🌴 A Slice of Paradise: The Hawaii Ranch That Started It All
Located along the breathtaking Hamakua Coast, Barr’s sprawling estate features:
-
🌊 Panoramic ocean views
-
🌳 Over 4,000 macadamia trees
-
🏡 A 2,716m² luxury residence
-
🎨 Art studio, guesthouse, and greenhouse
-
🏊♀️ A pool with a waterslide and a bamboo-enclosed outdoor shower
Barr bought the property back in 2007 for $2.7 million, transforming it into a working macadamia nut farm and the filming location for her 2011 reality series Roseanne’s Nuts.
Although the show only lasted one season, the ranch became a beloved retreat — until now.
💬 “It’s Time for Someone Else to Enjoy It”
Barr, who’s since relocated to Texas Hill Country to be closer to family, told Robb Report:
“Hawaii will always hold a special place in my heart, but I’m getting too old to do as much as I used to. The land deserves someone with the energy to care for it.”
Listing agent Paul Stukin of Deep Blue HI said interest was immediate and international.
“We had buyers fly in from five states, the Neighbor Islands, and three European countries,” Stukin confirmed — calling it one of the most competitive luxury listings of the year.

🏠 The Making of a Real Estate Empire
Roseanne Barr’s property portfolio is nothing short of legendary. Over the decades, she’s bought, built, and sold a string of homes across the U.S. — each marking a new chapter in her rollercoaster life.
🏙️ California Royalty
During the height of her TV fame in the 1990s, Barr owned several iconic Southern California homes, including:
-
A Beverly Hills mansion sold in 2000 for $12.8 million to Samuel L. Jackson
-
A Rolling Hills estate purchased for $10M and sold for $12.5M just three years later
🌾 Midwest Mega-Mansion Dream
In the early 1990s, Barr and then-husband Tom Arnold began building what was meant to be Iowa’s largest home — a 28,000-square-foot estate with an indoor pool and private lake.
The project ended abruptly after their divorce in 1994, and the land was later donated to the Indian Hills Community College Foundation.

📉 From Cancel Culture to Comeback Queen
Barr’s Hollywood career took a sharp turn in 2018 after a controversial tweet led to the cancellation of her hit show Roseanne.
The show was swiftly rebranded as The Conners, continuing without her.
Despite the fallout, Barr didn’t disappear. She re-emerged with the 2023 comedy special Roseanne Barr: Cancel This! — a bold response to cancel culture that drew mixed but massive attention.
💎 Legacy of Resilience and Real Estate Success
From sitcom stardom to social controversy, Roseanne Barr has proven one thing: she knows how to turn reinvention into real estate gold.
With a career spanning four decades, Barr’s portfolio stands as a testament to financial savvy, bold risk-taking, and a flair for turning fame into long-term fortune.
As she enjoys her quieter Texas lifestyle, her Hawaii sale marks not just the end of an era — but another big win in her ongoing empire.
