Home is Where the Ice Rink Is: Inside Michael Bublé’s $28 Million Burnaby Mega-Mansion

For global singing sensation Michael Bublé, who has charmed the world with his albums, including the perennial hit “Christmas,” true contentment lies not in Hollywood, but in his childhood hometown of Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. The Canadian crooner, along with his wife, Argentine actress Luisana Lopilato, and their four children, resides in a custom-built, luxury compound that is a proud symbol of his enduring local roots.

The Burnaby Landmark: Designed for Family and Hockey

Bublé’s private estate, which he refers to as his heart’s true home, is situated on Government Road, just across the street from the Seaforth Elementary school he attended as a child. This proximity highlights his commitment to a grounded family life, often seen doing the school run in the same neighborhood where he grew up.

Property & Financial Data:

• Size: The massive home spans approximately 12,000 square feet (though total finished space has been reported up to 27,000 sq. ft.), built on two consolidated lots.
• Amenities: It features a remarkable seven bedrooms and fifteen bathrooms, alongside a swimming pool and a tennis court.
• Value: As of early 2025, the property’s assessed value reached nearly $28 million, establishing it as the most expensive residential property in Burnaby.
• Privacy: The estate, completed around 2018, is protected by an eight-foot-high privacy wall, a feature that garnered local media attention during its construction.

The Secret Ice Rink

The mansion’s most unique amenity reflects Bublé’s lifelong obsession with ice hockey and his status as a major fan of the Vancouver Canucks. Tucked away in the basement is a secret, underground ice hockey rink, a space he proudly shared details of during interviews with personalities like Kelly Ripa. Bublé has previously co-owned the Vancouver Giants WHL team and famously said his lifelong dream was to play for the Canucks.

Family and Legacy

Bublé and Lopilato married in 2011 and are parents to four children: sons Noah (born 2013) and Elias (born 2016), and daughters Vida (born 2018) and Cielo (born 2022). Their eldest son, Noah, was diagnosed with liver cancer (hepatoblastoma) in 2016 but has since recovered, a personal event that saw Bublé and Lopilato put their careers on hold.

Despite his extensive global touring and multiple Grammy Awards, Bublé’s commitment to his roots remains a cornerstone of his persona and family life. His most recent studio album, “Higher,” was released in March 2022, further cementing his position in the global music landscape.
