Ellen DeGeneres offloads $52.8 million mansion to music manager

Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi are prolific buyers and sellers of multimillion-dollar mansions in California.

And now the couple have sold their sprawling Montecito mansion for a whopping $US36 million ($52.8 million), according to SitelineSB and Dirt.

It’s understood Justin Bieber’s manager Scooter Braun has bought the property in an off-market deal.

Records show DeGeneres purchased the estate less than six months ago for $US21 million ($30.8 million), earning herself a tidy profit of $21.9 million with the recent sale.

The former talk show host and her actress wife completed a stunning renovation of the property, which was built back in 2014.

Located in Santa Barbara, the four-bedroom, five-bathroom mansion is a sight to behold with its Moorish design.

Moorish architecture is certainly eye-catching with its colourful tiles, plasterwork and geometric shapes.

It’s understood the design of DeGeneres’ former home, named “Villa Tragara”, took inspiration from the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain.

Standout interior design features are the hand-carved front door, timber floorboards imported from Europe, Corinthian-style columns, hand-carved marble fountain and bath.

Alongside the main residence which offers incredible views of the Pacific Ocean, there’s also a guesthouse with a living room and kitchen.

There’s plenty of space to relax and unwind with 2.45 acres of manicured grounds, a swimming pool, fire pit, tennis and bocce courts.

Braun, Bieber and their A-list pals will be able to entertain in style with the estate also boasting a 16-seat covered pergola for al fresco dining, a movie theatre and billiard room.

DeGeneres and de Rossi are known just as much for their property portfolio as their on-screen success.

They reportedly have a property portfolio worth a whopping $US450 million ($924 million).
