Bruce Springsteen Is Known For His New Jersey Roots, But Where Does "The Boss" Live Now?

"In 1974 to '75, Springsteen rented the house at 7½ West End Court in Long Branch, New Jersey. The 1920-built cottage, which had two bedrooms and one bath, was where he wrote his third album, Born to Run-the work that would launch his career to national renown. Spanning 828 square feet, the diminutive house stands a block and a half from Long Branch Beach."

"Next, The Boss moved into a home in Holmdel, New Jersey. One appeal, according to The Bruce Springsteen Vault, was its seclusion: Springsteen and the E Street Band held daily band practice on the premises and didn't have to worry about making too much noise. The 6,000-square-foot farmhouse dated to the 19th century and had six bedrooms, two of which were used as offices for the musician's managers."

Bruce Springsteen remains closely tied to his New Jersey roots despite significant wealth and biopic attention. In 1974–75 he rented a small 1920-built cottage at 7½ West End Court in Long Branch, where he wrote Born to Run; the 828-square-foot house sits a block and a half from Long Branch Beach and marked his first time living on his own. Beginning in 1976 he rented a secluded 6,000-square-foot farmhouse in Holmdel on a 160-acre former cavalry property, where the E Street Band rehearsed daily and bedrooms served as managers' offices.
