For sale: Jennifer Aniston is selling her Beverly Hills home, which she spent more than two years renovating
Aniston, who is currently single, put the house on the market after deciding it was 'too much' for her during a recent trip to London.


Jennifer Aniston’s luxurious Beverly Hills home is officially on the market for $42 million.

The Just Go With It star spent more than two years renovating that 9,000 square foot property after purchasing it in 2006 for $13.5 million.

And just last year Aniston raved about the Zen influenced home, telling Architectural Digest it felt 'like a hug' and 'vibrates with the love that created it.'

She told People magazine: ‘I couldn’t sleep and I sort of had one of those moments where I really needed to simplify.

‘My life needs to be simplified and clear out the clutter. And along with that thought came, I should sell my house. I had the realization that this is just too much for me, I’m not this person.’

Aniston named the property Ohana, in homage to the Hawaiian idea of extended family, and completely overhaulled it with the help of designer Stephen Shadley.

She marked her 40th birthday in 2009 by moving into the new decadent property that includes a Koi pond running through the entrance hall, breathtaking views of Los Angeles and a swimming pool.

Aniston is ready to get away from the prying eye of Hollywood and has set her sights on the Big Apple.

‘I am looking for little spots in New York City to go back home. There are all sorts of things that are going to be happening in the near future so I’m excited. I don’t know what they are but that’s the fun part.’

Whispers are growing louder that the divorced star has already successfully put an offer on a $15million duplex penthouse in New York’s West Village.

The apartment, spacious by New York City standards, may be the smaller, more manageable space Aniston at 3,000 square feet.
