Here Are Some Luxury Love Nests of Privacy-Seeking Stars

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi

Power couple Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi met backstage of an awards ceremony in 2004 and began dating shortly after. The two were engaged and married in 2008. For most of their relationship, the two have lived on an enormous custom compound that includes several homes and properties they’ve added over the years. While the 26-acre place was perfect for the animal-loving pair (they own two dogs, three cats, two horses, two cows and two miniature horses) they listed the home on the Beverly Hills real estate market for a whopping $49 million in 2011.

The couple’s new home is a romantic hillside modern, above, located above Malibu’s beaches. Previously owned by another Hollywood power couple — Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie — the home has been completely renovated. Containing 4,088 square feet of living space with 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms on a 1.26-acre lot, the home will hopefully contain Portia and Ellen’s menagerie.
