Tom Selleck’s journey from Hollywood highlife to a tranquil ranch in Ventura, California, reflects his desire for a more balanced life. Despite Magnum PI’s success, Selleck left the show, craving a “three-dimensional life.” His 65-acre ranch, bought in 1988 for over $5 million, features a Spanish-style colonial-era house, stables, a swimming pool, tennis court, a putting course, and even a heliport.
Selleck, a private individual, values family time over Hollywood glamour. He disconnects from work when at the ranch, engaging in the daily chores and enjoying the tangible results of ranch life. His ranch provides a stark contrast to the abstract nature of show business.
