Bullock bought the private retreat in 2001 for just $1.49 million and had been renting it for $1,400 a night (with a four-night minimum) two years ago, according to Variety.

And if you’re worried about how you’ll be able to fill all that space, rest easy. Bullock is leaving all the furnishings except for a few personal items.
