Oprah Winfrey owned the estate after she purchased it in early 2021 for $10.5 million.

Jennifer Aniston Bought 8500 Square-Foot Montecito estate from Oprah Winfrey
Jennifer Aniston’s latest purchase is the Mediterranean-style abode from talkshow legend Oprah Winfrey. Aniston is not the first celebrity to have a house in Montecito, as Hollywood stars, including Meghan Markle, Gwyneth Paltrow, Rob Lowe, Ariana Grande, and Ellen Degeneres, already own property in the beach town of Montecito.
It would also not be the first time the Bruce Almighty star has invested in real estate. From time to time, she has bought luxurious and exotic properties. Jennifer Aniston has earlier said that if she was not an actress she would have been a designer. She said, “I love the process. There’s something about picking out fabrics and finishes that feeds my soul.”
Reports state that the Murder Mystery star has paid $14.8 million for the Tuscan-style farmhouse property. It includes four bedrooms, three baths, and a powder room for a total of 4,000 square feet. The property also has beautiful gardens, trees and terraces, and parking spaces that can fit up to 15 vehicles. It also includes massive walk-in closets and a Zen garden-style bathroom along with a home yoga studio.
Montecito Estate is the Perfect Fit for Jennifer Aniston
Ever since rising to fame with FRIENDS, the actress has lived in Bel-Air in Los Angeles. She resided in several houses within the Bel-Air, including an extravagant $75 million home.
But her primary residence is considered to be the one she purchased in 2011. The Montecito house is considered perfect for the actress as most facilities fulfill her needs and requirements. Aniston is also known to be a fitness enthusiast, and the home yoga studio is something she can utilize anytime she wants.
With all the open space and natural lighting, it is considered the perfect house for the Emmy-winning actress. Reports have claimed that Bel-Air would still be Aniston’s primary residence.
