Renowned TV personalities Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi have recently put their luxurious Montecito mansion on the market for $46.5 million. Situated in the picturesque town of Montecito, California, the property has garnered widespread attention since being featured on Instagram.
The estate, purchased by the couple in June for $22.5 million, underwent extensive renovations, elevating it to a standard that justifies the doubled selling price. The main house includes two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and two half baths, complemented by two guest houses, an art studio, a pool house, and a staff house.

Described as a "classic Roman courtyard residence," the mansion, known as Pompeiian Court, was built in 1919 and has been transformed into a minimalist oasis by DeGeneres. The property boasts a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living spaces, with floor-to-ceiling pocket doors leading to a private garden filled with fountains and lush botanicals.
The residence also features an open layout, a chic eat-in kitchen with mirrored cabinetry, wine storage, a massage treatment room, and a billiards area. Additionally, there's a separate studio that could serve as a gym, office, or guest house.

They have also sold their Bali-inspired estate for more than $33 million and acquired comedian Dennis Miller's 4-acre estate for $49 million.
