Sandra Bullock has been lighting up the big screen since the ’90s. Throughout her illustrious career, Bullock has accumulated immense wealth that allows her to live her best life. The actor has an extensive real estate portfolio that once involved a farmhouse. Here’s an inside look at Bullock’s renovated California house she’s selling for $6 million.
Sandra Bullock’s California farmhouse will cost you $6 million
Sandra Bullock has put up her house, a 91-acre citrus and avocado farm in Valley Center, California, on the market for a whopping $6 million. The residence consists of three lots consisting of 6,000 square feet of the main home and nearly 1,200 organic avocado trees nearing maturity.
According to Mansion Global, the Academy Award-winning actor began acquiring the land in 2007 through a trust tied to her attorney. According to the realtor, Alan Long of Avenue 8, citrus and avocado groves were already growing on the property, but Bullock took over and turned them into organic produce.
Lang said the Speed star completely gave the property a facelift by adding a saltwater swimming pool and spa, importing ancient olive trees, and creating walk paths that lead to a pond. The star also reportedly expanded the family orchard and gardens. According to the agent, Bullock wanted to create a “secluded retreat” for her close friends and family to gather away from the daily bustle of the city.
The main residence boasts a planted central courtyard with a fountain, several French doors, and nine fireplaces. The house also has an eat-in kitchen, a La Cornue oven, and a dining area with a beamed ceiling.
The property contains four bedroom suites, each with an outdoor space and a private entry. There are also three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a chicken coop, solar panels, and an electric charging station within the residence.
