The couple, who have been dating since August 2019, first purchased their five-bedroom Los Angeles "dream home" in June 2020.
After years of Deschanel working on the interior design of the property while Scott focused on the construction, the pair finally unveiled the finished project in a June 2022 issue of Jonathan and his twin brother Drew's magazine Drew + Jonathan Reveal.
"It was really hands-on for both of us," Deschanel said in the cover story. "Many Saturdays, we sat searching for the right details to add to this home."

She added: "This is a house that suits our tastes and needs, aesthetically and functionally. Jonathan is so amazing at figuring that out. He's been doing it for his clients for so long, and now he's done that for us and our family."
