REESE WITHERSPOON
LOCATION: Nashville, Tenn.
PRICE: $1.95 million
SIZE: 3,855 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms
The actress seems to have an affinity for flipping cute old houses in need of a little TLC. Witherspoon purchased this Southern-style, Oak Hill home back in 2014 for $1.95 million from a neighbor who, in turn, had purchased the property to save it from demolition. Built in 1930, the house has four bedrooms and four bathrooms within 3,855 square feet and sits on about 6.5 acres of land, which also has a tranquil brook running through it. Although the previous owners did some basic renovations like refinishing the hardwood floors and gutting the outdated kitchen, the home needed a more than a little bit of work done on it.
In addition to two other Nashville homes, Witherspoon also owns an idyllic, equestrian-style spread in Malibu, Calif., and a luxury getaway in the Bahamas.

The inside of the house is decidedly rustic, yet charming with wide plank wood floors and walls and eye-catching exposed beams throughout. Her living room alone measures in at 30 feet long and has several massive four-pane sash windows that let in plenty of natural sunlight, while two bookcases flank a large stone fireplace and mantle. As for outdoor accommodations, a screened solarium leads out to the swimming pool and spa that overlook the property’s 33 wooded acres. There’s also a separate barn that could be used by the singer as a recording studio or as place to crash for her guests.

Danson and his wife Mary Steenburgen bought the place back in 2012 for $750,000. Seeing that Steenburgen is originally from Arkansas, it stands to reason that the Dansons were perhaps feeling a bit nostalgic for the South and decided to buy a home in Nashville.

“Very Cavallari” star Kristin Cavallari seems to have hit a rough patch lately. Not only is her marriage to NFL player Jay Cutler headed for Splitsville, she’s also having a tough time selling her Mediterranean-style Nashville estate. Originally priced at $7.9 million, the 20,000-square-foot mansion is now available at $4.95 million. Cavallari and Cutler bought the manse in early 2012 for $5.3 million, so it looks the erstwhile couple are prepared to take a big loss on the sale.
The lodge-like mansion has a whopping 25 rooms with 7 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. The home features formal living and dining rooms, a modern, high-end kitchen, a double-height library, a wet bar and a home theater.
