Ariana Grande House: Where She Lives Now, and Five Homes She Left Behind

Ariana Grande, the singer who went from Nickelodeon's Victorious to an Oscar nomination for playing Glinda in Wicked, lives in the Hollywood Hills, in a house built in 1950 that she bought from Cameron Diaz in 2022 for about $4.9M. Hello reported the sale that June and said Diaz had bought the place meaning to knock it down and build something larger, then never did. What Diaz did do, in 2018, was put on a new roof and windows and enlarge the kitchen. Elle Decor's roundup of Grande's homes, published in November 2025, still calls it her current residence. It is the one house in this story that is not on our map.

Before it came five homes, all of them on our map. Two she rented. Three she bought in 2020 and 2021 and had sold by January 2024.

The largest was a glass-walled house in the Bird Streets, the enclave of bird-named roads above the Sunset Strip, which she bought in June 2020 and sold 16 months later. The precise address is the part we keep behind the ropes. For the county record and the map pin, see Ariana Grande's Bird Streets house on Velvet Ropes.

Benedict Canyon, 2015: the house she rented

Grande's first Los Angeles house on our map was a rental. She leased a Mediterranean-style hillside house in Benedict Canyon, which carries a Beverly Hills mailing address, and Architectural Digest is clear that she rented it. AD dates her move to 2015, a year earlier than this page once said. Property records compiled by PropertyShark date the house to 2014, so it was close to new when she arrived, and she was living there when Dangerous Woman came out on May 20, 2016. The last time it came up for rent, Dirt reported, the asking rent was $40,000 a month.

Our profile of the Benedict Canyon house lists it as her former rental.

Chelsea, 2018: the apartment she never owned

In June 2018, soon after their engagement, Grande and Pete Davidson moved into a new condominium apartment in West Chelsea.

It stayed close to empty that summer. W Magazine reported that Davidson had furnished it with lawn chairs. The couple called off the engagement in mid-October, about four months after moving in, according to Entertainment Tonight and The Hollywood Reporter.

The figure attached to this apartment ever since, $16M, was never paid by anyone. It was the 2018 asking price, as 6sqft and W Magazine reported at the time. No deed in the apartment's history names Grande or any company of hers, according to New York City's deed records. Entertainment Tonight wrote that the couple purchased the place, and Elle Decor's 2025 roundup still calls it her first purchase. The record shows the developer's own entity holding the title until August 2021, when it sold the unit to private buyers for about $12.1M. A month earlier, the New York Post had called it her former rental.

The Chelsea apartment has its own page, with the pin.

The Bird Streets house, 2020 to 2021

Los Angeles County dates this house to 2018. On the county's assessor map, most of the houses on the lots around it went up between 1939 and 1980, so it arrived late to a hillside that had been built out for decades. The house first came up for sale about two years before she bought it, at $25.5M, and was cut to about $17.5M before Grande paid $13.7M in June 2020, Hola reported, citing Realtor.com. She sold it in October 2021 for $14M, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Its history before her is stranger. The Times reported that the house was one of 138 properties held by Woodbridge Group, a Sherman Oaks developer whose $1.3B Ponzi scheme paid earlier investors with money taken from later ones. Its founder, Robert Shapiro, was sentenced to 25 years in prison in 2019, per the Times and HousingWire.

Montecito, 2020 to 2022: where she married

The Montecito house began as two barns built in Surrey, England, in the 1700s. In the 1980s they were shipped to California and joined into a single house, according to Architectural Digest, and the Santa Barbara County assessor records the house as built in 1986, the year of that second life. A glass-enclosed solarium links the two old barns, per Variety.

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi bought it in January 2020, had it remade in about five months, and sold it to Grande that June for about $6.75M, according to Variety and Siteline Santa Barbara, which covers the area's real estate. Grande married Dalton Gomez at the house in May 2021, a year after she moved in. Her representative told NBC News the ceremony was “tiny and intimate,” with fewer than 20 people.

She sold it off-market in September 2022 for $9.1M, per Architectural Digest and Siteline. The wedding house is on our map as a former home of hers.

The Bird Streets cottage, 2021 to 2024

A year after the big house, Grande bought a much smaller one in the same enclave in 2021, for $8.9M per Elle Decor. Dirt, as Nimvo relayed it, called the place a derelict teardown. The cottage dates to 1946, according to WION and Elle Decor.

The cottage outlasted her ownership. In January 2024 she sold it off-market to Bad Bunny for $8.3M, less than she had paid, per iHeartRadio and WION. The county's roll carries the other side of that deal. California resets a home's taxable value only when it changes hands, and Los Angeles County reset this one in 2024, marking a change of ownership.
