Born and raised New Yorker Rachael Ray has never moved outside of her home state.
But those aren’t the couple’s only properties.
The self-professed"hick from the sticks"previously called another house in New York her home.
In addition to her two frequently used properties, Ray also owned a gorgeous 3,000-square-foot estate in Southampton.
Sheattempted to sell the propertyin summer 2017, though she didn’t find success until 2020 (viaObserver).
Lucky for us, this allowed us the opportunity to virtually tour her amazing mansion.
Let’s take a peek inside, shall we?
The area is, without a doubt, desirable.
And that’s putting it lightly.
It’s one of the few places that celebrities feel they can get away from the spotlight.
They want to respect [the celebrity’s] space and their privacy."
It istheplace to be during the summer months.
“Your surroundings should match your personality,” she revealed in her magazine.
“I love colorful things, so it was natural to have a colorful kitchen, too!”
Given her taste, it’s not all that surprising that Ray would have purchased a blast-from-the-past mansion.
Whether the ’70s vibe is your style or not, you have to admit it’s pretty cool.
“A media room is real life,” he toldHGTV.
Ironically, though, Ray is not actually all that tech-savvy.
Nevertheless, she revealed to the publication that she unwinds in the evenings with reruns ofColumbo.
So, maybethat’swhat her media room was for.
Ray has also never been one to hand over the decorating to an interior designer.
I like the security that comes with knowing the story behind every single thing in my home."
Whoever ended up buying Ray’s home may have been happy to know thatall of the furniture was included.
For a modestly large 3,000-square-foot home, that’s even more impressive.
But, when you’ve got to go, it’s nice to have options, right?
In her former Southampton property, each bedroom has a bathroom ensuite.
Yep, you could basically just live in that bathroom.
The other two bathrooms are just a short walk away in the pool house.
Ray herself likely took advantage of the pool house over the years she owned the property.
Ray wrote in a 2015 issue ofEvery Day with Rachael Ray.
The small kitchen was home to just a few appliances.
White cabinetry, gray countertops, and a neutral marble backsplash make the space look bright and airy.
A darker island with a butcher-block top commands attention in the small space.
And in it, there’s ample space to hold wine bottles.
The luxurious master suite
Unlike many celebrities, Rachael Ray is often considered to bedown to earth.
The style of her former Southampton home was evidence of that.
Before starting her own line of home decor, Ray found the majority of furnishingsuncomfortable and ostentatious.
That was basically the opposite of her Southampton estate.
Nevertheless, it would have cost you a pretty penny to purchase her home.
It sold for $3.25 million, as reported byObserver.
Or maybe it could be renovated into something likeOprah’s teahouse.
“I just want a place I can die,” she toldThe New York Times.
“It’s the Italian in me.”
Beautiful as it may be, the Southampton estate is not that place, since it wassoldin 2020.
