HOME TOURS: Mega Mansions & Bespoke Design | Open House TV (Full Episode)

Join host Sara Gore for an all-new Open House episode featuring a peek into four unbelievable luxury homes in New York, California, and South Carolina. We kick off this edition by meeting up with real estate advisor Jim St. Andre for a tour of 48-50 w 69th St in New York City: one of the largest and most expensive homes in New York City. The price? A cool 85,000,000. Set on an idyllic block on the Upper West Side, the story of this massive private residence — which was built in 1892 in a Renaissance Revival style — begins with drama, scale, and meticulous attention to detail that's reminiscent of the Gilded Age. The result of a years-long renovation of two townhouses, this abode boasts 19,600 square feet of luxury living which includes 5 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, 3 half baths, and interiors that have been completely redone. From the welcoming great room with its 24 ft high ceilings, two wood-burning fireplaces, and south-facing cathedral windows that fill the space with natural light to the wrap-around mezzanine level (with a lounge area for playing pool, watching movies, or taking business calls) that offers you the perfect vantage to greet your guests — and from the most angelic of dining rooms that floats over the garden with its wondrous skylight and large doors that allow for plenty of al fresco dining opportunities to the unbelievable en suite primary bedroom with a wood-burning fireplace and bucolic terrace — this deluxe UWS mansion is as grand and prominent as they come. We then link up with B. Michael - interior designer, author, and couturier - invites us into one of his client's homes in Beechhurst, NY. This project marks B. Michael's first gut renovation and the result is as stunning as it is welcoming. His client's one marching order? To enjoy complete creative control over the process. Through deft use of a subtle color palette and his expert knowledge of exquisite textiles and silhouettes, he transformed this apartment into a fashionable space to call home. From the curved chandelier in the entryway that complements the sleek console nearby to the different shades of gray on each wall to a stylish seating area adorned with blue chairs made in Italy, a sculptured rug, and commissioned art print featuring himself (per his client's request, in homage to him as the designer), this Queens abode is a balanced blend of personal, modern, and functional. After that, we journey down south to join Whitney Sudler-Smith — executive producer and (sometimes) cast member of Bravo's Southern Charm — for a tour of his estate in Charleston, South Carolina that is popularly referred to as the Isaac Jenkins Michael House. This one-of-a-kind bespoke mansion — renowned for its impressive Roman Revival facade and Italian villa aesthetic — was built around 1853 by British artisans, served as the Charleston Free Library until the 1960s, is currently listed on the National Historic registry. Right from the entryway — with its high ceilings, grand palais floors, and chinoiserie cabinet made in 18th century England — to the double drawing room that exists as a kind of pièce de résistance with its understated sense of comfort, countryside aesthetic, and apple green walls, this private residence teems with elegant upgrades, curated interior design, and resplendent architectural surprises around every corner. Next, we journey to 513 Grand Blvd. in Venice, California for a look around Stewart Burns' — a writer & producer on the iconic Simpsons and Futurama series — one-of-a-kind sculptural home. This vertical, futuristic 4-bedroom private residence, best known as the Tectonic House, features 2,522 square feet of sharp angles and torqued geometric shapes; imaginative and playful touches (including aerial silks in an entry room called the Tower); a spiral plywood structure (dubbed "The Parasite") that spirals all the way into the upper reaches of the home, serves as an art installation, and offers plenty of shelving and seating options; the use of stark metals alongside natural materials; large living spaces for members of the family to hang out; and glorious views via a generous roof deck. Last but not least, we travel to Southampton to speak with Interior designer Keith Baltimore on how he turned an empty space into a modern day paradise. The instant you step foot through the doors of this lavish property, you experience the very definition of fine living. This home prioritizes indoor-outdoor living with finishes geared for complete ease and relaxation, making it a worthwhile getaway.
