Paula Deen is Selling Her Savannah Mansion for $12.5 Million
Tuesday, May 12th, 2015
The celebrity chef is selling her 5.5-acre Savannah, Georgia, estate for $12.5 million, a source confirms to PEOPLE. The private, gated property — where she filmed her Food Network cooking shows — boasts a 14,500-sq.-ft. home, a stocked pond, a croquet court, a chicken coop, a 10,000-sq.-ft. barn, a dock house and more.
“When Paula is in Savannah, she wants an easier and simpler life,” the source says, citing a slew of Deen’s projects, including expanding her restaurant business, new cookbooks and her recently launched digital network. But all that won’t stop her from picking up a new project: creating another Deen-designed home in — where else? — Savannah. “She can’t wait to find, renovate and design her next home.”
