The 1917 farmhouse, perched in Santa Barbara’s quiet Toro Canyon, sits on 25 acres and spans 4,313 sq ft with four bedrooms and five bathrooms. After a 2019 sale to former Paramount CEO Brian Robbins, the property was taken off the market for a year before re‑listing.
DeGeneres and de Rossi’s restoration team preserved original beams and stone while installing wide‑plank flooring, large‑format windows and neutral palettes, blending rustic heritage with understated luxury.
Santa Barbara’s luxury market has tightened, driving prices for acreage‑rich estates up; Homes of Celebs notes a 40 % jump in comparable listings over the past two years.
Local avocado farmer Maria Sanchez still tends the orchard that borders the estate, a reminder of the property’s agrarian roots. Offers will close on June 30, 2026, giving buyers a limited window to secure the home.
