For the past several years, Drew Barrymore has been splitting her time between a modestly appointed apartment on New York‘s Park Avenue—where she can be seen in a TikTok clip watching The Wedding Singer in a particularly teeny TV room—and an equally unpretentious yet powerfully charming residence in the Hamptons. But now the actress and talk show host is looking to lighten her real estate load, having hoisted her “converted barn estate” in the ritzy Sagaponack enclave on the market for a smidge under $8.5 million.
Records show the beloved E.T. star paid $5.5 million back in 2019 for the 1.7-acre property, which is showcased by a farmhouse-style home boasting six bedrooms and five baths in nearly 6,900 square feet of living space accented throughout with rustic hardwood floors, high exposed-beam ceilings, and French doors offering seamless indoor/outdoor environs. There’s also a separate one-bedroom, one-bath guest cottage, set off an oversized roof deck, that has its own living room and office area.
The rustic-chic living room is warmed by a brick fireplace.

Built over a century ago but extensively renovated during Barrymore’s tenure, the wood-shingled structure features a living room sporting a brick fireplace and built-in shelving, plus a terracotta-tiled kitchen outfitted with glass-front cabinetry, butcher block countertops, stainless appliances, and an eat-in peninsula. A see-through divider separates the kitchen from a breakfast nook and a great room, with other highlights including a pink-hued dining area with a window seat and skylight, as well as a primary suite that opens to a private patio.
Stealing the proverbial show, however, are the picturesque grounds, which are laced with rolling lawns, specimen trees, and gardens and host a sundeck-encased swimming pool flanked by a pool house, along with a bocce court and several spots ideal for al fresco lounging and entertaining. An added bonus: The Atlantic Ocean is less than a mile away.
The park-like grounds are spotlighted by a Gunite pool surrounded by a sundeck.

Barrymore, 49, was born into a showbiz family and first gained fame as Gertie in E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial when she was just 7 years old. She’s gone on to star in numerous other films, including Charlie’s Angeles, Boys on the Side, The Wedding Singer, 50 First Dates, Never Been Kissed, and Grey Gardens, which earned her Screen Actors Guild and Golden Globe awards. On TV, she appeared in the Netflix comedy series Santa Clarita Diet and can be seen daily on her eponymously named talk show, which was recently renewed through 2025.
