Taylor Swift Plans To Expand Rhode Island Mansion To Make It Her Permanent Residence With Travis Kelce. Here's A Look At Her Portfolio

Having conquered the world with her record-breaking Eras Tour, Taylor Swift plans to conquer domesticity next.

According to plans filed with her local municipality and obtained by U.S. Weekly, the pop icon is giving her Rhode Island mansion a $1.7 million revamp, adding an additional bedroom, upgrading an existing room into an "enlarged bedroom suite," and modernizing the kitchen. 

A Home Away From The Stage

Hoping to enjoy some much-needed R&R with NFL player boyfriend Travis Kelce, Swift's domestic upgrades to the home she bought a decade ago for $17.75 million suggest an extended down period away from the stage. The sprawling 11,000-square-foot beachfront residence is located in the exclusive Watch Hill enclave in Westerly and features seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms. Swift's upgrades will add an extra 400 square feet.

The renovation plans, drawn up on Nov. 25 and Dec. 4, 2024, expire on Dec. 4, 2025. A team of Rhode Island-based contractors led by David W. Shafovaloff will complete the work.

A String of Savvy Real Estate Buys

Swift isn't all East Coast. She owns a 10,000-square-foot, seven-bedroom Beverly Hills home, purchased in 2015 for $25 million, formerly owned by legendary movie producer Samuel Goldwyn.

A Financially Astute Family

It helps that the singer-songwriter comes from an astute, financially minded family. According to Harper's Bazaar, her father, Scott Swift, worked as a financial advisor, forming the wealth management firm the Swift Group under Merrill Lynch. He moved his business to Hendersonville, Tennessee, outside of Nashville, to help his daughter's career.
