Overview

  • Jonathan Scott told People he would “absolutely” leave Los Angeles to find a property with acreage similar to the 160-acre ranch where he grew up.
  • His HGTV series Chasing the West, co-hosted with brother Drew Scott, filmed in Texas, Arizona, Northern California and Southern California and rekindled his longing for wide-open land.
  • Zooey Deschanel embraces horseback riding and open space but is reluctant to take on the “dirty work” required by ranch maintenance.
  • The couple continue to reside in the Los Angeles home they purchased in 2020 and fully renovated over two years into a vibrant family oasis.
  • Two years after his proposal in Scotland, Scott says he and Deschanel have yet to make any wedding plans as they prioritize family time and ongoing projects.
