Roseanne Barr’s 46-Acre Ranch in Hawaii Sparks a Bidding Frenzy and Sells in Just One Week
Roseanne Barr didn’t waste any time cashing out on her slice of Hawaiian paradise. Her 46-acre ranch near Honokaa on the Big Island sparked a bidding frenzy after it was put up for sale in August 2025 and sold just one week later for $2.6 million—well above its $1.95 million asking price.
“We sold the property for $650,000 over asking, attracting buyers from five states, the Neighbor Islands, and three European countries,” listing agent Paul Stukin of Deep Blue HI told Robb Report. “It’s a clear reflection of the strong demand for unique Hawai‘i properties.”
Perched along the lush Hamakua Coast, the sprawling estate first drew attention as the backdrop for Barr’s 2011 reality series Roseanne’s Nuts, which followed her, her partner Johnny Argent, and son Jake Pentland as they tried their hands at farming. The series lasted just one season.

Far from the Hollywood spotlight, Barr was drawn to Hawaii for both family and lifestyle reasons and moved there permanently in 2007. “I had always traveled yearly with my family to Hawaii—it was an essential summer getaway,” she told Robb Report in August. She purchased the Honokaa property with the goal of building a self-sufficient home, cultivating the land, and giving back to the local community by helping feed struggling families.
The main house measures 2,716 square feet residence with four bedrooms.

The roughly 2,700-square-foot main house sits amid more than 4,000 macadamia trees, along with avocado, finger lime, apple banana, and tangerine groves, offering sweeping ocean and landscape views from a broad lanai. The grounds include a pool with a waterslide, a pool house, an art studio, a greenhouse, a bamboo-enclosed outdoor shower and soaking tub, and a garage/workshop—perfect for anyone ready to embrace island living to the fullest. Inside, high ceilings, open-plan layouts, and walls of glass create a bright, airy interior that brings the surrounding landscape into every room.

“Hawaii will always hold a special place in my heart, but I’m getting too old to do as much as I used to,” Barr said. “The land deserves someone with the spirit and energy to care for it the way it should be.” After nearly two decades of stewardship, she is moving on, retaining a smaller property in Waimea while relocating to Texas to focus on new ventures.
