Tasteful Friends - What Do We Think of Norah Jones's Brooklyn Townhouse?

LOVELY!

There is a ton to like. I'd redo one of the bathrooms, the wrought iron bannister and spindles and, ideally, the kitchen but it's a great place.

Lots I love. I feel like the pool and hottub area would essentially be a Sandals resort for rats, though. I’ve never been interested in non-balcony outdoor space in New York.

Are mismatched windows a new design trend? Not a fan of fur skin rugs.

If I were female, my vagina would be pulsating. Otherwise, barf.

The bamboo planted behind the fence beside the pool area will cause lots of problems.

Her music is so boring. But I like the townhouse.

Music artists have so much more money than people think. Norah hasn't been relevant in over a decade, yet she can afford to own an $8 million townhouse in NYC?

No, she can afford to sell an $8m townhouse that she likely bought 15 years ago for half that price and probably still owes $2m on.

An excellent example of Boho Bland. Beni Ourain rug, basket turned light fixture, spiny cactus, West Elm art, Moroccan pouf? Yep. I could do bingo cards for this look. There some nice things, but it's not terribly original.

I am sure your home has been featured in AD, right r10 ?

I really like it. Not a fan of the bathroom or the patio space but otherwise I like it.

r8 in the music business once you have a big hit, you can live pretty comfortably if you are smart. If you can write and arrange, you can make a nice living, once your get your name out there with a hit song/album.

r13, since music is basically free, I thought musicians had to constantly tour to make any money?

It's as if a Houlihan's from 1979 had a baby with a Hollywood Hills home with disastrous results. The mystifying tile work for staters.

When was the last time she had a hit?

She'll be selling that place soon

$8 million for Brooklyn? I never imagined I’d live to see that.

This is literally my dream house san pool & hot tub

Norah's heyday was back when CDs were still the rage. She made her millions before Youtube and Spotify. Lucky bitch.

Oh, the place is great.

No, R11. AD is all about celebrities these days. My work has been published, though. One of my showhouse rooms has been pinned over 1500 times. I think my critique is valid.

I'm assuming the place is staged by the realtors. Otherwise she has about as much personality as her voice.

Boho-chic beautiful.

r21, if you want to see a place completely devoid of personality, check out Katie Holmes' house.

I love how there are so many music industry experts here, does anyone who commented actually work in music?

I don't think you guys know the difference between staged and unstaged. Norah's house is bland but unstaged. You don't keep 30 stupid chandeliers over a stairway in a staged house. Katie's house was definitely staged. White walls, simple furniture, blank canvas.

Exactly, r3. The pool would be nasty.

Staging aside, Katie’s place looks like it would belong to the one of the least interesting cast members of the Real Housewives of OC.
