Most 21 year olds are still living off their parents, but not Taylor Swift. When she was just 21 in 2011, she bought her parents a $2.5 million, 5,600 square-foot estate in Nashville, Tennessee — where the former country star got her start — right next door to where Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban lived. The home, which is also known as the The Northumberland Estate, has four bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, as well as luxe details like a marble fireplace, floor-to-ceiling windows with stunning views of the surrounding greenery, and crown moldings.
However, like a true house with Southern hospitality, there are also lots of cozy details at this Nashville property. Andrea and Scott Swift’s mansion also has navy blue dining room walls in a space that overlooks the garden outside, a den with cozy armchairs and a cowskin rug, a pool surrounded by lanterns and colorful flowers, and even a rocking chair in one of the bedrooms with a canopy bed. The abode also has historic appeal. The Northumberland Estate was built nearly a century ago by the former U.S. Ambassador to Denmark, and the Universal Music Group chairman has been one of its residents. But despite its long past, the column-style home has modern updates while still maintaining its original Southern charm.
