Inside Chelsea Clinton's Gorgeous Home

Former first daughter Chelsea Clinton's $10 million New York City apartment has been described as a "luxury fortress," as reported by the New York Daily News. Clinton and her husband, Marc Mezvinsky, moved into their digs in 2013, a few years after they married. The couple has since welcomed two children — Charlotte and Aidan — and, as of this writing, Clinton and Mezvinsky are expecting a third.

Although New York City apartments are certainly not known for being very spacious, the couple and their children have plenty of room — about 5,000 square feet — to roam and spread out. In fact, Clinton's apartment, while not the White House, is impressive, as it's the longest apartment in the entire city and extends over a full Manhattan block, as noted by the Daily Mail. And yes, the views of 26th Street and 27th Street are perhaps even more incredible than we can comprehend. Are you curious to see inside the modern mansion Clinton calls home? Let's go.

For many years, Chelsea Clinton has been concerned about mankind's impact on the world. In an interview with Parade, Clinton said that "trying to save endangered animals and help save our planet" was the "first global issue [she] felt a connection to." She continued, saying, "I find it painful that 30 years later we have to still be working to combat climate change to save the planet and try to save the species that are imperiled today."

Out of concern for the environment, Clinton has taken many small steps to reduce her own carbon footprint, like taking shorter showers. She's also teaching her children to care for their environment. "With our supervision, our 4-and-1/2-year-old daughter can help us change lightbulbs and, when we do, we talk to her about how important it is for our home to be as environmentally conscious as possible," she told Parade. "The kids may not understand the words but hopefully that sense of family responsibility and family citizenship will affect their actions and the ways in which they act in the world over time."

Knowing what we do about Clinton, we'd assume her NYC home must reflect her strong environmental beliefs.

Of course, a good security system cannot be the only reason Clinton loves her home. With her apartment stretching over both 26th Street and 27th Street, that means she doesn't just have a great street view. According to the home's listing, it features "stunning direct Madison Square Park views." And that's a view that will never get old. With nearly wall-to-wall windows in the master bedroom and living room of her apartment at The Whitman, Clinton has a swoon-worthy panoramic view of the city sights.

But is she planning to give up the gorgeous views to run for president of the United States? Clinton isn't ruling out running for office — and thus returning to the White House —  but she's happy with her local politicians. "For me, I live in a neighborhood in the city and in a state where I feel my family, and what I hope for the world, is well represented," she told USA Today. While she'd like change "at the national level," she added, "But I like my City Councilwoman Carlina Rivera, I like my senators and I love my public advocate Letitia James who I hope is the next attorney general."

Chelsea Clinton's ultra modern kitchen is located just off of a living room that overlooks Madison Square Park. With not one but two dual built-in ovens, dinner parties are surely no problem for the Clinton family. Separate ovens are also a pretty great thing for preparing food for people with food allergies. Clinton herself is thought to eat a gluten-free diet after having a gluten-free wedding cake. But as great as the appliances are, the custom textured white Arclinea cabinetry may be even cooler. They make this fairly modest-sized kitchen feel pretty grand. The kitchen's waterfall countertops add an exceptionally sleek feel.

When Clinton's children are old enough to take out the kitchen trash, they're going to be happy that they don't have to venture outside in the cold New York City winters or humid summers to do so. Next to the home's private foyer is the trash chute. And just off the kitchen is also a "refrigerated package room" for receiving temperature-dependent deliveries like groceries. Um, yes, please!

Of the six and a half bathrooms throughout the home, one most certainly takes the (gluten-free) cake. As the floor plan of Clinton's place highlights, the Whitman unit features a "full Italian marble slab master bathroom." And it's as amazing as it sounds. Frameless glass doors separate the spacious shower from the rest of the bathroom. The soaking tub also has a room of its own — complete with a marble step leading to the bath. 

Although you might not think much of the bathroom fixtures, they're anything but builder grade. Instead, each and every bathroom has quality Dornbracht or Hansgrohe fixtures. Every ensuite bathroom also has a tub — which surely comes in handy for the kids. In an interview with Scary Mommy, Chelsea Clinton said daughter Charlotte, much like other children, plays with bath toys. However, her toy of choice is not a rubber ducky but an action figure of her "Granma" Hillary Clinton in a blue pantsuit.
