Seth MacFarlane Bought a Very Zen Home on Malibu Beach for $16M
Fart joke connoisseur and “Family Guy” creator Seth MacFarlane picked up a stunning beachside house in Malibu, California, by plunking down $15.68 million. Per Variety, the 43-year-old purchased the glass-walled manse from Cindy Landon, widow of late television star Michael Landon back in July of 2019, but the new owner wasn’t revealed until recently.
This isn’t MacFarlane’s main house — that one is located above Beverly Hills. Instead, this one has all the makings of a vacation home. It’s open and airy, and sits on a bluff with direct access to the beach. Want to take a look through MacFarlane’s newest property? Read on.

The Living Room
Breath is the link between mind and body. Yes, you knew it would be on here, so we’ve. Learning through every struggle and being grateful for it all.” Armie then allegedly said, “I’ve gotten a lot of offers from girls who said I can eat pieces of them haha.”.
The $15.68 million price tag MacFarlane paid for this six-bedroom house was a great deal for the seller. Landon had purchased the home for $7.5 million in 2015, although she spent some cash renovating and expanding the house while she lived there.

For MacFarlane, the price tag is relatively little. The animator is rumored to be worth around $200 million.

Recharging in this house must be an excellent way for MacFarlane to come up with new episodes for his newest show, “The Orville.” The show has moved from Fox to Hulu for its third season and is slated to premiere there in late 2020.
The Master Bathroom
The master bathroom is very Zen, with minimalistic dual sinks and a soaking tub surrounded by polished black pebbles.

If you’re wondering whether or not MacFarlane has someone to share that Jack and Jill setup with, so are the gossip papers. MacFarlane was rumored to be dating his former “Orville” co-star, Halston Sage, although nothing was confirmed (she is now dating Charlie Puth). Sage played Alara Kitan, who was given a send-off episode in season two after the actress quit the show.

The shower is all glass. Even if you’re self-conscious, at least the views are great.
The Office
This spot, fashioned into a little office space, could be where MacFarlane whips up another episode of “Family Guy.” The show has been on for 20 years and is currently in its 18th season.

MacFarlane’s foray into feature films has been successful as well. “Ted” made $549 million worldwide on a $50 million budget. Its sequel, “Ted 2,” made $215 million worldwide on a $68 million budget.
The Game Room
The ground floor features a large gaming room, with one huge wall of glass.

Tucked into this corner near an outside sliding door is a small wet bar with Sub-Zero appliances. No Pawtucket Patriot Ale, though.

Actually, it might hold over 1,000. There’s also a humidor somewhere near here.

The master bathroom isn’t the only thing that’s Zen about this bluff-side property. In this area, there’s a gazebo and koi pond. For Seth, it might be about smoking some weed…and maybe bringing his parents along for the session.
The Grounds
The house sits on one-third of an acre of pristinely manicured grounds.
To the Beach
The house has direct access to the beach.
The Exterior
There’s enough room for about six cars in the motor court.

From this view, you can see the Zen garden, a wonderful spot to listen to the ocean and appreciate the beautiful Malibu climate. Or think of new ways to rip on Meg.
