Lisa Lampanelli Puts Fairfield Home On The Market

FAIRFIELD, CT — Former standup comedian turned life coach Lisa Lampanelli is selling her beachside home in Fairfield, the Connecticut Post reports. Lampanelli is perhaps best known for her appearances on the Comedy Central Roasts, the Howard Stern Show, the “Tonight Show with Jay Leno” and as a contestant on the fifth season of NBC’s “Celebrity Apprentice.” Lampanelli raised $130,000 for the Gay Men’s Health Crisis during her time on the show and advanced all the way to the final five before she was fired by eventual President Donald Trump.

Lampanelli retired from standup comedy in late 2018. The former insult comic is now “dedicating her life to running transformational food and body-image workshops, performing in issue-oriented storytelling shows, and completing a rigorous life-coaching certification program,” according to her website. Lampanelli recently led a three-part workshop, “Love Your Body, Feed Your Soul,” at the Pequot Library in Southport.

Lampanelli lost more than 100 pounds with the help of bariatric surgery in 2012 and “went on to speak with unflinching honesty about her lifelong food and body-image issues, and has since gone from insulter to inspirer,” her website states.

Lampanelli’s beach house, located at 1053 Fairfield Beach Rd., has been featured on HGTV. The home, which was built in 2002, boasts nearly 3,900-square feet of livable space, four bedrooms and three and a half baths. The asking price is $2.45 million. Lampanelli purchased the home for $2.21 million in 2012, according to Realtor.com.

“This contemporary colonial was designed to have an open airy feel and a flexible floor plan that allows space for everyone,” according to its listing on Realtor.com. “Whether you have a large group for parties or just relaxing after a long day this is a perfect place to come home to. Water views can be enjoyed down the long sandy beach or across Long Island Sound from the many large windows and decks. Your private beach is just steps from the water's edge, enjoy sunsets as you sit in beach chairs atop the sandy dune surrounded by sea grass.”

A single piece helix-inspired staircase leads from the main room on the first floor to the second then continues to a “private getaway” on the third level.

“The master is a spacious quiet retreat with walls of windows and a deck offering forever views across the shimmering water,” the listing states. “The kitchen is a cook friendly space. The expansive island is one step up and allows wonderful space for the cook and hang out space around the counter for friends and family. This is a special house to be enjoyed in every season, every day, all year long. You can be in for the summer and watch the fireworks from your beach patio. It doesn't get better than this.”
