Enjoying Brad's pad? Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia de Rossi enjoy their first beach stroll since buying Mr. Pitt's Malibu mansion

They are said to have paid Brad Pitt $2m less than the asking price for his on-the-market mansion, and now it appears that Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi are reaping the rewards of their negotiating powers. 

The female power couple took their first public stroll in Malibu yesterday since purchasing the A-list actor's waterfront pad last month.

The casual couple turned romantic as they enjoyed the unseasonable winter warmth.

Enjoying the high life: Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia De Rossi took a stroll in Malibu, California yesterday

Although they initially appeared to be power walking, they ditched their trainers and walked barefoot with their arms wrapped around one another.

Both women wore matching ensembles as they enjoyed the benefits of their new community.

The 53-year-old talk show host wore a grey V-neck T-shirt, a white hat, aviators, long white board shorts and electric blue shoes.

Ah, love: The married couple wrapped their arms around one another during their beach walk

Her leggy wife showed off her trim and toned figure in a tight black T-shirt, khaki capris, a black hat, avitaors and girly pink and white Asics trainers.

The two seemed happy with their decision to purchase the actor's Malibu mansion for $12m.

They had decided to downsize and put their $49m, Architectural Digest-featured Beverly Hills compound up for sale.

No doubt they will be happy in the new beachfront estate, which includes separate houses, a pool, a tennis court and expansive lush gardens. The sprawling 4,100 square foot property also has private beach access and is set back off the Pacific Coast Highway by a long private driveway.

The main house has four bedrooms and four baths, a large chefs kitchen with stainless steel appliances, bamboo floors, three fire places and a top of the range security system.

If it's good enough for Brangelina! Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia de Rossi are eyeing Brad Pitt's $14million Malibu mansion

Given that it has been home to the most famous couple in the world it's bound to be a serious piece of real estate.

And Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia de Rossi are looking for a new love nest and are said to be eyeing on one of Brad Pitt's pads.

The 53-year-old chat show host just put her $49million Beverly Hills compound up for sale and is now looking for something smaller.

Sources tell People Magazine, Ellen and Portia, 38, are very interested in buying Brad's $14million Malibu home.

The mansion consists of two separate houses, a pool, a tennis court and expansive lush gardens.

The sprawling 4,100 square foot property also has private beach access and is set back off the Pacific Coast Highway by a long private driveway.

The main house has four bedrooms and four baths, a large chefs kitchen with stainless steel appliances, bamboo floors, three fire places and a top of the range security system.

The home has had extensive renovations in the past couple of years with an additional story added by the environmentally conscious designer Christopher R. Sorensen.

The house is just one part of a property portfolio belonging to Brad and lady love Angelina Jolie that also includes homes in Malibu, Los Angeles, New Orleans, France and Italy.

No one knows why the wealthy pair have chosen to sell the property, which is set into a hillside overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

35-year-old Reese Witherspoon was spotted looking at the home this past summer.

But in the end, the Legally Blonde star and her new husband, Jim Toth, decided not to buy it.
While the home is pricey, even by Hollywood standards, the $14million price tag is certainly no problem for Ellen DeGeneres.

The comedian and actress is said to have a net worth of about $85million.

Forbes Magazine recently listed her as one of the wealthiest women in Hollywood.

According to Reuters, last year alone Ellen made $45million thanks to her syndicated talk show and endorsement deals, including a contract with Covergirl Cosmetics.

Ellen got her start as a stand-up comedienne and has appeared in a number of films including EDtv and The Love Letter.

She also provided the voice of Dory in the Disney-Pixar animated film Finding Nemo and was a judge on American Idol for one year, having joined the show in its ninth season.

Ellen's wife Portia, a native of Australia, most recently co-starred on the TV series Better Off Ted and she also earns a sizeable income.
