We’re taking a peek inside Sandra Bullock’s beautifully restored Manhattan home. A 19th-century property that, in her words, required “major renovations and a lot of love.” Bullock was immediately drawn to its lush garden, original fireplaces and wonderfully light-filled living spaces. Having purchased the home 20 years ago, she describes its gradual restoration as much more than a renovation — it became part of her own journey, a process she described as “trying to find my way in adulthood.”
A home with history, character and a very personal story, and plenty of inspiration for lovers of timeless interiors. 🖤
At Art Deco Co, we respect eclecticism and maximalist design that delivers this character, comfort and charisma. To complement Sandra Bullock's antique collection, the architects added custom pieces, such as comfortable sofas placed near the living room fireplace. Artisans played a key role in the renovation. Missing pieces of ceiling medallions had to be hand-carved, and 19th-century fireplaces were carefully recreated. FUN FACT: A fireplace that had been removed by a previous owner was even discovered at a neighbor's house.
