The new star of the "Real Housewives of Orange County,"  Meghan King Edmonds, and her ex-Major League Baseball player (MLB) husband, Jim Edmonds, have acquired a lovely retreat home.

The Edmonds purchased a Newport Beach property for almost $2.8 million, the Los Angeles Times reported.

The 5,077-square-foot beach residence has six bedrooms, including a master suite that comes with a fireplace, a huge bath tub and a his and hers closet.

The home's listing agent was Wayne Pridgen of Hilton & Hyland, an affiliate of Christie'€™s International Realty, while Jacqueline Thompson of Surterre Properties assisted the couple.

Other living areas in the beach estate are a formal living room, formal dining rooms and a great room. Outdoors, there is a three-car garage, while the grounds display a courtyard and a patio.

The expansive property was built five years ago and features modern details that must have caught the interest of the famous couple. The two-story home is accented with marble-lined flooring and wrought-iron details. The Edmonds' residence also boasts a Tuscan style, a grand entrance, French doors, an open floor plan and a formal living theme.

The lovely 30-year-old blonde, who is about 14 years younger than her sports commentator husband, is described by Daily Mail as someone who "is not afraid to shake things up a little or poke fun of herself." This side of her may be an interesting bit for fans and viewers of Bravo TV's "Real Housewives of Orange County," which is now on its 10th season.

"I promised myself I would never marry a man who was 11 years older than me and I would never marry a professional athlete... I broke all my rules because Jim Edmonds asked me out on a date." Meghan said in a video teaser released by Bravo, as quoted by the outlet in May.

Other than his qualities, Jim may have impressed his wife with his professional credentials, too. The 45-year-old retired athlete was drafted in 1988 by the California Angels and played for 17 years, with the last ones he spent in Cincinnati Reds. He was able to gather several honors like eight Gold Glove awards and one World Series title, noted the Times.
