Taylor Swift's property portfolio is one of the most impressive in the industry – explore her most notable properties

In 2019, Taylor Swift proclaimed, 'I'd never walk Cornelia Street again,' paying tribute to the home that is (arguably) the most famous in her property portfolio. However, while Cornelia Street celebrates the singer's Manhattan abode, Swift's property collection spans far beyond the Big Apple.

Swift, who intertwines personal stories into her discography, has since made reference to her Rhode Island mansion (via The Last Great American Dynasty) and her home in the British capital in So Long, London. Beyond this, she has connections to real estate in Nashville, Beverly Hills, and various other neighborhoods in New York City.

Swift, who has entered the early stage of the final leg of her Eras tour, has spent much of the last year away from home, but in December, she will likely return to the properties she knows all too well.

Inside Taylor Swift's property portfolio

Here, we explore Swift's most notable estates (categorizable as some of the world's best homes), including the house that started it all...

Swift's first apartment in Nashville, Tennessee

Taylor's first home (away from her family) was a 3,240-square-foot condo in the heart of Nashville's Music Row. She purchased it when she was only 20 years old. Home to record label offices, radio stations, and recording studios, Music Row is at the heart of Nashville’s country music industry – the perfect base for the rising star.

The apartment, which reportedly cost $1.99 million, features three bedrooms and is situated on the corner of the complex. It has soaring floor-to-ceiling windows that maximize the urban views. The home also has access to the complex's amenities, including the heated Olympic-length pool, a personal trainer, and a gym for residents.

Her first Beverly Hills home

With her music career continuing to flourish, Taylor made her way to Los Angeles, making her first Beverly Hills purchase in April 2011.

The home boasts three impressive bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms and is located on nearly an acre and a half of land, making it a perfect escape for the growing star. The home is reported to have cost her $3.55 million and was sold in May 2018 in a private, off-market deal for $4 million.

The Cape Cod-style cottage home is said to have made a comfortable sanctuary for the star as she adjusted to the limelight.

Her second Beverly Hills home

In 2012, just one year after purchasing her first Beverly Hills home, Taylor bought a second modern mid-century style bungalow in the area for $1.78 million.

The home features a 1,000-bottle climate-controlled wine cellar, a private courtyard and garden, and a pool.

A contrast to some of her more traditional period properties, the bungalow also had more modern statement floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors throughout, opening up the space to nature.

The house was used primarily as a guesthouse and was later sold alongside her first Beverly Hills home for $2.65 million in 2018.

Watch Hill House, Westerly, Rhode Island

In 2013, Swift made one of her biggest purchases yet with a $17.75 million Rhode Island mansion. Paid for in cash, the 12,000-square-foot beach holiday home became the go-to location for parties with her 'girl squad,' members of which include A-listers like Cara Delevinge, Gigi Hadid (who shared a photo from the yard below) and Ruby Rose. As mentioned, her Watch Hill home also inspired Swift’s track titled The Last Great American Dynasty from her 2020 album Folklore.

Taylor's time at the house did not come without its issues, however, after the house made headlines in 2019 when teenagers crashed a stolen car into the front gate after being pursued by police.

Built in 1930, the mansion sits at the highest part of Watch Hill, Rhode Island, and allows for impressive views of the beach and ocean. The home also has access to a staggering 700 feet of shoreline.

Inside the home, there are seven stunning bedrooms, each with impressive fireplace ideas, nine bathrooms, and a private pool – just in case you didn't fancy a dip in the surrounding sea.

The Tribeca apartments

In February 2014, the Pennsylvania native decided on not one but two penthouses in the NYC Tribeca neighborhood.

With a taste for large homes, Taylor combined both of the apartments to create one large, 8,309-square-foot condo complete with ten bedrooms and ten bathrooms. The property was rumored to cost her around $20 million and was previously owned by director Peter Jackson.

With the double condo seemingly not enough for the star and her growing squad, the property mogul purchased the red brick townhouse directly next door in 2017. The three-floor property was built in 1915 and has since been extensively renovated by architect and designer Leopoldo Rosati.

The Cornelia Street Home

Perhaps the most famous of Swift's homes, 23 Cornelia Street, made famous from aforementioned track (that appears on her Lover album), was formerly a horse-drawn carriage, dating back to 1870.

Swift rented the home from the former owner, Soho House executive David Aldea, for a few months between 2016-2017 – while her $50 million TriBeCa loft underwent renovations. Though not as expensive as her original property, 23 Cornelia Street is now the home that's most synonymous with the singer.

The Goldwyn Estate project

By far Taylor's most impressive undertaking to date was the purchase of the $25 million Goldwyn estate in 2015.

The star decided to completely renovate and restore the home to its original condition in honor of the home's namesake, award-winning director, and producer, Samuel Goldwyn.

Painstaking work was carried out to dutifully restore the property to its 1934 condition when it was built for the Goldwyn family. In 2018, Taylor applied for and was granted, Los Angeles landmark status for the house, ensuring that it will never be significantly changed or demolished if she chooses to sell it on.

Taylor still owns the impressive 10,982-square-foot mansion in Beverly Hills with the house one of the biggest in her portfolio.

Boasting seven bedrooms and ten bathrooms, the luxurious Georgian revival home is one for the history books.

The Swift family home, Nashville

Not all of the property that Taylor owns is just for her and her girl squad, however, with the star purchasing an elaborate Greek revival state known as 'The Northumberland Estate' in 2011 for her parents.

Taylor reportedly spent just $2.5 million on the 5,600-square-foot home, made up of four bedrooms and five baths, as well as a 2,000-square-foot guesthouse.

Built in 1934 by Guilford Dudley Jr, former US Ambassador to Denmark, the home sits on six acres of land in the elite suburb of Forest Hills.

Where is Taylor Swift's UK house?

As Swift hints in So Long, London, she's believed to have lived in a rented home near Hampstead Heath in North London. Swift lived with her ex-boyfriend, British native Joe Alwyn, primarily over the Covid-19 pandemic lockdowns.
