Leslie Bibb is trading the red carpet for the deep end as she installs a pool at her historic Upstate New York home amid a major renovation.

On Tuesday, June 30, the White Lotus actress, 52, shared an update on the construction at the 1750s abode she shares with partner Sam Rockwell, 57.

“The home reno is going swimmingly… pool is kind of in… we had to put her in early so we could run septic lines around it,” the Talladega Nights star wrote in the caption of her Instagram post. “Porches are being built… and, it’s official, i am in love with our red barn… perfect color choice shawn… xo lb.”

The post included a carousel of 15 photos and videos showing off the latest progress. In many of the visuals, Bibb is joined by her friend and designer Shawn Henderson. The update included a variety of exterior and interior shots of the under-construction home.

Beyond a look at the porches, pool and red barn, Bibb also shared a peek at a beautiful tree growing alongside a red brick building. Another picture showed the design team taking a look at antique tiling adorning the fireplace.

In the comments, Bibb’s White Lotus costar Michelle Monaghan said, “I spy water aerobics!!!.” “Deep end for us bb,” Leslie wrote back.

This isn’t the first time Bibb’s property has wowed her costars. In April, Aimee Lou Woodstopped by the property to check in on the progress. Bibb’s April 20 Instagram post included multiple cameos from the Sex Educationactress, 32, and some white frog figurines the group discovered.

Taking to her Instagram Stories that same day, Wood reshared Bibb’s post and wrote in white text, “This house is magic,” alongside a frog emoji. She also posted a photo of Bibb and Henderson smiling in a window frame at the home, calling them “a very clever pair” in the caption.

Bibb first started documenting the renovation journey in the summer of 2025. She shares many of her updates on her Instagram account, as well as on her TikTok page.

“Say hello to our new baby,” Bibb wrote in an Aug. 15, 2025, post. “Last year Sammy and i bought this beautiful 1750s house with the goal of fixing it up and making it the Upstate home of our dreams, preserving all of its original charm but making it uniquely ours.”
