Ellen DeGeneres, Portia de Rossi Sell UK Cotswolds Farmhouse After One Month

Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi, who moved to the UK full-time in 2024, are selling their first Cotswolds farmhouse less than a year after purchasing it for around $20 million (£15 million). The 43-acre property, known as Kitesbridge Farm and located in the prestigious Cotswolds area, underwent extensive renovations but faced challenges such as flooding and local opposition to development plans. The couple moved out after just one month, opting for a larger, more modern estate that better accommodates de Rossi's horses. DeGeneres has confirmed that while they are selling the original farmhouse, they are staying in the UK permanently, a decision influenced by Donald Trump's re-election as US president. The original property features six bedrooms, multiple amenities, and even a private pub, and is being sold privately to the right buyer rather than on the open market. Despite the quick turnaround, DeGeneres fell in love with the home and paid significantly over the asking price to secure it initially.
