Celebrity HomesMartha Stewart’s Maine Mansion Takes #1 For Prettiest Celebrity Home by : Samantha Lebbos 9 years ago August 23, 2015 share PopSugar is just as obsessed with Martha Stewart’s home as we are! Check out what they had to say about her mansion in Maine below:Martha Stewart has known and loved many mansions in her day. And now, she’s showing off one of her most prized current possessions, a beautiful Maine lodge called Skylands, in the July edition of Architectural Digest, which is available on newsstands now. Martha is the very proud owner of the large home in Seal Harbor, ME, which was built by automobile mogul Edsel Ford in 1925. By opening the house to the magazine, Martha once again proved how she does pretty much everything better when it comes to luxurious living. Even her car matches the home. Martha’s fellow millionaires, take note: this is how you live lavishly. Make Sure Your Car and License Plate Match Your House Image Source: Architectural Digest / Pieter Estersohn In honor of Skylands’s first occupant, Martha keeps a 1958 Ford Edsel in front of the home. The automobile was a gift from her daughter, Alexis, and one of only 963 1958 Edsels ever made. Naturally, there’s a corresponding vanity plate. The only problem is that since Maine has a maximum of seven characters on a license plate, Martha’s simply reads, “Skyland.” Try to Get Free China and Silver With Purchase Image Source: Architectural Digest / Pieter Estersohn Skylands remained in the Ford family until 1980, though it would be another 17 years until Martha made the house her own. Despite the gap in ownership, many of the Fords’ belongings, including china and silver, came with purchase. “I didn’t have to buy a plate,” Martha told Architectural Digest, “although I’ve certainly added my fair share.” Only Throw Parties For a Hundred or More People Image Source: Architectural Digest / Pieter Estersohn Despite Skylands’s isolated location on the Maine coast, Martha confided to Architectural Digest that guests still flock to party there. Using the Ford’s original Frigidaire refrigerators — there’s a wall of them — Martha can oversee parties for over a hundred people. It doesn’t hurt that she also has a flower-arranging room at Skylands. Go Big, or Go Home Image Source: Architectural Digest / Pieter Estersohn Martha told Architectural Digest that she spends part of her Summers and scattered weekends throughout the year at Skylands. The mansion clocks in at a whopping 35,000 square feet, which means there’s a lot to clean between visits.
