Jason Statham and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley are building a $33 million forever home on England’s South Coast, a 20-acre seafront project that includes its own 1,200-foot private beach, a boating lake and a wild swimming pond.

The single-level house is being built in a brutalist style and shaped as a U around a central courtyard, with a sleek lap pool at its heart. It will have five bedrooms, a fully equipped gym, an indoor lap pool and a separate outbuilding for stables, while an enormous treehouse is going up for the couple’s children, Jack, eight, and Isabella, four.

The project marks a clear shift for the couple, who have been together since 2010 and recently sold their Malibu beach house. They have also been spending more time in the UK, including at their Chelsea townhouse, even as work continues on the coastal retreat.

The new home sits moments from a naturist beach and was originally designed by one of the Royal Family’s trusted architects before being reimagined to suit Statham’s minimalist taste. That mix of high-end ambition and stripped-back design has turned the site into something more than a celebrity build: it is the physical shape of the life the pair say they want next.

Huntington-Whiteley has described the plan as a move toward something slower and more grounded, saying she has been dreaming of it since she left home and wants a place that feels “mud and kids climbing trees” with peace. She has also called the vision “rustic, outdoorsy, wild, simple,” and the scale of the property suggests the couple mean it literally.

Still, the build has not gone unnoticed by the people living nearby. Locals have reportedly been frustrated by construction traffic, a reminder that even a home designed for privacy begins with disruption on the way there. Statham has been spotted walking along the nearby beach with friends, including Vinnie Jones, while the estate continues to take shape behind him.

The answer to the question behind the project is already clear: this is not a holiday house or a status symbol, but a long-term family base designed to keep the couple in Britain and close to the coast. If the build stays on course, the mansion will stand as Statham and Huntington-Whiteley’s permanent reset — less Malibu, more South Coast, and built for the life they say they want to live now.
