Roseanne Barr is selling her 46-acre Hawaiian macadamia farm—a slice of paradise where Hollywood fame meets island tranquility.
Roseanne Barr, the Emmy-winning comedian and star of Roseanne, is parting ways with a unique chapter of her life: her 46-acre macadamia nut farm in Honokā‘a, Hawaii. Listed for just under $2 million, the property reflects Barr’s journey from Hollywood fame to sustainable farming and a deeply personal connection to the Hawaiian landscape.

A Hollywood Star Turns Farmer
Barr, 72, purchased the estate in 2007 for $1.78 million and relocated from the mainland to immerse herself in Hawaiian life according to Mansion Global. The farm, located on the verdant Hamakua Coast of the Big Island, became the backdrop for her 2011 Lifetime reality series Roseanne’s Nuts, where she, her son Jake Pentland, and her partner Johnny Argent explored self-sufficiency, organic farming, and family life far from Hollywood’s limelight.
“It was special to work with my real-life family—before that, I had actors playing them,” Barr told Robb Report. “Tearing through the landscape on my tractor made me feel wild and free! The land, the farming, and the spirit of Hawaii are truly good for the soul.”

The Property Details
The estate is abundant and picturesque. Over 4,000 macadamia trees dot the rolling acreage, alongside avocados, finger limes, apple bananas, and tangerines. Walking trails meander through the property, offering both orchard and rainforest views.
At the heart of the farm sits a 2,716-square-foot main residence with four bedrooms and four-and-a-half bathrooms. The home’s broad lanai connects indoor and outdoor living, overlooking the ocean and orchards. Other amenities include a pool with a waterslide, pool house, greenhouse, art studio, bamboo outdoor shower, soaking tub, and a garage/workshop, blending comfort with farm practicality.

A Lifestyle of Self-Sufficiency
Barr has been an active steward of the land since purchasing it. The farm was not just a retreat; it was a lifestyle experiment in sustainability and giving back. “We wanted to build a sustainable home and help feed struggling families in Hawaii,” she said.
The property could evolve into a boutique farm-to-table venture, regenerative homestead, or other agricultural enterprise, according to the listing. Paul Stukin, founder and CEO of Deep Blue HI, emphasized the estate’s potential for community impact: “With macadamia sustaining Hawai‘i’s economy, the farm shows how land and community thrive together”.

Roseanne’s Journey from Sitcom Fame to Hawaii
Barr’s path in Hollywood has been unconventional. She rose to prominence with her 1985 stand-up on The Tonight Show and as the matriarch of Roseanne, a role that earned her an Emmy Award in 1993. After the original sitcom, she explored talk shows, reality TV, and a brief reboot of her iconic series, which the network retooled as The Conners following her departure.
Her move to Hawaii offered a grounding counterpoint to Hollywood’s turbulence, blending privacy, sustainability, and family life.

Honokā‘a: Small-Town Charm Meets Big Island Beauty
Honokā‘a is a tight-knit community offering dramatic coastal views, lush forests, and local charm. Barr’s farm combines the best of both worlds: agricultural productivity and a serene retreat. “Only here can you walk a macadamia farm in the morning and a rainforest trail by lunch,” Stukin said.
Why Barr is Selling
After nearly two decades, Barr is ready to pass the torch. “I’m just too damn old to keep doing this,” she said. “The land deserves someone with the spirit and energy to care for it the way it should be. I would love to see someone else take over and continue to share the spirit of Ohana”.
