Reese Witherspoon has a new $6.9 million country house in Ojai, California. According to the MLS listing, it�s a Wallace Neff architectural masterpiece that includes an equestrian compound: �The perfect 6+ acre hideaway is nestled in fabulous Ojai Valley, a short drive to one of LA�s most sought after vacation spots. Fabulous new master suite. Incredible privacy.�
The home was formerly owned by actor/director Harold Ramis (�Ghostbusters�). Here are some of the photos from the real estate listing for it:
The home appeared in House Beautiful when it was owned by interior designerKathryn M. Ireland, and the photographs are beautiful. In the article, Ireland explained:
Originally, this house was designed by Wallace Neff in the �20s to be a barn. Then another architect, Austen Pierpoint, made changes in the �40s so it could be a home. This is classic Spanish architecture, but with a sense of bohemian fun, comfortable and loose.I love the way this house moves from the kitchen into the living room. And then these massive iron door handles everywhere. I love to lift them. It�s downright medieval.
Here�s how the rooms looked when Ireland lived in the house, and there was a lot more color in them:
