Gwyneth Paltrow began building her dream home in 2015, after she happened upon a derelict lot for sale in Montecito, California, on a real estate app. Now she recounts the 'long and arduous journey' that transformed the run-down site into her dream home.
"It was like Grey Gardens," Paltrow told the magazine for its forthcoming March cover story, referring to the infamously dilapidated estate once inhabited by relatives of Jackie Kennedy."There were wild animals living there and swarms of bugs, but I fell in love with the land and the views.
The residence is, however, more contemporary than it might seem. For starters, it runs entirely on solar energy and uses a"gray-water system" that collects and repurposes wastewater from sinks, showers and baths.
