House-hunting Britney wants backyard, quiet

LOS ANGELES - Court records show Britney Spears is house-hunting — preferably for something greener, quieter and with a bigger backyard.

Documents released Monday show that Spears seeks a house with a larger yard that’s closer to parks and recreation areas for her children, Sean Preston and Jayden James. She also wants a “less trafficked” locale than her paparazzi-stalked Beverly Hills home, which she bought for nearly $7 million early last year.

Spears’ father, James, requested the sale in mid-June, and a court commissioner agreed. James Spears is acting as his daughter’s conservator following several incidents of erratic behavior by the 26-year-old singer.

The children’s father, Kevin Federline, has custody.
