Ellen Degeneres's House

Ellen DeGeneres is a stand-up comedian who hosted The Ellen DeGeneres Show for 19 seasons, from 2003 to 2022. Her 1997 coming-out on her sitcom Ellen made TV history.

The Hedgerow earns its name. Siteline Santa Barbara’s Erik Torkells wrote in 2021 that plants crowd the road on the way in, and he credits the trees to how long ago the area was developed.

Torkells’s later Hedgerow walk singles out a 1920 Reginald Davis Johnson design, a 1923 house, and a 1926 Mary Craig. This cottage came before all 3.

DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi bought this 1915 cottage in April 2022 for $5.4M, according to Siteline Santa Barbara. They had it back on the market about 6 weeks later.

It closed at $5.1M in March 2023 after 2 price cuts, per Siteline, whose editor wrote they sold at a loss. An update on the same item gives the purchase as $5.1M, against his $5.4M.

In May 2022, Siteline wrote that “the kitchen wants attention.” By November, People described that kitchen as updated, without saying who did the work.

That same April, the couple paid $8.068M for a 1925 Hedgerow house, and Siteline had its resale closed at $8.409M by July 2022. This cottage took about 11 months to go.
