Cody Ko buys Reese Witherspoon’s Malibu holiday house

YouTube sensation Cody Ko and his wife Kelsey Kreppel have purchased Reese Witherspoon’s former vacation home in Malibu for $7.7 million.

The sprawling property, nestled in the foothills above Zuma Beach, was sold by Meg Haney, the daughter of real estate billionaire Franklin Haney, according to Dirt.

Haney purchased the home from Witherspoon and ex-husband Jim Toth for $6.7 million in 2020.

The gated driveway leads to a two-acre spread dotted with mature sycamore trees.

Originally built in 1950, the property was extensively renovated and modernised by the previous owners, who operated it as a wedding venue.

The property includes a main four-bedroom house, a repurposed barn with a space for billiards, a kitchen with an eat-in island, a living/media area, a lofty ensuite bedroom, and a covered porch.

Another building houses a gym and media room, and there is a nifty Airstream trailer that sleeps four and has its own kitchen, bath, and shower.

The single-level home is outfitted with a dining room and a small eat-in kitchen equipped with high-end stainless steel appliances and a wet bar.

The primary bedroom is spotlighted by a wallpapered bath with a lilac-hued clawfoot soaking tub.

Outdoors, the grassy grounds include an equestrian paddock, fire pit, bocce court, hot tub, and vine-covered pavilion, along with plenty of spots for al fresco lounging and entertaining.

Ko and Kreppel sold their architectural compound in Venice’s Silver Triangle for the exact asking price of $4.3 million before purchasing their new home. The couple tied the knot in February of 2023.

The Malibu home offers breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean and is situated in one of the most desirable areas of Malibu.

With its sprawling grounds, numerous amenities, and ample space for entertaining, the property is a perfect fit for the couple’s lifestyle.
