Despite its value, some neighbors and commentators have mocked the house for not being modernized, according to journalist<strong> Tom Sykes<\/strong>.

It&#8217;s kind of shameful because, of course, in America, if you&#8217;re a billionaire and you buy a house for $14 million, I mean, what&#8217;s the first thing you do? Knock it down, you know, or at the very least remodel it, you know?&#8221; the journalist said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n        <\/figure>\n        \n<p>The discussion gained attention after interior design content creator <strong>Sara Parker<\/strong> shared a video praising the property\u2019s appearance. She highlighted features such as the outdoor stone kitchen and the overwater tea room, saying the home felt inviting and unique. Parker also said she was happy Meghan Markle had not changed the kitchen decor, which some critics had previously described as old-fashioned. In addition, many social media users agreed with her opinion, commenting that the mansion is beautiful and arguing that people criticizing the home were simply jealous of the couple\u2019s lifestyle.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\">\n        <blockquote class=\"tiktok-embed\" cite=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@.sara_parker\/video\/7550830908555660575\" data-video-id=\"7550830908555660575\" data-embed-from=\"oembed\" style=\"max-width:605px; min-width:325px;\">\n<section> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"@.sara_parker\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@.sara_parker?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">@.sara_parker<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s step inside Meghan Markle and Prince Harry\u2019s $29 million Montecito estate <a title=\"princeharryandmeghan\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/princeharryandmeghan?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">#princeharryandmeghan<\/a> <a title=\"meghanmarkle\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/meghanmarkle?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">#meghanmarkle<\/a> <a title=\"homereview\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/homereview?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">#homereview<\/a> <a title=\"interiordesign\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/interiordesign?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">#interiordesign<\/a> <a title=\"housetour\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/housetour?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">#housetour<\/a> <\/p>\n<p> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"\u266c original sound - Sara Parker | Interiors\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/music\/original-sound-7550830891786849054?refer=embed\" rel=\"noopener\">\u266c original sound &#8211; Sara Parker | Interiors<\/a> <\/section>\n<\/blockquote>\n        <\/figure>\n        \n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Despite the criticism over the former royal couple and their current home, many fans believe that their house e matches Meghan\u2019s lifestyle brand, As Ever, which focuses on comfort and natural living.
