Sienna Miller, the original noughties It-girl whose perfect champagne blonde we’re still trying to emulate, has put her countryside cottage on the market — and of course, it’s as charmingly dishevelled and eye-wateringly expensive as you’d expect. Nestled in a wildflower meadow in the Buckinghamshire countryside, the thatched-roof cottage dates back to the 16th century. It is precisely the kind of home you’d imagine for the boho era‘s ultimate manic pixie dream girl.
According to Mansion Global, the property has been listed for £1.95 million or roughly $4 million AUD.
Miller, 43, acquired the home in 2004, during the height of her tabloid-saturating relationship with Alfie co-star and former fiancé Jude Law; “It was a time when there was a lot of press attention on me,” Miller told Architectural Digest in a 2022 tour of the home. “I bought the house on a whim — it offers a sanctuary. I also wanted somewhere where family and friends could gather. It has a nurturing feeling; it is a home with a heart.”
And she had good reason to need a panic-cottage. In 2024, Sienna Miller opened up about the chaotic period in an interview with James Corden, as per People.
“It makes you go completely mad, which is ideal for them [the paparazzi],” she said. “The more you spiral, the better it is in terms of selling papers and that English thing of just wanting to tear people down… it felt so celebratory and I was also so madly in love, and it was in many ways the most exciting moment.”
Miller met Jude Law on the set of Alfie when she was still a relatively unknown actress. They were engaged on Christmas Day in 2004, but she called it off in 2005 after reports emerged that Law had cheated on her with his children’s nanny but they stayed together before officially splitting in 2006. Miller and Law proved too hot and British to stay away from each other and dated again between 2009 and 2011. She has said her relationship with the actor was in many ways a dark period.”
“I’d just started working and I was in a big film and in love with this idol and very, very happy,” she told Corden. “But the flip side of it was so dark so quickly… You learn so much about yourself through that experience, but I feel very lucky to kind of still be here, which sounds dramatic.”
In 2022, Sienna Miller enlisted her friend, filmmaker Gaby Dellal, to reimagine the cottage for herself and her daughter – a project she described to Architectural Digest as creating “the biggest tiny house you’ve ever seen.” The 2,000-square-foot, picturesque dwelling has four bedrooms, four bathrooms (God forbid its inhabitants share), and a petite guesthouse, all surrounded by Dellal’s meadow of wildflowers and private gardens.
Miller has curated the space with vintage furniture and upcycled touches throughout. “Everything has a story, like the kitchen cabinets that were made from old school desks, and there is a real sense of place — it is an artistic retreat but not in any sense precious,” she told AD. “Every time I stay here, I discover new aspects.”
The property sits in the hamlet of Toweridge, near West Wycombe, about two hours from London.
Sienna does not have a husband. She is in a relationship with actor Oli Green, with whom she had a daughter in December 2023. Miller was previously engaged to actor Tom Sturridge, and the two share an 11-year-old daughter, Marlowe.
The Sun and The Daily Mail have estimated Sienna’s net worth to be around $18 million US or around $27 million AU.
