We Think We’re in Love: Jessica Simpson’s Mom Lists Her L.A. Home for $6.5M

Mom is moving on.

Yup. Tina Drew, the mother of pop stars Jessica Simpson and Ashlee Simpson, is parting ways with her longtime lakefront home.

Situated in the swanky Los Angeles neighborhood of Toluca Lake, the house sits behind a gated wall and is listed for $6.5 million.

And here’s a fun fact about this four-bedroom, 5.5-bath, 4,535-square-foot property: Drew purchased the place from actress Jennifer Love Hewitt for $4.1 million in 2014.

She snagged the abode after her split from Jessica and Ashlee’s dad, Joe Simpson.

If she gets her asking price for the house, Drew will make out nicely at the bank. Still, it can be hard to let go of a home you’ve lived in for nearly a decade—especially one with these water views. Here’s what she’ll be leaving behind.

Located 12 miles from downtown L.A., the Mediterranean-style home features a pretty courtyard, where outdoor living is easily imagined.

The home’s chic kitchen has a casual yet upscale style, thanks to the apron-front sink and butcher block island.

Hardwood floors and smart built-ins span three floors, while French doors open from the kitchen and family room to lakefront views on the upper and lower terraces.

Upstairs, custom closets and dressing areas grace the primary suite.

Behind the home, there’s a private dock, small pool and cabana, an outdoor kitchen, full bath, and workout space.

Jessica Simpson is married to former NFL player Eric Johnson and continues to sing, act, and maintain her wildly successful fashion line, Jessica Simpson Collection.

Ashlee Simpson is also an entrepreneur and is married to actor and musician Evan Ross, son of Motown musical legend Diana Ross.
