Now, the couple has moved to a larger, more modern property elsewhere in the Cotswolds and listed the Swinbrook estate for sale. The asking price? An impressive $30 million. If sold at that price, it would set a record as the most expensive home ever sold in the area.
For many, relocating overseas and restoring a historic home might be a once-in-a-lifetime endeavor. But for Ellen and Portia, it fits into a well-documented pattern. The pair has long been known for buying, renovating, and reselling luxury properties—turning their passion for design into a successful side pursuit.
While some fans hoped this move marked a permanent shift to a simpler lifestyle, it appears real estate remains the couple’s true calling. Their history of high-end renovations spans the globe, and their approach to homeownership seems more aligned with creative investment than settling down.
This latest transition highlights a broader trend among celebrities who seek peaceful escapes, only to discover that lifestyle changes require more than a change of scenery. While Kitesbridge Farm may not have become their forever home, it’s another chapter in Ellen and Portia’s ongoing story of design, transformation, and reinvention.
And as their renovated property enters the market, one thing is clear: their ability to blend luxury with rustic charm continues to attract attention—wherever in the world they go.
