Prolific property flippers Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi have snapped up a Tudor-style residence outside Los Angeles for $US3.607 million ($5.26 million), according to media reports.

The three-bedroom home comprises two barns originally built in England in the 1700s, transported to the secluded coastal town of Montecito and reconstructed into a private home.
