She’s basically walking sunshine, so we’d expect nothing less than a sprawling lavender-covered estate for Drew Barrymore. The talk show host and long-time actor who shot to fame as a child star in the 1980s has found a buyer for her heavenly Hamptons home less than 30 days after listing it for sale.
The asking price was a cool $12.7m (or $US8.45m) to purchase her seven-bedroom, six-bathroom holiday haven next to the ocean. It’s set on 1.7 acres in the affluent village of Sagaponack. The area is a go-to for the New York elite, so it’s no wonder it wasn’t available for long. Drew paid $8.2m ($US5.5m) for the house in 2019, so she’s turned a tidy profit. Let’s take a look around…
Inside Drew Barrymore’s Hamptons home
Formerly a 1920s barn, it’s been renovated to exude all of the original character with contemporary comforts. The living room ceiling has exposed beams, with a brick fireplace adding to the rustic charm.
Sloping ceilings become a feature in many parts of the home, with bohemian decor lending a very Drew Barrymore-esque feel to the interiors.
Expanses of windows create endless views of the beautiful gardens in this living area. The home is light and bright with skylights included throughout.
The home has many precious unique details, such as this bedroom with floral walls. The botanical bedspread is a delightful bedding idea, we can’t help but think this might be the space where she dreamed up her cruelty-free make-up brand, Flower Beauty.
This light-filled bedroom opens onto a quaint terrace, with the barn-style home full of touches that recognise the property’s roots.
The raw exposed wood beams are also featured in this bathroom, with white wooden floors for a cosy vibe. There’s plenty of texture to warm up the all-white interiors.
You can just imagine Drew Barrymore putting sunflowers in a vase in this bathroom and looking out into the treetops.
A sun-soaked deck upstairs makes the ultimate alfresco entertaining area for barefoot parties on warm evenings.
Off the deck is a bright sanctuary, ideal for dreaming up new creative projects.
The home is nestled into park-like grounds with a pool, pool house, bocce court and landscaping you’d want to get lost in.
We’ve seen a lot of sensational pools and this is one of the most exquisite.
The lucky new owners of Drew Barrymore’s Hamptons escape are sure to be very pleased with their purchase.
