"Okay guys, I promised you I'd show you the finished paint job here," the Orange County fitness enthusiast said, sharing a view of the freshly painted, smoky green walls in the bedroom of her vacation home. "Now, I love this color. Green is kind of a theme throughout the house. The kitchen cabinets are painted the same color, [Benjamin Moore's] Vintage Vogue."

Panning over the cozy, sun-filled room, she continued: "There's just a few things left to do. Closet doors, casings, and I have a new light fixture ordered. But overall I love it!"

Tamra went on to reveal how she plans to decorate the home. "The previous owners left us a bunch of antiques!" she said happily. "This is one of them; it's an old sewing machine. I have a room upstairs [where] I kind of honored the previous owners, and I put all the antiques in the one room. I'll show that to you soon."

Why did Tamra Judge buy a house in Big Bear?

On Season 17 of RHOC Tamra opened up about her and husband Eddie Judge’s real estate plans. “Eddie and I have talked about buying property outside of California like just to have,” Tamra told Gina Kirschenheiter at a party she was hosting to say goodbye to CUT Fitness.

Explaining that the new home would be “a second house” and not their primary residence, Tamra explained that she and Eddie were thinking of buying in a location “like Montana.” Though she hasn't announced any plans in Montana yet, Tamra did go on to purchase her Big Bear home in August 2023.
