Can there be anything more charming than Drew Barrymore? Yes, her lovely Hamptons home, born out of a 1920 barn has now been listed for an eye-watering $8.45 million. The 1.7-acre estate bought by the Charlie’s Angels actor in 2019 for $5.5 million boasts several heartwarming features, but it is the personality of this seven-bedroom home that emulates its owner, and that makes it such an enviable asset.
The 49-year-old host of “The Drew Barrymore Show” has lent her Hamptons beach home several charming nooks and corners. From the gunite-bordered swimming pool as well as a bocce court in the backyard, to an interior that imparts the warmth found in Drew’s personality, there is a personality the abode boasts which isn’t found easily.
The inviting home of the Hollywood A-lister who rose to fame playing Gertie in E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial includes a bright, airy, and open kitchen next to the cozy family room. This comfortable space still features beams that are over 100 years old. The built-in bookcases, a brick fireplace, and French doors add a hefty dose of rustic and romance to the space.
The most memorable area of the estate is the feminine and soothing pastel pink home office. Not only is the room pink, it has features like a sloping ceiling and skylight, which make it look like a room Barbie with brains would live in. The mount above the window pane sure looks like a Barrymore touch.
The outdoors are just as enchanting with lush gardens, herb and vegetable both featuring expansive green lawns. Barrymore shared her vegetable garden with daughter Olive, and included their home-grown produce of carrots, tomatoes, peppers, beets, and greens into her offspring’s lunches.
“There is a rabbit in my garden! Oh wait, it’s Olive picking vegetables,” she once captioned the above image. The innately positive home is filled with natural light as it would be filled with Barrymore’s laughter and optimism, thanks to the presence of several French doors and windows all over.
This lends the elegant dining room that opens onto a balcony an allure that would perhaps make the space a favorite of many. The $8.5 million home is a sanctuary of sorts in the Hamptons packed with well-tended grounds, an understated yet thoroughly elegant decor, oodles of character, a $30000 playhouse for her daughters, and a bit of Barrymore everywhere!
Drew Barrymore grew up in Poinsettia Place in West Hollywood and has owned several incredible properties, such as a mansion in the Hollywood Hills, which she sold in 2018 for $16.5 million. She even once possessed a Montecito Mansion. Barrymore owns a vacation beach house in Kauai, Hawaii, and a lavish duplex apartment in Manhattan at 830 Park Avenue.
