They’re certainly a Hollywood power couple. But these days, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds’s houses are located nowhere near Tinseltown. The actors, who have been married since 2012 and share four young children together, live primarily in a peaceful village not far from New York City. “Blake and Ryan are avid homebodies,” a source told Us Weekly in 2022, though it feels safe to say that this summer they’ve stepped outside their suburban bubble and back into the spotlight, for better or for worse. In July, Reynolds’s film Deadpool & Wolverine was a smashing success, becoming the highest-grossing R-rated movie ever and bringing in $1.14 billion. Not long after, Lively’s flick It Ends With Us, based on Colleen Hoover’s bestselling novel, hit theaters, and while it could also be called a box office hit, the press tour around the film has brought some backlash Lively’s way.
With the star constantly in the headlines, we decided to look back at the properties her and Reynolds have called home over the years, including their current digs.
The Wong House
Before Lively and Reynolds were an item, Reynolds owned a property in Los Feliz that he bought with his then wife, Scarlett Johansson. The pair paid $2.9 million for the restored midcentury-modern pad, known as the Wong House, built in 1969 by California architects Conrad Buff and Donald Hensman. The stunning one-story post-and-beam pad featured three bedrooms, including a primary suite with dual sinks and an outdoor bathtub, spread out across 2,835 square feet. Images of the residence reveal entire walls of glass and sliding glass doors that opened from the kitchen directly onto a wooden-deck patio, as well as a large pool and lawn. Following their split, the couple listed the home for $3.65 million in 2012 and sold it for $3.5 million shortly afterward.
Bedford, New York, traditional
In early 2012, about six months after Lively and Reynolds began dating after meeting on the set of Green Lantern, the couple paid $2.3 million for a home in Bedford, New York, about an hour north of the city. Neighbors at the time included other Hollywood A-listers like Bruce Willis, Ralph Lauren, and Catherine Zeta-Jones. The residence reportedly measured 4,753 square feet, with three bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms, with a two-bedroom guest suite situated elsewhere on the two-acre property. “They picked a very traditional kind of house for people who work in Hollywood,” a source told People at the time. “They wanted a house with character, not a trendy, modern house. Their place is very homey.” The couple sold the pad for a reported $2.4 million in May 2013 after buying a larger home in the area.
Pound Ridge, New York, Colonial
The couple next purchased a $5.7 million mansion in Pound Ridge, just a few miles away from their original home. The entire estate reportedly spans 11.65 acres and includes an outdoor barn, while the main Colonial-style house measures 8,892 square feet, boasting seven bedrooms and six bathrooms. There is also a separate guest house. The small glimpses that Lively and Reynolds have shared of their home reveal dark hardwood floors, slate-colored walls, and a chic, rustic exterior. This is still their primary residence.
