Mary Kate’s NYC townhouse is the epitome of abundant elegance. it was featured on Curbed and Wall Street Journal and features a double height grand ballroom, garden room, seven fireplaces, and 22-foot high decorative wood ceilings. Its original owner, Charlotte Martin, bought about 20 homes in the east side of midtown Manhattan in 1919, remodeled them, and renamed the area Turtle Bay. Now its the home to former child star and fashion designer Mary Kate Olsen.
I can certainly appreciate the original and unique details. Any home that combines a rooftop pool with early 20th century original wood ceilings is certainly one of a kind! Oh and I’ll take a hall of mirrors and a garden room please!
It’s a bit too opulent for me, not homey enough.
Aw ow, how opulent to live in a home like this, very unique style! Thanks for sharing your opinion on my last post…Hope your week is going well.
Oh my goodness, what a stunning place and I’m in love with the wood ceilings:) Have a great day, darling.
Wow! Indeed opulence was the first word that came to my mind too!!
This is certainly a grand and stately manor. The Olsen twins have really done well for themselves.

What an awesome house! Love it!
The ceiling is amazing!
The ceilings are amazing— so many great details!
not what i was expecting, but definitely full of interest
Wow! Very New York style : lovely, interesting, cultural, etc… would definitely enjoy visiting. Certain Mary-Kate would enjoy it and not surprised the home is so elegant. A garden room will be very enjoyable; I”ve got a backyard Midwest garden and enjoy the projects and seeing the plants gloom. thanks for e-sharing info.

I definitely agree with you D.J.F. – this is such a unique New York apartment full of culture and interesting details! I’d love a garden room in my house some day too and I imagine you thoroughly enjoy working in your garden. Thanks for stopping by and have a lovely week!
