What is a home if you don't enjoy living in it? Home is usually where the heart is and it's more than just the four painted walls. These Zimbabwean celebrities definitely put in a lot of work and 'moola' into building these mansions. 

Taking some time out at a luxurious resort sounds like a great escape from the tire of everyday life. For many celebrities, getting away does not mean jet setting off to an exotic undisclosed destination. Rather it has become simply about staying home. 

See how these celebrities live in their well deserved opulence. 

Tendai Mtawarira


International rugby sensation Tendai ‘Beast’ Mtawarira who has played for the ‘Sharks’ and ‘Springboks’, has earned a legendary status and announced his retirement this year. 

This remarkable player has been blessed with an incredible home. There are not many locations that can be enjoyed in retirement, like that of the Dolphin Coast in Kwa-Zulu Natal.

Tendai and Kuziva Mtawarira chose excellently in where to build their ultimate dream home. This opulent home was featured on ‘Top Billing’ and it boasts fine finishes, breathtaking views and an exquisite fire pit.

The luxurious fire pit was one of the more important aspects of the living space for Tendai. Setting the scene for many gatherings with friends and family, the fire pit creates an ambient and cosy place with comfortable seating to enjoy great company.

“When I engaged an architect to design my house, I made sure that he understood the way I live my life. I instructed him to study me from my choice of cars, to dress sense, to social interests and come up with something that depicts all these things. And the result was a 2 storey building of pure class,” Ginimbi revealed.
