Jennifer Aniston’s M mansion in Montecito is almost complete: New pH๏τos show progress on actress’ lavish home over two years after she bought it from Oprah

Jennifer Aniston’s lavish $15 million Montecito mansion is nearing the final stages of its extensive renovations.

The Friends star, 56, bought the Mediterranean-style farmhouse from TV mogul Oprah Winfrey, 71, back in September 2022.

New images of the home — which boasts four-bedrooms and three-and-a-half-bathrooms — taken earlier this week, reveal significant construction progress.

The backyard, formerly featuring manicured lawns, now boasts a sizable swimming pool, as seen in the latest pH๏τos. 

The swimming pool appears to be nearly complete. Surrounding it are large, white planter areas filled with vibrant plants. 

The property’s exterior has been altered as well, notably with the replacement of blue windows by modern, white-framed designs.

The upper-level balconies have also been renovated, now featuring dark metal railings.

While renovations are still ongoing, outdoor furniture has been arranged on both the balconies and the raised patio overlooking the pool.

The construction efforts seem to be focused on the landscaping and pool area right now. 

A large orange crane can be seen in the backyard moving stone slabs, which will serve as steps leading from the patio down to the main garden. 

Aniston’s expansive farmhouse comprises several structures: an L-shaped main residence overlooking the swimming pool and gardens; a smaller building adjacent to the poolside patio; and a garage. 

It is not known if Aniston has decided to add or change any of the interior rooms. 

In August of last year, the home was pictured during a substantial renovation process.

Aerial pH๏τos of her sprawling farmhouse showed she demolished the property’s backyard to make way for an inground pool.

In order to install her pool, the lush lawn that previously existed has been completely removed to accommodate her new amenity.

The home previously boasted a backyard with a stone staircase leading towards a grᴀssy lawn surrounded by greenery, all of which is now gone.

The equipment needed to transform the backyard includes a crane, which was resting just beside the exterior of the pool.

Various other tools and equipment were pictured on the construction site as well.

Aniston bought the home from Oprah in an off-market transaction according to reports. The property was not publicly listed.

Winfrey, a longtime Montecito resident, previously acquired the property in 2021 as part of a larger one-acre estate, paying $10.5 million. 

However, just a year later, Winfrey divided and sold the estate. Aniston purchased one portion for $14.8 million, while Winfrey’s longtime friend, Bob Greene, acquired the other for an estimated $2.3 million.

Aniston’s new abode, built in 1998, has ‘picturesque ocean and mountain views, multiple terraces, landscaped gardens, and a mᴀssive motorcourt, all set on a private lot nestled among oak trees at the end of a long gated driveway,’ according to Architectural Digest.

The home has quite a bit of privacy on its heavily wooded premises, grᴀssy lawns and a enough parking to easily accommodate fifteen cars.

It’s not the only home Aniston owns – she also has a $20.97 million mansion in Bel Air.

The Emmy winner, who has a reported net worth of $320 million, per a report from Cosmopolitan, is known for her starring role as Rachel Green in the iconic sitcom Friends. 

Montecito boasts a celebrity-studded resident list, including Gwyneth Paltrow, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, and Katy Perry.
