In March 2025, she opened up about her decision to relocate to the rural New York estate full time, explaining that the calm setting helped to ease the symptoms of her anxiety and OCD.<\/p>\n
Now, it seems she may well be ready to cut ties with California altogether, after bringing her Los Angeles abode to the market, where it is listed with Justin Paul Huchel of Carolwood Estates. Seyfried purchased the picturesque L.A. dwelling, which was originally built in 1916, from her Jennifer\u2019s Body co-star Adam Brody in 2011 for $2.5 million ($US1.85 million), using a trust through which she has previously released music.<\/p>\n

(seen on her NY farm). Picture: mingey\/Instagram<\/p>\n The actress previously lifted the lid on how trading the glare of the Hollywood spotlight for quaint farm life in upstate New York helped to ease her unrest.<\/p>\n Speaking to The Wall Street Journal<\/a>, she described the debilitating nature of her obsessive-compulsive disorder, revealing that she was \u201cbarely\u201d able to function when the condition was at its worst.<\/p>\n The actress, who hails from Allentown, Pennsylvania, also looked back on her childhood, admitting that she was \u201crelentlessly loud and energetic and needed constant attention\u201d when she was younger. Performing was one of the few things that helped to alleviate her symptoms early on.<\/p>\n \u201cPerforming and make-believe eased my anxieties. I was able to step outside of myself,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n However, as her acting career began to take off, Seyfried said the constant attention and \u201cstress\u201d caused her to compare herself to others around her, making her more anxious.<\/p>\n \u201cI was born with obsessive-compulsive disorder. They didn\u2019t figure that out until later, but the signs were there,\u201d she shared.<\/p>\n \u201cIf my socks weren\u2019t a certain length, I could barely function. This was true about other things. I\u2019d jump on floor tiles and not be able to continue walking until I was satisfied it was safe.\u201d<\/p>\n After she began modelling, she quickly developed body insecurities, she said. \u201cModelling was performing, but I had braces and noticed I was chubbier than everybody else, creating new anxieties. To be 11, 12, and 13 just sucked.\u201d<\/p>\n Seyfried landed the role of Karen Smith in the hit 2004 movie Mean Girls after auditioning for the lead part, Regina George.<\/p>\n However, it wasn\u2019t until she secured the lead role of Sophie in the musical film \u201cMamma Mia\u201d that she truly became a household name, taking centre stage in her first major lead role.<\/p>\n Thankfully, despite having more eyes on her, Seyfried discovered how she could calm her OCD symptoms, one of which involved setting up a full-time residence far away from the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles.<\/p>\n In 2013, nine years after Mean Girls was released, the actress moved to a 1930s farmhouse, where she and Sadoski now live with their two children \u2014 and a host of rescue animals.<\/p>\n \u201cToday, I live with my husband, actor Thomas Sadoski, and our two children on a 1930s farm in upstate New York. I fell in love with the main house\u2019s rustic stonework and the trellis between the house and stand-alone garage,\u201d she told the Journal.<\/p>\n In 2013, nine years after Mean Girls was released, the actress moved to a 1930s farmhouse, where she and Sadoski now live with their two children \u2014 and a host of rescue animals. Picture: Bruce Glikas\/Getty Images<\/p>\n While seeking calm and quiet away from Los Angeles has been integral for Seyfried maintaining her mental health, she said that caring for the animals they house on the property has been the best thing for her.<\/p>\n \u201cThe house was small, so we built onto it to add a kitchen. We use the barns as a sanctuary for rescued horses, ducks, chickens, peacocks, goats, and other animals,\u201d she went on.<\/p>\n \u201cI still have anxieties, but tending to the ageing animals keeps me from obsessing over things that don\u2019t matter. My pony, Cliff, is 38. Every day I have with him is a gift. It\u2019s grounding.\u201d<\/p>\n Further in the interview, Seyfried revealed that the home\u2019s interior is \u201cvery farmhouse.\u201d Her favourite area of the property is a \u201clittle window-box area that extends off my living room, giving me office space. It\u2019s like a cozy den,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n \u201cOn the weekends, I\u2019ll wake up with the kids on Saturday mornings, I make them breakfast, and then I sit in the window box while the kids watch \u2018Bluey,\u2019\u201d she previously told House Beautiful. \u201cI\u2019ll crochet there or just sit there \u2014 that\u2019s me decompressing. It\u2019s everything. It\u2019s my happy place.\u201d<\/p>\n She admitted that she is very particular about the kitchen and noted that she doesn\u2019t want people touching her cabinets.<\/p>\n \u201cThere\u2019s one thing that makes me want to cry: If [the kids] scratch the cabinets or people touch them with their dirty hands. I\u2019m like, \u2018Get your filthy hands off my cabinets.\u2019<\/p>\n \u201cIf you drip spaghetti sauce on it or even water or coffee, you got to clean it up right away. But nobody is as focused on the cabinets as I am. And that\u2019s OK. I do not fault that, to each their own,\u201d she confessed to House Beautiful<\/a>.<\/p>\n The adjoining barn on the property was transformed into a guesthouse, and Seyfried has focused on passing on her love for animals to her two children: Nina, 8, and Thomas, 5.<\/p>\n \u201cI can see them learning what a responsibility and treat it is to care for pets, even at their young ages. I think all pets give us purpose,\u201d she told the outlet.<\/p>\n Seyfried previously told Vogue it took her \u201c10 months\u201d to renovate the home, adding that she kept its \u201crustic charm.\u201d<\/p>\n The actress sold her Manhattan condo for $4.52 million ($US3.25 million) in 2022, having purchased the property for $2.6 million ($US1.9 million) in 2010.<\/p>\n The couple still own a home in New York City, however. It\u2019s a stunning apartment on the Upper West Side that she purchased the same year that she offloaded her former city abode.<\/p>\n Parts of this story first appeared in Realtor<\/a> and was republished with permission.<\/p>\n MORE: Hugh Jackman lover\u2019s $3.5k-a-night cash grab<\/a><\/p>\n King\u2019s shock act after Harry eviction fallout<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
