I'm Sara Goren this is open house NYC we

have a great show for you with amazing

homes all over the country including a

modern Miami stunner and wheat or a pair

of West Coast homes one with Fame for

talking for great Mahlon and the other

with will afford co-star of the e hitch

flip it like Disick and we're in the

Hamptons for a fun tour inside a stately

home dubbed hobby hill but first this

gramercy showstopper with a unique

history and provenance I designed the

rug to read some girls were born with

glitter in their veins guilty as charged

welcome to open house NYC today I'm

coming to you from this five-story

townhouse on the Upper West Side built

in the late 1800s its Gilded Age charm

has been beautifully preserved from the

stately facade to the ornate

architectural details on the inside this

entertainers dream has plenty of spaces

to mingle with your guests inside and

out there's even a roof garden with

river views the serene master suite also

has a terrace where you can wind down in

style one of seven bedrooms in this

approximately 8,000 square foot home

this week we are taking a look at homes

all over the country but we are getting

started in the Gramercy Park

neighborhood with Houston based designer

Lucinda Loya this former Chapel has had

quite a provenance with ties to New York

history and rock and roll royalty this

open space with soaring ceilings is

Lucinda's home in the city and she

created fashion-forward areas that are

eclectic and welcoming hi I'm Lucinda

principle of Lucinda Loya interiors

welcome to my fashion inspired apartment

in Gramercy

this building was owned by two prominent

families the Stuyvesant's and the

Rutherford's in fact Stuyvesant Park is

just across the street

it was then sold to a Presbyterian

Church in this great room became a

chapel actually it's called Clapton

chapel because Eric Clapton used to live

here this is a one-of-a-kind room in New

York City but it did have its challenges

I had this incredible ceiling accented

with gold medallions and I did not want

to detract from the beauty so it

occurred to me that the best color

palette was no color palette at all

everywhere in this great room you will

see white furniture with accents of

black and gold so once I made up my mind

I purchased this white and gold suit of

lights for my husband you know what they

say happy husband happy another

challenge of this space was that it was

wide open so I sectioned it off into

three areas the kitchen the dining in

this living room I wanted to make each

section unique to itself at the same

time I wanted the color palette to

remain cohesive here in the living room

I wanted to make a fashion statement so

I purchased these pieces from MRSA

wonders dress collection and I dressed

it in white and gold and I placed them

all around this industrial coffee table

and for a little bling I started this

Golden Apple collection it is the Big

Apple you know the dogs they were just

pretty and white and all of this makes

the perfect entertainment spot every

party in my house includes amazing fare

so I needed an amazing place to serve it

I had this table made in white ultra

suede with gold nail heads it's large

enough to serve 10 guests and of course

it's in keeping with my color palette

this is a great table for dinner parties

but I couldn't resist putting something

fabulous in the middle of this room I

found these two amazing pieces by

Raffaella Vogel to take advantage of

these two window nooks I fitted these

two buffets on either side of the dining

room and what better place to display my

Forna sette play collection and since I

want to be a part

at all I put my stylish office right

here did I ever imagine

I would have all of this in New York

City well as Megan Whitmarsh said all is

possible but these stairs is aloft with

a perfect view of the great room and a

guest room it's small but with bold

patterns and a lot of personality as I

mentioned I love fashion and our bedroom

is a designer's dream I continued the

same palette and I covered my walls in a

gold and silver wallpaper because after

all what's fashion without a bit of

sparkle I designed this bed to mimic a

Chanel handbag I picked up these

reflective gold chain nail pillows from

a local discount store it's the perfect

amount of pop I reserved the corner of

the room as a primping spot and I look

forward to sitting in my comfortable

Marcel wanders bell-bottom chair every

morning my closet is the perfect refuge

for a fashionista I have accessories

everywhere because I believe accessories

can make or break an outfit or a home in

having two stylish divas I of course

brought the fashion inspiration in their

room as well I designed the rug to read

some girls were born with glitter in

their veins guilty as charged

the beds were designed to mimic crowns

and the dresser was made from panels

that I purchased through a Fendi store

inspiration is everywhere

[Music]

this is a unique space and designing it

really let me spread my wings here I was

inspired by my passion for fashion but

as long as your designs are inspired by

all things you love it will be a success

I hope you enjoyed the tour coming back

to the break we are taking a stroll or a

roll out east and watermill see what I

mean when we come right back

[Music]

welcome back to open house NYC now

summer may be over oh but we are not

done yearning for the Sun the beach and

all else that's so closely associated

with the Hamptons so we journeyed out to

Water Mill to tour this stately property

dubbed hobby hill it said I'm nearly two

acres of beautifully manicured grounds

inside the home is filled with fine wood

details and design touches that make it

feel one-of-a-kind

check this out hi I'm Joe Pesci Nene

with Coldwell Banker global luxury

welcome to the Hamptons today I'm going

to show you a magnificent Arts & Crafts

style home sited on one point seven

acres watermill New York there's so many

surprises both inside and out so what

are we waiting for

come on insect this home is called hobby

hill and it's located on top of a gentle

slope the story begins as soon as you

enter the whimsical front gates you

enter on a long hedge driveway which

spills out into this regal estate that

makes you feel like you've been

transported to the English countryside

but before we see the grounds you have

to see the inside

here we are in the foyer this is where

you first see the Arts and Crafts style

that runs all throughout the interior

just look at the mahogany wood paneling

the conference ceilings and the stained

glass windows and doors it's warm its

inviting and it's memorable right from

the get-go and that never lets up the

mahogany continues right into this

library it's a great place to display

our artwork and collections the rare

lapis lazuli fireplace is a perfect

focal point this is the best place to be

before or after dinner

[Music]

the formal dining room shows off a theme

that runs throughout the whole home that

is bringing the outside in these large

picture windows frame the grounds

beautifully and make for the ideal

living artwork the round table seats 10

and the alabaster marble chandelier

emits a warm glow for more casual dining

options

there's the screened-in porch which just

happens to be perfect for summer soirees

I know I've been to a few let's face it

the kitchen is always the center of

every party and this one's no different

the warm wood cabinetry contrasts

beautifully with the marble countertop

in island but what makes this kitchen

really awesome is the fact that it has

direct access to and serves the dining

room the screened-in porch and this bar

room this onyx bar makes you want to

pour some rows a and the owners created

this opening so if you're on the

screened-in porch you can always get a

refill Cheers

there's still a lot to see so follow me

upstairs there's three bedrooms each

with its own Terrace and the master

bedroom

not only has its own Terrace but also a

staircase down to the pool this is what

the owners affectionately call the

jungle room for its day core theme it's

such a cool room with its brick flooring

and shingle walls and huge sliding glass

doors that lead to what this home is all

about the outside this is the Hamptons

which means not just beautiful beaches

and homes but gorgeous grounds look

around hobby Hill does not disappoint

there's nearly two acres with rolling

lawns and mature trees not only that

there's plenty of seating areas for

ideal alfresco entertaining pool parties

barbecues the possibilities are endless

there's even a fairytale inspired secret

garden and if your friends don't believe

you invite them to stay in their very

own guest house trust me they'll be

believers in hobby Hill and all its

glories before you know

well I hope I've made a believer out of

you

hobby Hill is not just one of my

favorite places in watermill but it's

one of my favorite places in all of the

Hamptons so I hope you've enjoyed taking

a look at this one of a kind of state

with me

thanks for coming and I'll see you next

time coming back the break pop star

turned design maven Williford shows us

around the labor of love she calls home

we'll be right back

[Music]

you're watching open house NYC now we're

at the Toluca Lake bungalow of interior

designer Williford

Willa began her career as a pop singer

in the early aughts and has turned her

experiences traveling the world into a

keen eye for style and comfort she's

also one of the co stars of the hit flip

it like Disick

let's join her for a closer look at the

place she and her family call home

what's up guys I'm Willa Ford I am the

principal designer of w ford interiors

and you may have seen me on flip it like

Disick today I am gonna show you my

personal home it is a Los Angeles 1922

Spanish bungalow we completely renovated

this thing and brought it back to its

original glory I'm so excited to show

you guys the property come on let's go

[Music]

so the first thing you see when you walk

in my home is this amazing living room

you're gonna see these high voltage

ceilings with this Dutch colonial

influence because that was a big thing

that happened in the 1920s to all these

Spanish homes then you're gonna see this

gorgeous fireplace which was 1970s rock

I ripped all that out and tried to give

it what I thought would be more original

and modern and then you're gonna see all

original bottle glass windows from the

1920s and my pair of gondola sofas that

sat in storage for two years from a

vintage store I finally got them

recovered and put them in my home

[Music]

welcome to the dining room what I love

about my dining room is I totally did a

high low life design I did this

live-edge slab table which was high but

I paired it with Target chairs that's a

super high tip so you can spend money in

one area save and the other see you

balanced out and then this vase I love

this space

I tried to put this vase in scott

disick's home he did not like it it came

home with Mama but my favorite part is

the bar I love that I can entertain here

but more importantly work mom like

balanced storage for my kids toys

[Music]

the welcome to the master bedroom my

favorite thing in here is our don't give

up the ship flag and then my husband

needed a really really high bed cuz he

has a special box spring from playing in

the NFL so I had an issue I need to

figure out nightstands I bought dressers

I'm Allah this is the amazing retreat

that I built for myself and my husband

he really doesn't like normal tubs and

he wanted something that felt like a

locker room tub so he could completely

submerge so we did this instead of a

stainless steels tub and one of my

favorite tips about this bathroom is we

use subway tile which subway tile never

goes out of style but when you use it

all the way to the ceiling it looks like

a much more luxe material even though

this house had great bones the reason we

bought this house is for what I'm about

to show you the backyard what better way

to anchor a space than this awesome

European fountain that we have we love

entertaining people right here at our

dining space I feel like this pool is

truly the anchor of the house I love

that it's not bright blue but it's

really monotone and monochromatic with

all of the landscaping the green outside

and in the back corner it's my favorite

part

I love growing fruits and vegetables

cause I'm a farmer's daughter and a pro

parent tip I would say is if your kids

grow it with you they'll eat it

[Music]

thank you so much for joining me on my

home tour this house truly has been a

labor of love for my husband and I until

next time see ya coming back to the

break we're in Miami for a look at a

sprawling design forward penthouse high

above the city don't go anywhere

[Music]

welcome back to open house NYC now we're

in Miami for a look at the largest

single floor condominium in the whole

city the apartment is well over ten

thousand six hundred square feet and

filled with unique design and

architectural touches take a look at

this

hello I'm Brian Silverson Douglas

Elliman Miami today I'll be showing you

this magnificent penthouse at the grow

at Graham Bay Coconut Grove this

property is the largest condo on one

floor in Miami

the architect PRK angles decided to find

a way to spin the actual structure of

the building as it goes off giving me

the unique footprint that you really

don't see anywhere well I have a lot to

show you let's take a look around so

when you first come off the elevator

into the apartment you enter into what

we would call a great room it actually

is divided down through four different

spaces the first being an informal

setting room secondly in a formal

sitting room which has good panels so

you can actually block it off if needed

and then you have a beautiful dining

room and then at the other end you'll

have our area the apartment being 11,000

square feet on one floor with 12-foot

ceilings

it also has 2,500 square foot or outside

space the Balkans run the whole length

of the apartment something like this is

virtually impossible to find the setting

that close to the water and then having

the angle to see the skyline of Miami

it's pretty unique to say the least

[Music]

so the north end of the apartment has

the master suite it starts with a

library and office this massive bedroom

it has a Sikh dressing room

midnight kitchen bathroom with two tubs

and oversized showers of course the best

part has to be this view on one end you

have the panoramic vistas of the city

skyline and the other the serene views

of Biscayne Bay and beyond just imagine

taking in the sunset the class of mind

and your very own wraparound Terrace

enjoying this beautiful use it just

doesn't get any better than this

what player plays to end this tour then

on this oversized balcony where you can

have an intimate gathering with about

500 of your best friends this is truly a

one-of-a-kind masterpiece sitting on top

of an architectural marvel in the center

actually of the heart of Miami it's as

good as it gets

thank you very much for joining me today

I hope you enjoyed the tour coming up

just after the break photographer Gray

Malin shows us his West Hollywood dream

home we'll be right back

[Music]

welcome back to open house NYC now with

photographer and author great Mahlon in

Los Angeles though known for his

signature sun-drenched aerials of

beaches gray has evolved into a

lifestyle of Renaissance maven with

projects that range from interior design

DIY travel and even advice one of his

mottos is make every day a getaway I

love that and he truly embodied that in

the design of his own West Hollywood

home see how hi everyone I'm Graeme

Allen

bye art photographer and New York Times

bestselling author and today I'm

thrilled to take you inside my house

which I recently moved into here in West

Hollywood our entire house has this

colonial southern look which is really

unique for West Hollywood let's go on

inside

and I'll give you the Grand Tour

our family room is by far the most

comfortable room in the entire house so

the standout moment in our family room

is the wall of glass that sits facing

the backyard it brings all the natural

light in and we even have two banana

leaf plants that extenuate the greenery

right into the room and to finish it all

off we added these low glass tables

below the artwork which are filled with

some of my favorite books and little fun

quirky items I picked up from my travels

next we're gonna head upstairs and check

out my little coastal retreat

this room was actually inspired by a

trip we took to the Bahamas and we

wanted to bring in some warmth and a

little bit of old-world pattern and

textile we decided to paint the

fireplace a dark blue we mirrored that

with the dark blue painted on the back

of the French doors the bed in this room

is definitely a WOW factor

we decided to add a balance above that

anchors the room but one of the most

unique spots in the entire house is our

Sun Deck so let's head upstairs and take

a look at that

welcome to the Sun Deck this is a total

escape from the rest of the house

since our home is located right in the

center of Los Angeles

we have views of iconic spots like the

Hollywood sign and even downtown LA I

love that we also have an outdoor

kitchen up here with a grill so we can

have dinner we can also sit down relax

have a cocktail it's just a true oasis

in the middle of such a bustling city

[Music]

thank you all so much for joining me on

this tour of my house designing this

home has been a real journey just like a

lot of my artwork and I look forward to

seeing you next time
