“Newcomer Amanda Lynn Scores $70 Million Listing Next to ‘Yellowstone’ Star Kevin Costner”
Newcomer Amanda Lynn Shines with $70 Million Beachside Listing Next to Kevin Costner
Amanda Lynn, a fresh face on “Selling Sunset,” is ready to showcase her real estate prowess with a stunning $70 million beachside property adjacent to “Yellowstone” star Kevin Costner’s estate.
At 35, Amanda, whose real name is Amanda Lhommedieu, is one of the latest agents to join the popular Netflix series. Her latest listing, Rancho Cariñoso, is a unique opportunity to make a name for herself in the competitive real estate market.
Despite having just three bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, the property sprawls over an impressive 4.21 acres, featuring more than an acre of private oceanfront. Dubbed “the last significant beach estate on Southern California’s coast,” this Carpinteria, CA home is currently the second-most expensive listing in the area, especially after a substantial price drop from its previous $109 million listing in 2022.
The serene estate, which includes an oceanfront horse ranch and a private beach, is surrounded by celebrity neighbors. Costner lives next door, while Ellen DeGeneres recently sold her property nearby for an eye-popping $96 million.
Costner acquired his nearby 10-acre estate in 2006 for $28.5 million, attempting to sell it for $60 million in 2017 before reducing the price to $49 million and taking it off the market the following year.
Nestled just south of Santa Barbara, this coastal community attracts numerous A-list celebrities, including George Lucas, Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis, and even royalty like Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
The listing boasts not only the oceanfront acreage but also a 2,500-square-foot bungalow. The high value of the property stems from its prime beach access and the potential to build a 10,000-square-foot residence, as detailed in the listing.
Current property records indicate that the seller is Arthur Cameron III, grandson of Texas oil tycoon Arthur Cameron and actress Kay Aldridge. The estate has been in the family for generations, with Cameron describing it in 2022 as “an unparalleled place to grow up and live.”
With its designation as the “last significant beach estate on Southern California’s coast,” Rancho Cariñoso is truly a “legacy property,” offering over an acre of private oceanfront and direct access to the renowned Loon Point surf break.
The modern single-level home, built in 2014, features three spacious bedrooms and four bathrooms, along with a roof deck providing stunning water views. A 1,000-square-foot detached garage adds convenience, and the grounds offer ample opportunities for further development.
