Adam Levine and his wife, Behati Prinsloo, have purchased an El Miraval estate in Montecito, CA for $22.7 million.

The Maroon 5 front-man and his supermodel wife are yet another celebrity couple to join the exclusive enclave that Montecito has to offer. The estate dates back almost a century and sits on 5.2 acres of property. The main households five of the property’s nine bedrooms, which includes a main suite with a private terrace.

The 12,000 square foot home has a Spanish Colonial villa-style, which is signature to architect George Washington Smith. Inside the home are massive living and dining spaces, with dark wood-beamed ceilings and Saltillo tile floors. There is also a chef’s kitchen with a huge center island, a movie theater and a wine cellar.

Outside has multiple covered and uncovered patio areas which is perfect for outdoor dining, as well as a putting green, tennis court and swimming pool. The property also includes a two-bedroom guesthouse, a one-bedroom garden cottage, and a detached five-car garage which also includes another guest bedroom.

This is not the only celebrity real estate movement in the high-end market of Montecito. Last year, singer Ariana Grande purchased a $6.8 million home from TV star Ellen DeGeneres in the area.
