American TV host Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi have acquired two adjacent plots of land in Santa Barbara County. The estate includes a Tuscan farmhouse-style mansion valued at $41.7 million, along with an adjoining 6.6-acre parcel priced at $28.2 million. With a total cost of $69.9 million, this sale sets a new record for the most expensive transaction in the county’s history.

DeGeneres acquired the 22-acre oceanfront property from a retired hedge fund manager who initially listed the home for over $100 million. Referred to as the ‘Sanctuary at Look Point,’ the property consists of three separate but adjacent lots on Padaro Lane.

Beyond the Tuscan-style mansion, the estate features another smaller home and a lake. Notably, the property offers direct beach access via a private trail.

Ellen DeGeneres is an American comedian, actress, and TV host. Her television career started in the 1980s before transitioning to the big screen with roles in films such as “The Love Letter” (1999), “Finding Nemo” (2003), and “Finding Dory” (2016).

Since 1994, she has hosted several talk shows, most notably the award-winning “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” on NBC.

This home marks the newest addition to Ellen DeGeneres’ real estate portfolio. The TV star is renowned for frequently flipping homes.

As of now, DeGeneres and de Rossi possess a $5.8 million cottage and a $14.3 million ranch in Montecito, California, as well as a $29 million home in Bel Air.

The primary residence draws inspiration from traditional Tuscan villas, featuring stone archways and bronze windows. Additionally, it boasts custom copper gutters imported from Italy.
