According to the creator of Poosh, Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker still don’t live together despite being married for more than six months. However, property records reveal that the newlyweds paid for their first joint residence jointly, suggesting that this unusual status may be shifting. Us Weekly broke the news of the significant purchase first.
The property of choice was Conan O’Brien’s seaside retreat in Carpinteria, a little beach town near Santa Barbara and Montecito, which suddenly became available for sale during the summer to much hoopla.
For their casually cool new digs, Kardashian and Barker paid $14.5 mιllιon, a significant decrease from O’Brien’s $16.5 mιllιon asking price but still far higher than the $7.9 mιllιon the seasoned TV host paid for the property seven years earlier.
According to the description, O’Brien renovated the property extensively, taking it “back to the studs” during his ownership. The beach shack from the 1950s has approximately 1,000 square feet of living space, two comfortable bedrooms, one toilet, and a lower level with a bonus room, ample storage, and a carport.
A combination living/dining area with a metal fireplace and unhindered ocean views is serviced by a kitchen with granite countertops and superior stainless appliances.
Both bedrooms share a balcony with views of the whitewater and an expansive wooden deck that is ideal for dining al fresco.
In addition to the rather modest main house, there is also a two-story attached guesthouse with two separate bedroom suites, a living room, and a kitchenette with a breakfast bar.
This guesthouse is perfect for a live-in staff member or visiting family members. A two-car garage with a Tesla charging station is attached to the guesthouse, and there are large driveway gates for further seclusion.
On the nearly half-acre property, which has 50 feet of ocean frontage, the two structures are surrounded by a tropical forest of lush vegetation that includes up to a dozen mature palm trees and a profusion of bougainvillea plants.
Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis, Kevin Costner, and George Lucas are among the Kardashian-Barker family’s nearest new neighbors.
