HOME TOURS: Bright & Eclectic Spaces in New York, California, and Turkiye | Open House TV

HOME TOURS: Bright & Eclectic Spaces in New York, California, and Turkiye | Open House TV

In this all-new episode of NBC’s Open House, join Sara Gore as she guides us through five exquisite sites located in California, New York, and Turkey.

We kick off this edition with real estate agent and ‘Real Housewives of New York’ star Kelly Killoren Bensimon inside the Police Building — one of downtown NYC’s most iconic Beaux-Arts landmarks that was built in 1909 for then police commissioner Teddy Roosevelt and served as NYPD headquarters before being turned into a private residence. In this particular segment, we explore a world of elegance at 240 Centre apartment 2K, a 3-bedroom abode where luxury meets contemporary living. With soaring 14-ft ceilings and stunning arched windows, this 3-bedroom duplex is a magnificent fusion of design and comfort. From its elevated chef’s kitchen that was recently renovated and features state-of-the-art appliances to a grand living area filled with natural light and European accents (including Liaigre-style built-in bookcases and Parisian Halophane Globe chandeliers that were formerly Eiffel Tower street lamps), this spacious residence is more than just a home—it’s a lifestyle.

And that’s not all! Kelly leads us into a SECOND apartment, where we discover the magic of loft living at 240 Centre St. Apt 3DE, a sleek, minimalist duplex nestled in the same building. With its grand 16ft ceilings and stunning light-filled spaces, this 3-bedroom Parisian-inspired home is a haven of sophistication. From the inviting foyer with its subtle elegance to the intimate dining area to the refined kitchen, every corner is designed for both comfort and style. Perfect for entertaining or enjoying quiet moments, this NYC residence teems with ambiance and historic charm.

Ready to be inspired? Step inside the gorgeous Studio City home of production designer James Pearse Connelly — who has created iconic sets for The Kelly Clarkson Show, Watch What Happens Live, Top Chef, The Voice, and many more popular television series. From the completely renovated main gathering space with its giant stone coffee table the same size as the picture window right across to the dazzling kitchen with a massive marble island and cabinets featuring an alternating black and gray-green scheme to the sweet nursery that evokes a sense of retro fun with its disco ball mobile, plush animal toys, sprinkle art and stimulating patterns, this creative residence truly feels like one big hug. Discover how he blends cozy family-friendly functionality with renovated open spaces — placing an emphasis on imaginative vintage pieces, warm tones, and elegant midcentury touches — all while enjoying breathtaking views of the Hollywood Hills.

We then switch gears and fly over to Turkiye to explore Ephesus: a UNESCO heritage site that’s located in the Izmir province at the Western end of the country near the coast and has served as one of the most impressive excavated ancient cities in the world. Join 1st Look guest host and media personality Sibley Scoles and tour guide Koray Suren to learn more about the awe-inspiring art, architecture, and history — including the Temple of Artemis, Library of Celsus, and the majestic Ephesus theater.

After that, we link up with interior designer Melanie Roy for a look around a prewar duplex on Park Avenue where glamour and comfort converge. From the glistening entryway with its seated glass light fixture and white marble floors with crystal accent inlays that sets the tone for the whole apartment to the grand living room with its playful art, curved sofas upholstered in gray velvet, faceted steel coffee table and halo crystal light above, this Upper East Side home teems with shimmering textures, soft neutral tones, reflective materials and statement lighting.

We end the episode with a visit to the renowned Tribeca penthouse of lighting and furniture designer Lee Broom. A fitting celebration of his innovative style and elegant aesthetic (a modernist take on classic decor), this duplex residence, which occupies the fifth and sixth floors of a historic cast iron building in downtown NYC and serves as the designer’s residence and appointment-only showroom, features an abundance of natural light, flow, and unique creations inspired by the architecture of the 3,000 sq. ft. space as well as New York City itself.

A Tour of Dorinda Medley's Home in the Berkshires | Open House TV

Come along with Open House TV as we travel to the Berkshires to explore Dorinda Medley’s Gilded Age Tudor-style estate, which she thoughtfully designed with her friend and interior decorator Marshall Watson.

Built in 1902, this Great Barrington home — lovingly known as Bluestone Manor — captures her vision of maintaining the architectural integrity of the home while incorporating “Marilyn Monroe meets Frankenstein” elements throughout to create a house full of curiosity. This includes: custom millwork, a grand entryway with a majestic fireplace, vibrant colors, and sumptuous décor such as a bejeweled peacock in the living room and a library with coffered ceilings, candelabras, birds under glass, a hidden wet bar, and a bright floral Christmas tree. Join the ‘Real Housewives of New York’ star as she takes viewers on a tour of the magnificent grounds!

Full Episode: 5 Bright & Stylish Homes in New York City & Los Angeles | Open House TV

Full Episode: 5 Bright & Stylish Homes in New York City & Los Angeles | Open House TV

Ready to step into more gorgeous luxury residences in New York and California? Join Open House host Sara Gore for a tour of five spacious homes located on both the East and West Coast!

Kicking things off: Dramatic 360-degree views of Manhattan (including the Empire State Building and Statue of Liberty), two private wraparound terraces, exclusive elevator access, 12.5-foot high ceilings, a lavish great room with a two-sided gas fireplace, an elegant library with expansive glass walls, a spacious media room perfect for enjoying a game of pool or hosting a cozy movie night with friends and family, a custom kitchen with natural oak cabinetry and 15-foot island, and plenty of closet space. Is there anything this 6,300-square-foot penthouse, located at the top of 551 West 21st Street, doesn’t offer? Experience more of this impressive 4-bedroom residence via a tour by none other than Frances Katzen.

Next up: Levik Stephan shows viewers around 1443 Devlin Dr. in Los Angeles, California. Perched in the Hollywood Hills above the famed Sunset Strip, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom architectural abode (designed by Harry Gesner in the 1960s) contains 6,500 square feet of signature design flourishes of midcentury modern glamour, exposed natural wood beams, private screening room with a temperature-controlled section for wine, voluminous bedroom suites, a pocketed bar at the corner of the property that leads into a sunken living (that contains a stainless steel fireplace that’s encapsulated by sleek stone and ledge for lounging) that’s as relaxing as it is lush, an outdoor mosaic pool area with cinematic views of Beverly Hills and the Pacific Ocean.

After that, we step inside the refined New York City home of Alice Chun — an architect, philanthropist, and social entrepreneur who happens to be the inventor of the SolarPuff™ and MegaPuff (collapsible and affordable solar lights designed with the principles of origami to help underserved communities). Located in Peter Cooper Village, this Gramercy apartment is full of good books, family keepsakes, and travel mementos — all while embracing an aesthetic that is modern, sleek, and natural. Much like Alice’s approach to award-winning & sustainable designs, this welcoming abode — which also acts as a living laboratory for her prototypes — encompasses beauty, wonder, and awe.

We then travel to Crestwood Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles to join Adam Blackman — co-founder of the Blackman Cruz showroom and co-author of the book ‘Beauty & Mischief: The Design Alchemy of Blackman Cruz’ — for a tour of his lovely internationally-styled home. Located in the Crestwood Hills section of the city, this renovated midcentury abode — originally designed in 1949 by architects A. Quincy Jones and Whitney R. Smith — consists of unusual and beautiful furniture pieces throughout that are great conversation starters, including: a “miracle” chandelier; vintage “Papa Bear” black leather chair that’s comfortable for curling up with a good book; bronze Gazelle-line dining table set by Dan Johnson, cinder block fireplace with a blue painting hanging over it; table compromised of 400 music records bolted together and cast; and a super rare 1967 Ford automobile bound to make any vintage car collector’s heart race extra fast.

We end the episode on a high note (quite literally) with Dana Power at a duplex penthouse located at 385 West 12th Street in New York City. Nestled on a quiet cobblestone enclave in the West Village, this 3,844-square-foot duplex penthouse boasts four bedrooms, four bathrooms, three exclusive terraces with breathtaking city vistas; loft-like proportions; a swinging wall that closes off to separate the den from the kitchen; private elevator access that leads into a double-height solarium that sets the stage for the most enchanting ambiance framing the river views right outside; rooftop oasis with a 50-foot infinity-edge lap pool, jacuzzi, grilling stations and landscaped deck; and plenty of natural light throughout (courtesy of its numerous floor-to-ceiling windows).
