Hollywood icon Jeff Bridges and his beloved wife Susan Geston once lived at a historic 4-acre Montecito ranch. The property, which now belongs to Oprah Winfrey, used to be “severely damaged” before it was renovated.
Jeff Bridges resided in a beautiful Spanish-revival-style mansion built by famous architect James Osborne Craig in 1919. However, now the sprawling estate, which spans a sizeable 3,517 square feet on four acres of land, belongs to media mogul Oprah Winfrey, who reportedly acquired the Montecito home for $6.85 million.
Granting residents peace, tranquility, breathtaking views, and privacy, the area of Montecito is hugely sought after by celebrities looking for a sanctuary outside of the glitz and glam of Hollywood.
Stepping through the wooden door of Jeff Bridges and Susan Geston’s former family home’s entrance, one is met with a modern and warm feel with the gorgeous high vaulted beamed ceilings throughout the house. Adopting a more-than-meets-the-eye approach, the lavish property boasts several structures.
The main house, situated front and center on the compound, has three bedrooms and two-and-half bathrooms, five fireplaces, and a kitchen that received an update with chef-grade appliances.
Taking a closer look at the master suite, one will see that the room isn’t short of luxurious comfort, as its large size hosts dual walk-in closets, bay windows, a fireplace, a marble and glass shower, and a freestanding bathtub.
Apart from the main house, the property also boasts a one-bedroom guest house and a pool house. The pool house features a family room, bathroom, sauna, and an office.
Jeff’s former house is the gift that keeps on giving as, in addition to the aforementioned structures, there is also a carriage house with a workshop and its own office.
