Oprah Winfrey Purchases Jeff Bridges Property

Oprah Winfrey purchases Jeff Bridges Montecito property and has added yet another Montecito, California property to her real estate portfolio. Built-in 1919 and renovated in 2016, Winfreys latest property sits on four acres of land.

Bridges first listed the property in April for just under $8 million, and Winfrey ultimately bought it for $6.85 million. Winfrey already owns two properties in the area: She purchased the first, nicknamed the Promised Land, for $50 million in 2001, and the other, nicknamed Seamair Farm, for $29 million in 2015.

Its not publicly known if the Dude plans to abide in another Santa Barbara-area home, though records do reveal that he continues to own property in Montana. As for Winfrey, the chat show tycoon-turned-two-time Oscar nominee owns a bumper crop of other extraordinarily high-priced residences that include a 43-acre estate on scenic Orcas Island, a $13 million ski chalet in Telluride, Colo., and a vast ranch of nearly 1,000 acres on the Hawaiian island of Maui.
