"DeGeneres has made major shifts to her real estate portfolio in recent years. The Emmy-decorated comedian wiped several high-profile homes in the US from her slate-including a Montecito bungalow that sold for $5.2 million in March 2025-to live in England in the Cotswolds, a quiet cluster of villages roughly two hours outside of London. The couple initially planned to spend time in the rural hub just a few months out of the year, but made a more permanent move after President Donald Trump's 2024 election win."
""We got here the day before the election and woke up to lots of texts from our friends with crying emojis, and I was like, 'He got in,'" DeGeneres told British press of the move. "And we're like, 'We're staying here...Everything here is just better-the way animals are treated, people are polite. I just love it here.'" DeGeneres and de Rossi snapped up two English farmhouses: their now-former primary residence, which is currently listed for $30 million; and a modern $20 million estate, dubbed the Kitesbridge Farm, in Swinbrook, Oxfordshire. "When we decided to live here full time, we knew that Portia couldn't live without her horses," DeGeneres previously told the Wall Street Journal about their relocation. "We needed a home that had a horse facility and pastures for them.""
Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi closed on a $27.4 million mansion in Montecito, California, after spending a year living in the Cotswolds, England. The couple relocated to England full time following the 2024 presidential election and purchased two English farmhouses, including the $20 million Kitesbridge Farm in Swinbrook and a primary residence currently listed for $30 million. DeGeneres sold several U.S. properties, including a Montecito bungalow that sold for $5.2 million in March 2025. The move to England accommodated Portia de Rossi's need for horse facilities and pastures. The pair have now listed one British farmhouse and reacquired a Montecito estate.
