When we think about celebrities, we know them as being famous for their skills and growing sizeable bank accounts, because they’re so in demand. This is certainly true for comedian and talk show host Ellen DeGeeres. She’s been around in Hollywood for decades, some of those years better than others. Still, once she got her own talk show, her name was solidified, and her super-celebrity status was achieved. She, and her wife, Portia de Rossi, have the best of the best in everything — from careers, status, and of course, homes.
According to Variety, Ellen and Portia are more than actors and comedians in terms of careers. Both of them have dipped into real estate — specifically buying up homes, fixing them up, and then selling them for a larger price tag. The publication reports they’ve done this on several occasions, so when one of their many properties ends up on the market, it’s likely a fancy home that would wow someone who had enough money to buy it—like their Montecito home.
The two have listed one of their properties in the “posh seaside enclave of Montecito.” This home was purchased in 2019 for $27 million, and after expanding the lot and doing a total makeover, they’re ready to sell it for a whopping $39.9 million. Looking through the photos of their newly-renovated mansion, it’s clear these two have an eye for what’s up and coming for the finer things in life. They’re sitting on a gorgeous piece of property—both inside and outside.
We’ve got the photos to prove it, so come take a tour of the $39.9 million Montecito abode, so come take a look.
