House-Flipping Business

Ellen DeGeneres bought an oceanfront property for $18.6 million and listed it for $24 million two years later

But Ellen knows showbiz can’t forever sustain her living, so she started doing other ventures like flipping houses. She reportedly purchased over a dozen estates in a span of two decades and made tons of fortune out of them. Just recently, she listed an oceanfront property for a stunning amount of $24 million.

The house is conveniently located near Santa Barbara and Los Angeles and is considered a Seaside Escape in Carpinteria, California. The 6,862 square-foot main abode consists of three bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms while the separate guest house has a bedroom and two bathrooms. The property highlights a 77-feet beachfront that is accessible through the house’s wide beach-side patio.

The property promises a perfect California getaway with an extensive coastal view, drinking your morning coffee while walking barefoot on the shore, watching the sun sets on the horizon, and peacefully star-gaze at night. Ellen reportedly acquired the beach-front estate nearly two years ago for $18.6 million.
