Taylor Swift Will Spend $1.7 Million Expanding $18 Million Rhode Island Mansion Where She Vacationed With Travis Kelce

Taylor Swift is giving her stunning Rhode Island mansion a $1.7 million upgrade—just weeks after ending her historic “Eras Tour” and taking some much-needed time off to support her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, from the sidelines of his football games.

More than 10 years after snapping up the property for a jaw-dropping $17.75 million, the 34-year-old “All Too Well” hitmaker is going to expand it with an additional bedroom, while transforming one of the existing rooms into an “enlarged bedroom suite.” Records obtained by Us Weekly also indicate that she is going to remodel the kitchen.

In total, the project will add 400 square feet to the property.

The residence—which is located in the exclusive enclave of Watch Hill in Westerly and is known locally as “Holiday House”—currently sprawls across 11,000 square feet and features seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms.

It is unclear when the construction will begin. However, the renovation plans were drawn up on Nov. 25 and Dec. 4, 2024, before Swift’s final “Eras Tour” show on Dec. 8, with an expiration date of Dec. 4, 2025.

The renovation will be completed by a team of Rhode Island–based contractors, led by David W. Shafovaloff, who is located in Hope Valley and describes himself on LinkedIn as a “self employed construction project manager” who specializes in “high end residential and commercial construction.”

In addition to its many bedrooms and bathrooms, Swift’s opulent home currently features a 36-foot-long parlor and an octagonal dining room.

The extravagant seaside estate was built in 1930 and once belonged to composer and socialite Rebekah Harkness, who was married to William Hale “Bill” Harkness.

Swift’s abode has been described as the ultimate getaway, offering “700 feet of private beachfront” and eight fireplaces, per its original listing.

Then, of course, there is the celebrity cachet that Swift’s ownership of the home has added. Over the years, the property has played host to many of Swift’s star-studded events, including her iconic Fourth of July parties, which have welcomed a long list of A-listers such as Selena Gomez and Blake Lively.

More recently, Swift and Kelce were seen lounging around her Rhode Island home with Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, in August 2024, as well as the Kansas City Chiefs star’s teammate Patrick Mahomes and his brother, Jason Kelce.

At the time, an insider detailed Swift’s love of the property, revealing that the star wants to spend “more time” and be more “grounded” at the beachside estate in the future.

“Taylor has been on tour and working nonstop, and she loves the Rhode Island house and wanted to spend some time there while the weather is still good and she can enjoy it,” the source explained.

“It has felt wonderful to be grounded back home again. It’s been grounding to see friends and family and spend quality time with everyone, chat and get downloaded on everyone’s worlds because she has been so busy and disconnected.”

Swift’s record-breaking tour began in March 2023 and wrapped up on Dec. 8. The tour raked in over $2 billion in ticket sales and even helped to thrust the pop icon to billionaire status.

At her final concert, Swift thanked fans for “being part of the most thrilling chapter” of her life, one that has seen her spend more than a year traveling the globe and featuring dozens of high-profile guest performers in her 149 shows—including her boyfriend.

Although Swift had a slew of choices to sit back and relax at after “The Eras Tour” ended, the icon chose to seek refuge at her beachside estate.

In addition to her Rhode Island party home, Swift also owns a luxury condo on Nashville’s Music Row and a Greek Revival-style mansion in the gated Northumberland Estate neighborhood of Nashville, TN.

In 2014, Swift turned her sights to New York City as she snapped up two penthouses in the chic Tribeca neighborhood for about $20 million and combined them into a nine-bedroom, nine-bath abode with beamed ceilings, a curved staircase, and enormous windows.

She purchased a third unit in the building a few years later for $9.75 million, increasing her Tribeca takeover by over 3,500 square feet.

Then, in 2017, the pop star splurged on an adjacent townhouse, paying $18 million for the three-story mansion measuring 5,000 square feet, which joins her growing urban empire.

Swift also holds the keys to a luxurious Beverly Hills, CA, home, which she purchased in 2015 for $25 million. The lavish spread was once owned by movie producer Samuel Goldwyn, co-founder of Goldwyn Pictures.

The home, which sits on 2 acres and offers over 10,000 square feet of living space, has been described in the listing as the “epitome of cordial grace and distinguished heritage.”

Highlights of the eye-catching home include seven bedrooms, a guest suite, a screening room, and a gym. The parklike grounds offer up a championship tennis court, rose garden, pool, and pool house.
