Kelly Clarkson House Toluca Lake (Current)
Looking for a change of scenery following her divorce, Kelly Clarkson purchased this stunning Toluca Lake, CA home for $5.4 million in 2021.
Built in 1036, the 4,946 square foot home sits on just over 1-acre of land and offers 5 bedrooms, each with ensuite, and 7 bathrooms.
The great room lives up to its name – providing a plethora of entertainment space, an elegant stone fireplace, and French doors that overlook the backyard.
Not far from the great room, you’ll find the chef’s kitchen with stainless appliances, double ovens, glass-front cabinetry, and a dark wood island with seating.
It seems having plenty of gorgeous dining spaces is priority for Clarkson and fam – in addition to two formal dining rooms, the residence also features a octagonal breakfast nook.
Okay, so prepare to meet the mother of all master suites – not only does this space have a stunning fireplace, but it also offers a sitting area, midnight kitchen, 2 walk-in closets, and an office.
If that’s not enough to impress, however, the suites ensuite bathroom is sure to do the trick with its large soaking tub and double vanity sinks. Can you say luxury?!
Upstairs, you’ll also find the children’s room. This is likely where Clarkson’s kiddos spend their time when at home.
Outside, you’ll find no shortage of fun in the sun by way of the home’s own private tennis court, basketball hoop, and swimming pool & spa.
If Clarkson ever needs the extra space for visiting family and friends, she can rest assured that she’ll have a beautiful 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom guest house with kitchen, living room, and dining spaces!
Kelly Clarkson Ranch Montana (Current)
Kelly Clarkson purchased this 14-acre MT ranch as a family getaway back in 2019 for $10.4 million. The property, known as Warren Peak Ranch, boasts several horse runs as well as tons of space for potential additions.
While most celebs typically go all out luxury for their big cabin homes, Kelly and fam had a more rustic vision for their Montana spread – this 1-room cabin!
While there’s no denying the space is a bit lacking on square footage, it seems Clarkson and her family always enjoy their time at the cabin.
At the back of the room, you’ll see Clarkson’s bed as well as two additional cots for her children and a small dining table.
In the front of the cabin, the space offers a bit of extra cozy rustic charm in the form of a wood burning fireplace as well as a small kitchenette.
And finally, as a means to pretty up the place a bit, Kelly has a large photo of Dolly Parton performing on stage adorning the wall. For anyone who didn’t see that epic Dolly Parton Kelly Clarkson duet that took place on The Kelly Clarkson Show recently, you can enjoy it here.
Following the split from Blackstock, Kelly Clarkson was originally granted sole ownership of the ranch (given that she purchased the property herself), but agreed to give her ex-husband 5.12% ownership of the ranch after disputing it in court. Blackstock was ordered to pay $81,000 per month in property fees.
Clarkson had reportedly considered selling the ranch following the breakup, but has continued to maintain ownership of the land as of 2023.
Kelly Clarkson House Los Angeles (Former)
Located in Encino, an upscale, celeb-filled neighborhood in San Fernando Valley, Kelly Clarkson paid $8.5 million for this farmhouse-style mansion back in 2018. The custom-built home boasts 8-bedrooms, 11-bathrooms, and 9,839 square feet of living space, which is actually a major downsize from her last pad (you’ll see what we mean here shortly).
The charming abode has tall ceilings as well as wood beams made from reclaimed wood, handcrafted vintage barn doors, and custom blended brick floors. A kitchen spacious enough to facilitate an island is typically what everyone wants, right? Well, it was definitely something miss Clarkson wanted, because she has not just one, but three islands in her kitchen (it’s okay, take a moment to reflect on that, drool over it a bit, we’ll wait).
If you’re feeling envious over the kitchen, however, then the master suite is sure to have you turning an even deeper shade of green, since the spacious sleeping quarters has its own lounge, fireplace, patio space, and even a walk-in closet with – get this – two freakin’ built-in islands!
Continuing the Kelly Clarkson house tour: Notable indoor amenities include a game room, gym, theater, and a temperature-controlled wine cellar. As for outside entertainment, there’s a swimming pool & spa, an outdoor kitchen complete with a pizza oven and warming drawer, a sunken lounge with two firepits, a built-in daybed, and even a 2-story guest house.
Update: Kelly listed this home in May 2020 for a staggering $9,995,000 – well over $1M more than she paid. Then, about a month later, in June 2020, we got some context as to why she listed it. She and her husband/manager announced their plans for a divorce.
Kelly finally sold her Los Angeles estate for $8.25 million in 2021.

Kelly Clarkson House Tennessee (Former)
Okay, so you remember how we said the new digs were a downsize from Kelly Clarkson house in Nashville? Well, here’s her former place – a 20,000 square-foot lakeside mega-mansion near Nashville, Tennessee. Located beside Old Hickory Lake on a peaceful cul-de-sac, Clarkson purchased the estate back in 2013 for $2.8 million and completely overhauled the place, adding in lots of custom touches to make it her own.
Kelly Clarkson house Nashville sits on 6 acres of land and comes with 7-bedrooms, 8-full bathrooms, and 3-half bathrooms. Those who enjoy a good “wow” factor in a home will likely love the grand entryway to the mansion as well as the elegant double staircases that lead up to the second level. Only adding to its appeal, the mansion is also filled with lots of amenities, including a billiards room with a wet bar, an elevator, a private dock, 2 spas, a saltwater pool, a sand volleyball court, a greenhouse, and even a child’s playground.
After deciding to relocate to Los Angeles, Clarkson put the opulent mansion on the market for $8.75 and then dropped the price down to $7.499 million after having no luck finding a buyer. She would go on to offload the home for $6.3 million in January, 2021.

Kelly Clarkson Hometown
Kelly Clarkson was born and raised in Fort Worth, Texas. Growing up, Clarkson was raised Southern Baptist and was even the youth group leader at her local church. Her singing talent was first noticed while she was in 7th grade at Pauline Hughes Middle School.
A choir teacher by the name of Cynthia Glenn heard Clarkson singing in the hallway of the school and asked her if she would audition for the school’s choir.
Kelly would go on to perform in various musicals, including Seven Brides for Seven Brothers and Annie Get Your Gun, all the while undergoing classical training in hopes that she may earn a scholarship through music, which she actually did.
Upon graduating high school, she was offered scholarships to the University of North Texas, the University of Texas at Austin, and Berklee College of Music, but Clarkson turned them down, later stating that she wanted to try and build a career on her own.
In 2001 Clarkson moved to Los Angeles with dreams of making it big in the music industry, but this didn’t come easy for the songstress since she was rejected by almost every big-name record label in the business.
After finding no luck in LA, Clarkson moved back to Burleson and worked odd jobs there to earn money until 2002, when her friends convinced her to try out for a new series titled American Idol: The Search for a Superstar, and (as we all know by now) she won and went on to have a more successful career in the music industry than any other Idol winner.
Kelly Clarkson Family
Clarkson’s early childhood family life was not easy, but the superstar singer persevered and went on to not only achieve her dreams but also create a wonderfully adorable family of her own. Here’s all we have on the Clarkson family!
Kelly Clarkson Husband
In June 2020, Kelly Clarkson filed for divorce from her husband of many years Brandon Blackstock, a music manager. They met back in 2006 while rehearsing for her performance at the American Country Music Awards that year.
At the time, Brandon’s father, Narvel Blackstock, was Clarkson’s manager. In a 2013 interview with People Magazine, Clarkson revealed that upon meeting Brandon for the first time, she just knew the two would end up together. Despite this revelation, however, they would not pursue a relationship until years later (since Blackstock was already married to Melissa Ashworth at the time).
In 2012, the pair would have yet another chance meeting at the Super Bowl – Kelly was going to perform the national anthem, while singer Blake Shelton was set to sing “America the Beautiful” and in attendance with him was his manager, a newly single Brandon Blackstock. Shortly after the two reconnected, they would go on a date. By 2012, the two were engaged and Brandon Blackstock had become Clarkson’s new manager.
In October of 2013, the couple wed at Blackberry Farm in Walland, Tennessee, and haven’t looked back since. Much of Kelly Clarkson wedding can be found online.
Fun fact: Kelly Clarkson’s husband Brandon Blackstock is actually the stepson of country star Reba McEntire! Brandon’s father and Reba we’re married from 1989-2015. Prior to her marriage to Blackstock, Kelly had even toured with McEntire and the two had been good friends long before becoming family.
So, for all of you writing in asking ‘are Reba and Kelly Clarkson related’ – there you go!
How many kids does Kelly Clarkson have?
Kelly Clarkson has 4 children total, two of which, Savannah (born 2002) and Seth (born 2006), are stepchildren from her husband’s previous marriage. The other two, River Rose Blackstone (born 2014) and Remington Alexander Blackstock (born 2016), are the children she had with Brandon.
Kelly Clarkson Mom
Jeanne Taylor is a former first grade English teacher and mother of Kelly Clarkson. Jeanne was married to Stephen Michael Clarkson, an engineer and father to her 3 children; Kelly, Jason, and Alyssa, until 1988 when the couple split. During the couples’ messy divorce, Jeanne’s daughter Alyssa went to live with her aunt and uncle, her son Jason went to stay with his father, and Kelly (6 years old at the time) stayed with her mother. Jeanne is now re-married to a man by the name of Jimmy Taylor.
A massive misconception that seems to be all over the internet is that Jeanne’s ex-husband, Stephen Clarkson, is actually Jeremy Clarkson from the hit BBC series Top Gear, but this is a completely different Clarkson we’re talking about and hopefully, the internet figures this out soon enough and correct this major oversight. #duh
Kelly Clarkson Brother & Sister
Since Jason moved in with his father after their parents’ divorce, he never really got to know his sister growing up. It wasn’t until Jason’s wedding in 2001 that the siblings reunited and formed a strong bond. Currently, Kelly, Jason, and their sister Alyssa are all closer than ever and making up for lost times.
