Nestled amongst the estates of celebrities such as Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Gwyneth Paltrow's magnificent Montecito mansion, purchased for nearly $5 million, is nothing short of a spectacle.
The Oscar-winning actress and Goop founder, recently gave her Instagram followers a sneak peek into her luxurious dwelling, artfully using her favourite spring attire as the perfect excuse.

She beamed with pride as she showed off her fuzzy Birkenstock sandals, perfectly displaying her well-pedicured feet.

The dwelling also houses a vast walk-in closet, transformed from a spacious room, where the entrepreneur posed for a selfie in a white mock-neck blouse and a long pencil skirt. Adding a dash of nerdy chic to her look, she donned aviator glasses.
Last year, Gwyneth gave a tour of the house to Architectural Digest.

"And so with the architects, we conceived of having a fireplace, which is something you see a lot in Europe in an entryway, and just gives this really nice feeling of warmth and welcome as you come in," she added.

"It makes me feel very grown-up when I pee in here," she joked. This space features a 'hand-done antiqued mirror' and hand-painted wallpaper, marking it as a truly special place in the mansion.

The duo, however, 'fought' over a futuristic light fixture that now hangs from the ceiling, which Paltrow now thinks is 'pretty cool and fabulous.'
Gwyneth's kitchen, featuring reclaimed Portuguese tiles, was designed by the New York-based firm Roman and Williams.
"I wanted an open-plan kitchen so I can cook and chat with my kids," she shared, indicating her affection for her two children from her previous marriage to Chris Martin.
In her living room, the mom-of-two humorously dubbed the eclectic mix of styles as 'bonkers in the best way.' She mentioned a marble bar that she doesn't use much recently but assured that "when the time comes, I will heavily utilize her."
