Paul McCartney, tired of staying in hotels, has bought a $4 million, 4,700-square-foot house in the Hollywood Hills.
The former Beatle purchased the French Country-style house from rocker-actress Courtney Love, who bought it in 1997 from Ellen DeGeneres.
McCartney and his late wife, Linda, lived primarily in a farmhouse in England but spent much time at their ranch in Tucson, Ariz.
His privacy will be guaranteed at the new home, which is built on nearly two acres and has a long, gated driveway and stone walls.

Before closing escrow about a week ago, McCartney had been leasing the home from Love.
