The couple have been buying real estate in the popular seaside town just outside of Santa Barbara for several years.
The popular TV presenter is a fan of moving houses and has reportedly bought and sold more than 20 over the past 20 years.

Not an option for the Sussexes, who want to create a cozy nest with their two children, Archie (2) and Lilibet (10 months).
The property offers all kinds of amenities.
The luxurious residence has nine bedrooms, 16 bathrooms, a private gym, a huge garden with a chicken coop and a private tennis court.
Recently, however, reports have been circulating that Meghan and Harry are looking for a new home.
The villa, which they bought from a Russian entrepreneur, is said to be a real "horror house" with a horrifying past.
In addition, a terrible stench from a nearby salt marsh is said to put off staying outdoors.
According to “Mirror”, there is also around $130,000 in municipal taxes due annually.*
Prince Harry's brother Prince William (39) is also currently looking for an apartment.
The family of five should move to Windsor* this summer to be closer to Queen Elizabeth II (95) and to keep an eye on Prince Andrew (62).
