooms and three bathrooms across about 2,500 square feet. Highlights include a double-height kitchen equipped with a fireplace, a library, and tons of original details. A Dutch barn and a pond are also found on the property.
