Olivia Newton-John's widower sells California home for new family

John Easterling, the widower of Olivia Newton-John, has decided to sell their California home located in Santa Ynes, which they purchased together in 2015. The 4,450 square foot residence, set on 12 acres, was listed for $8.9 million in June 2024. Easterling expressed that he feels a strong presence of his late wife in the home but recognizes that it is time for another family to enjoy the space. He emphasized the beauty and serenity of the property, which has been a significant part of their lives. The home features four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and an array of amenities including an outdoor kitchen with a pizza oven, a pool cabana, and a barn with stables. It also includes a guest house with two additional bedrooms and a playground suitable for young children. Easterling noted that the property would be ideal for families, highlighting the outdoor playground that offers various activities for kids. Inside, the home boasts an open floor plan connecting the great room, kitchen, and dining area, with a light blue grand piano in the living room. The kitchen is equipped with modern appliances, including double ovens and two dishwashers, making it functional for family gatherings. The office space is designed for productivity, featuring built-in shelving and access to the backyard. Easterling's decision to sell reflects his acknowledgment of the changes in his life after Newton-John's passing. He hopes that the new owners will appreciate the peace and beauty of the home as much as he and his late wife did, allowing it to become a cherished space for another family.
