<p id=”par-1_87″>Ellen DeGeneres and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/what-is-the-age-difference-between-ellen-degeneres-and-portia-de-rossi.html/”>her wife, Portia de Rossi</a>, made headlines when <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/inside-ellen-degeneres-portia-de-rossi-many-mansions.html/”>they relocated from the United States</a> to the scenic <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/beyonce-jay-z-new-neighbors-england-worry-swarms-paparazzi.html/”>countryside of the Cotswolds</a> in late 2024. Their estate was initially the 43-acre “Kitesbridge Farm” purchased for about £15 million. And it featured a historic 18th-century farmhouse and underwent an extensive renovation in just 4.5 months with a 70-person team. Recently, DeGeneres gave a sneak peek into her new home, which she moved into after putting Kitesbridge Farm up for sale. Here’s a peek inside her new place. </p>

<p id=”par-2_58″>After selling their initial Cotswolds estate within a year, Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, found a new countryside retreat. Unlike the more rustic 18th-century farmhouse they initially purchased (and soon listed for sale), their current residence is described as a striking home built on a former farmyard and set on approximately 100 acres of land. </p>
<p id=”par-3_50″>The house features ultra-large floor-to-ceiling windows framing the lush, rolling hills of the Cotswolds. Interior design elements include polished concrete or stone floors, natural wood finishes, and minimalist furnishings that give it a clean, airy feel. Crucially, the property offers the space and purpose needed for de Rossi’s equestrian interests.</p>
<p id=”par-4_97″>DeGeneres recently gave fans a rare peek inside her and de Rossi’s sprawling countryside estate via an <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/p/DP_6L3MEem6/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Instagram</a> video. The former talk show host filmed their new puppy, Sport, joyfully darting around a bright, open-plan living space. Their older dog, Kid, followed his own quirky play style. The clip revealed a home abundant with natural light and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that frame lush green views of the English countryside. Inside, viewers could glimpse a sleek glass table adorned with books and candles. They could also see cream-colored dining chairs set around a long table, and wooden ceiling beams.</p>
<p id=”par-5_43″>According to <a href=”https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/15380623/ellen-degeneres-portia-de-rossi-cotswolds-mansion/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>The U.S. Sun</a>, a Mies van der Rohe Barcelona daybed and a Hans Wegner Flag Halyard Chair were also visible in the clip. The open floor plan revealed a huge dining table with a kitchen sink not far in the distance.</p>

<p id=”par-6_55″>Ellen DeGeneres’ sneak peek into her Cotswolds mansion reflects her home style philosophy: relaxed and accessible, yet elevated. In 2017, she launched her furniture and décor collection with Thomasville. She described the pieces as “design I want to share with everyone,” as she saw the furniture as both necessary and playful, according to <a href=”https://www.furnituretoday.com/business-news/ellen-degeneres-infuses-her-personal-style-vision-popular-thomasville-furniture-line/?utm_source=chatgpt.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Furniture Today</a>.</p>
<p id=”par-7_85″>In other interviews and features, DeGeneres has remarked that her décor process typically starts with a key piece, like a piece of furniture or lighting, and builds the space around it. According to <a href=”https://thetwincitiesbuzz.com/real-estate/ellen-degeneres-reveals-secrets-behind-her-very-lucrative-190-million-home-flipping-hobby/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>The Twin Cities Buzz</a>, DeGeneres would’ve become an interior designer if she hadn’t become a talk show host. <br><br>“It’s not that I get bored, I’m just so passionate about architecture and furniture, and you can only buy a certain type of furniture for a contemporary house or a midcentury house,” she explained.</p>

<p id=”par-8_71″>Ellen DeGeneres has been refreshingly candid about her move to the Cotswolds with Portia de Rossi. During a public Q&A in Cheltenham, she confirmed that the re-election of Donald Trump was a pivotal factor. According to <a href=”https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c8d638rrndzo” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>the BBC</a>, she recounted that she and Portia had arrived in the UK the day before the election. They “woke up to lots of texts with crying emojis … and we’re like, ‘We’re staying here.’” </p>
<p id=”par-9_37″>“It’s absolutely beautiful,” she said. “We’re just not used to seeing this kind of beauty. The villages and the towns and the architecture — everything you see is charming, and it’s just a simpler way of life.”</p>
<p id=”par-10_23″>“It’s clean,” DeGeneres continued. “Everything here is just better — the way animals are treated, people are polite. I just love it here.”<a href=”https://www.thewrap.com/ellen-degeneres-moved-to-uk-because-of-trump/?utm_source=chatgpt.com” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”></a></p>
