When the glitz and glamour of Hollywood got to be too much for Renee, she decided to head north and purchased a Connecticut countryside property. Located in Pomfret Center, the 3-story colonial estate rests in a peaceful and serene spot overlooking the Quinebaug River. Renee purchased the 3,463 square foot main house along with 38-acres of seemingly endless land in 2004 for $1.32 million. The home was constructed circa-1770, making it significant to the town’s history. Original architecture and old-fashioned attributes maintain the home’s vintage quality. The open country kitchen boasts granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances. The master bedroom features an enticing ensuite and dressing area. There are also seven fireplaces, a wood-paneled library, a guest cottage and a recreation barn on the property. The actress went on to further update the property by adding floral gardens, romantic terraces, and dry-stone walls. Surrounded by open fields and conservation land, Renee’s Connecticut sanctuary provides privacy and tranquility at every turn. Zellweger placed the home on the market in 2014 for $1.6 million, but after a couple of price adjustments, it appears that she decided not to sell after all.)
