Where Does Martha Stewart Live?
Celebrity homes can be out-of-touch and somewhat impractical, but, at least when it comes to impractical, that’s never been the case for Martha Stewart. If you’ve ever wondered, “where does Martha Stewart live?” you might not be too surprised to know that she has multiple properties on the East Coast — each one more gorgeous and inviting than the next.
Whether you’re thinking of her well-known first home (and kitchen) in Connecticut or her summer getaway in Maine, you can’t deny that she has good taste when choosing a home and decorating it. The queen of entertaining has multiple properties across America, but she tends to choose places in the Northeast. Here are some of the more notable homes in her real estate portfolio.
Katonah, New York
In Katonah, Stewart’s 152-acre estate is home to a plethora of animals (horses, chickens, peacocks, and donkeys) and a thriving vegetable garden. Stewart purchased the residence, usually dubbed the Catinoe Corners or Bedford Farm, in 2000. In 2023, Stewart repaired the roof on her little basket house and detailed the project in a blog post. (Yes, she has a space on her property that is literally a home for her basket collection.)
New York City
Meanwhile, her other homes in New York are completely different. In Manhattan, the chic West Village neighborhood is known for the popular Washington Square Park, celebrity sightings, and the Stonewall Riots, but it was also the location of Stewart’s former glamorous condo. She used to reside on Perry Street, but she put it on the market in 2010.
In 2024, according to House Beautiful, Martha and her daughter co-purchased a six-bedroom, 4,600 square-foot apartment on the Upper West Side, which is famous for being the main filming location of Only Murders in the Building.
East Hampton, New York
Stewart spent nearly 30 years remodeling her former East Hampton cottage and tending to the land’s rose gardens before selling the home in 2021. Located on Lily Pond Lane, the posh residence was one of Stewart’s most-admired homes.
Westport, Connecticut
Although you might recognize the phrase “Turkey Hill” for their sweet tea and ice cream, it’s also the name of Stewart’s infamous first home. If you’re a longtime fan of hers, you’ll probably remember the farmhouse that she purchased with her now ex-husband in Westport, Connecticut, and sold in 2007. In her recent Netflix documentary Martha, she said that if “she hadn’t had Turkey Hill, I would not be me right now,” and revealed that at one of her parties at her home, she was approached by a publisher to write her first book, Entertaining.
In a 2011 blog post, she recalled the importance of her former home and its “distinctive characteristics” prior to selling it. “Turkey Hill was a dream place for my family and me for many years,” she wrote. “It taught us, it nurtured us, it fed us, and it occupied us in so many wonderful and instructive ways. I would not be who I am today without the vast knowledge I gained there, on that small bit of paradise.”
Seal Harbor, Maine
If you’ve been to Maine in the summertime, you can understand why Stewart’s home in Seal Harbor is the perfect getaway. Located near Acadia National Park, her woodland estate has a dozen bedrooms and a pink-granite driveway and was once owned by Henry Ford’s son.
In a blog post, Stewart detailed the gorgeous walks that she frequently takes across the pine-needled property and nearby businesses and beaches in the Skylands area. In an interview from 2017, Stewart mentioned that the Maine home is her “favorite place,” and if you were to see it in person, you’d probably say the same.
Where does Martha Stewart live now?
Martha’s main home is her Katonah, New York, property, which she also refers to as the “Bedford Farmhouse.” Martha makes a solid case for naming your home — even if you only have the one.
