Now the New York Post is reporting that the tech mogul has scooped up yet another home: a 9,182-square-foot "French chateau" in Los Angeles' Holmby Hills neighborhood.
According to the Post, which cites unnamed sources, the seven-bedroom house once belonged to Veronique Peck, the late wife of Hollywood legend Gregory Peck.
And luckily for Schmidt (who's rumored to be a bit of a ladies' man), the chateau is about a five minutes' walk from the Playboy Mansion.
Schmidt reportedly spent $22 million on the purchase, which had been listed for $24.995 million with Coldwell Banker. That's a minuscule amount compared to his estimated net worth of $8.3 billion.
