Tennis courts, water views, mansions, New York townhouses and penthouses. The IRL digs of the cast of Friends are a far cry from their characters who lived in rent-controlled apartments with roommates.
In reality, the property portfolios of the beloved stars from hit sitcom Friends – which aired from 1994 to 2004 – are a tad more luxurious.

Courteney Cox’s Malibu masterpiece
Courteney Cox certainly has left the life of Friends character Monica and her famous purple-themed apartment behind and had a bit of an upgrade.
The actor calls a 743sqm Malibu property, high above the beach, home today.
It boasts a swimming pool, some serious sun loungers, two acres of garden, tennis courts, stunning sea views and guest cottages.

Cox has shared many glimpses of the luxurious home on social media after she had some quite extensive renovation works completed on the property.
We love the neutral colour scheme and artwork on the walls. It looks like no detail has been spared with the interior design and decorating.

Aniston is no stranger to amazing properties. Before her current home she lived in a gorgeous place in Bel Air with ex-hubby Justin Theroux, which was sold after their split.

This current home was the first big reno project she has undertaken solo. She is said to have wanted to create a “Zen-like retreat” and a space that is good for entertaining as well.

Matt LeBlanc’s mysterious portfolio
“How you doing?” Well, it appears Matt LeBlanc, whose character, Joey, was famous for that line, is doing pretty good these days.
While there doesn’t seem to be as much property news confirmed about where LeBlanc currently lives as his castmates, reports do suggest he owns multiple properties.
Two are said to be just north of Pacific Palisades in Encino. Apparently he also owns a home just north of Santa Barbara in Santa Ynez Valley.
