(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Jennifer Aniston is said to be desperate to buy Ellen DeGeneres' home.

The actress has sold her mansion in Beverly Hills after putting it on the market for $42 million. She's been to the home of talk show host Ellen and her wife Portia de Rossi several times and is now convinced it'd make the perfect place for her.

Jennifer's romance with Justin Theroux is hotting up and she's apparently keen to find a romantic home to build their life together in.

"Jen's old home is tainted with bad memories from pervious relationships and she wants to start over. She's been to Ellen and Portia's house several times, and she always said that if they wanted to sell it she'd be first in line. Now they're in deep discussions about Jen buying it," a source told National Enquirer.

It's thought the estate is worth around $60 million. Since buying it in 2007, Ellen and Portia have extended the land by buying three nearby houses and knocking them down. It now comprises huge gardens, a fitness area and a garage big enough for ten vehicles.

"Jen wasn't really looking to buy another big home in Los Angeles but then she met Justin and then their relationship blossomed," the insider added. "Ellen's place would make an ideal love nest for them to build a life together." (C) Cover Media
