Bedford Corners NY Homes | Taylor Swifts Lists Nashville Home for $1.45M
Source: People Magazine
It looks like singer Taylor Swift is continuing to cut her ties to the country. The blonde-tressed 21-year-old currently owns two properties in Tennessee — a modern penthouse condo downtown and a large brick estate that just went back on the Nashville real estate market for $1.45 million.
Swift bought the 1925 mansion in September 2010, but in early 2011 she made the jump to the Golden Coast, picking up a Craftsman-style home in Beverly Hills for $3,550,000. The gated compound sits on 1.5 acres and was purchased by Swift, reportedly so she didn’t have to stay in hotels while in L.A.
Bursting onto the country pop scene with her hit “Tim McGraw,” Swift has had a host of number one songs as well as awards, including four Grammys, five Academy of Country Music awards, six Country Music Association awards and a staggering 12 Billboard Music Awards.
Although most celebs have multiple places they call home, Real Estalker speculates this home may have been the one Swift purchased for her parents and perhaps they — not her — decided to put it up for sale.
Regardless of the inhabitants, Taylor Swift’s Nashville mansion is back on the market for $50,000 more than it was purchased a year ago, although median Nashville home prices have dropped 7.8 percent year-over-year. According to the property listing, the home is priced below “actual cost” and the listing photos “do not reflect the latest renovations.”
Even without photos of the latest upgrades, the home is stunning. Built in 1941 and situated behind gates atop a curving gravel drive, the house has 4,929 square feet of living space, four bedrooms and five bathrooms.
Architectural details include original hardwood floors, custom woodwork and hand-crafted plaster ceilings.
The listing is held by Amy Smith of French Christianson Patterson.

Candy Spelling mansion sells for 43% below list price
House was on market for several years at $150M
The sale of Candy Spelling’s mansion — on the market for several years at $150 million — closed Thursday for what turned out to be a 43 percent discount.
British heiress Petra Ecclestone reportedly paid $85 million for the 57,000-square-foot mansion, built by Spelling’s famed late husband, TV producer Aaron Spelling.
The Spelling mansion was marketed by a Beverly Hills affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate, Hilton & Hyland.
Listing broker Jeff Hyland, joking with the Los Angeles Times that the brokerage had no trouble prequalifying buyers, said that if they were not on a Forbes list of the most wealthy, “it was very easy to decline the showing.”
More than a half-dozen homes priced at $20 million or more have already sold in West Los Angeles this year, the Times reported, and price reductions of 40 percent or more are not uncommon.
To the north, Tommy Hilfiger Corp. co-founder Joel Horowitz last month knocked $25 million off the original $100 million asking price for Tranquility, an eight-building, 210-acre estate overlooking Lake Tahoe that’s been on the market since 2006.
The record sale price for a U.S. single-family home remains the $100 million Russian venture capitalist Yuri Milner paid in March for a 25,500-square-foot limestone mansion in Los Altos Hills, Ca.

Bedford Corners NY Homes | Million Dollar Home Developer Targets Small House Buyers for the Bedford Corners NY real estate market
Last week’s AIA Housing Trends Survey indicated that Americans may already be turning away from smaller homes and building bigger again, after the 2008 housing market crash caused a decline for the first time in decades. This morning I spotted an item in the Middletown, New York, Times Herald-Record that gives me anecdotal hope about housing size.
In “Home Developer Thinks Small,” the newspaper reports that luxury home developer Woodstone Development is offering a new product for its gated community of million-dollar, 5,000-square-foot luxury homes in Bethel, New York: 1,250-square-foot Adirondack cabins with a starting price of $279,000. “Up until this point, we’ve only really addressed the top of the pyramid,” Howard Schoor, Woodstone’s chairman and CEO, told the newspaper. “This is designed more to meet the realities of 2011 — that people are downsizing.” Schoor believes the smaller, less expensive homes will attract younger, more upwardly mobile home buyers.
A National Association of Home Builders’ (NAHB) survey released in April predicted that homes will become greener and smaller by 2015. According to Builder magazine, the average home is currently about 2,380 square feet, but the NAHB expects that to be 2,150 square feet by 2013. Stephen Melman, NAHB director of economic services, says that affordability is key. Home buyers, especially those looking at custom homes, are saying ‘This is how much I can spend. How can we make it fit?’ ” he says.
Surveys can be wrong. I firmly believe that we’ll see tremendous growth in the small home market yet.
