Ellen Degeneres lists $34 million beachfront property
Ellen Degeneres is known for many things: a comedian, actress, LGBTI advocate and wildlife protector.
But Degeneres is also a notorious property flipper.
Now, she and wife, actress Portia de Rossi have dropped another property on the market. As Variety reported, the US$24 million (AU$34 million) California beachfront property recently hit the market for 29 per cent more than its previous US$18.6 million sale price.
Described as “chic, contemporary and coastal”, the home has four bedrooms and four bathrooms.
Sweeping ocean views combine with open plan living, while fireplaces beckon for the colder months.
“For a fabled few, this prime location is a gateway to the California dream,” Compass broker Suzanne Perkins and Riskin Partners Group at Village Properties described.
“Imagine your morning lattes with sandy toes, briny afternoon sun salutations and evenings spent watching the sun make her somnolent journey across the sky.
“This oceanfront estate is an incredible place for everything from quiet moments of contemplation to grand celebrations of life’s milestones.”
The property lies on 1.1 acres, with uninterrupted sightlines and the ocean visible from most rooms.
The Carpinteria home also features a seaside deck.
Alternatively, the new owners can sit on the private rooftop patio, or enjoy the fireplace inside the enclosed courtyard.
“The skillfully designed kitchen, with Bulthaup cabinetry and professional appliances, is a perfect place to prep, create, sip and delight,” the listing description continues.
The master suite takes up the entire second floor and comes with a fireplace and a spa-like bath.
And if you feel like some exercise, the home comes with a tennis court and fitness studio.
