Celebrity Chef Ina Garten Built A Barn Next To Her $3.9 Million East Hampton Home To Film ‘Barefoot Contessa’ In😲. Photos in Comments. Ina and her husband Jeffrey Garten, bought the home in the 90s, and they included a right-of-first-refusal clause in the contract for an adjacent open field, allowing them the first opportunity to buy it if it ever went on sale. For a decade, Ina wrote to the property owner expressing her interest until he finally agreed to sell in 2006. She then transformed the newly acquired land into a 2,000-square-foot barn, designed by architect Frank Greenwald. This barn serves as a workspace for Ina's cooking show, Barefoot Contessa, and includes features like a well stocked pantry, a reading room for her cookbook collection, and a spacious kitchen modeled after her home kitchen, equipped with duplicate appliances for her and her assistants.
