Inside Barbara and Kevin McLaughlin's Upper East Side Townhome

- Take a step inside the wonderful world of Barbara and Kevin McLaughlin. As the Co-Founder and Creative Director of J.Mclaughlin, an American heritage brand, Kevin and his wife Barbara, President of the Fund for Park Avenue, have designed their Upper East Side townhouse, with the help of architect Doug Larson, to be as whimsical and inspiring as the dresses so famous to J.McLaughlin.
Perched in New York City’s Upper East Side, the townhouse is five stories of fabulous and inspiring design. From the bright chartreuse front door to the terrace, no detail goes unnoticed. When entering the home, visitors are greeted with an exquisite staircase covered in a wildly fantastic leopard-print runner. Latticework and mirrors envelope the entire kitchen creating a grand and expansive feeling while inviting the outdoors inside. On the fifth floor of the home, the McLaughlins worked with their architect to open up the space and inevitably created the nicest guest suite in Manhattan. The suite is essentially a penthouse sitting atop a townhouse, just as architect Doug Larson planned. Steel doors in the guest suit lead out to a terrace with a breath taking view of Midtown Manhattan.
When asked what their must-haves were in the home, Barbara said that the outdoor space and built-in bookcases in their library/study were the two elements that made this house a home for them. Barbara, an avid reader, has filled these shelves from top to bottom with exquisite literature. Keeping the home warm and inviting is a top priority. For every paint surface, they have matched it with a warm wood surface or plant.

"I'm Kevin and I'm grateful"...... I love that self intro so much!
Same. I thought, “wow this guy is cool in my book” lol
The beauty of marriage and overall happiness. Kevin is grateful and Barbara finishes his sentences. What a blessed family they are. 🥰
I think I liked them as much as I liked their townhouse.
Agreed! Such a cute couple, imagine how cool it would be to be their guest for a weekend
"Because it's not perfect, it's more inviting." I like that. I also like George Winston and a bar.
Oh yes, so agree with your comment.
Let's face it. Perfection is a drag. It's cold.
WHAT A LOVELY COUPLE AND WHAT A WONDERFUL HOME !!!
They are so inspiring and joyous! A truly beautiful home!
Beautiful home. Soo cozy.
“I’m Kevin, and I’m grateful” great intro.

Love the fact home have color so many homes lack that these days.
Yes!! I have the walls in my living room and kitchen in light blue and everyone who sees it is amazed.
What a completely charming couple. What a lovely home. The very best Americans….civilised, erudite and urbane……..🇬🇧
Such a beautiful home - everything about it I just love.
Charming couple and so very gracious. Thanks for sharing with us.
Not sure what I love more! The house or Barbara and Kevin. What a lovely couple. (I struggled a bit hearing them over the music.)
I agree about the tour and how awesome Barbara and Kevin are. I also agree that the music was a little too loud. A really enjoyable video though. Thank you for sharing it!
I had seen their Christmas home tour 2022 with Barbara on a different channel and fell in love with this amazing home. Watching this video, Kevin is a hoot! I loved the "I put on a little George Winston to calm me down and then I go over to the bar which really calms me down". The guy has a great sense of humor!
Lovely couple with a gorgeous home. I’m with Kevin - I’m not a reader like my husband but I do like pictures in a book. 😀
These people are what I call elegant, gracious, great taste.....
fun to wander around with the gracious hosts
A nice afternoon looking at beautiful interiors!
He got it right: “because it is not perfect it is more inviting.” I like your house and George Winston too!🥂
I enjoyed this lovely couple even more than touring their lovely home.
Smart couple , yeah you've got a harmony welcome &cozy home.
What a beautiful couple, and stunning home!
They Have the best of both worlds, relaxed country living in the heart of NYC...
And just like that, they made me like the ultra-rich a little bit more :)
“Perfection is intimidating”, great statement! The details of this home are so lovely and inviting.
I love their home. It’s not only beautiful, but it reflects their personalities.
Wow!!! Wonderful tour, I really can’t tell you my favorite part, because frankly it was all spectacular. 😁❤️
We are so happy to hear that! While we don't like to play favorites... The guest suite is ultra-fab!
Exactly...
Your home is just lovely. What I enjoyed even more was the delightful ebb and flow of a couple finishing each others thoughts with grace and humor. Thank you for welcoming us.
these two & their lovely domicile are prime examples of what i love about nYc - bravi , b & k !
New York beauty! Something we love about this home is that it is all at once so New York and so transportive!
I love everything about their home...it’s warm and welcoming in every nook and cranny. The Art on the walls is so enjoyable to see. The color schemes flow from room to room and I just want to let out a big happy sigh “Ahhhhh” after seeing each room.
Indeed, that guest-room was something else, I can quite imagine myself being comfortable there, and with George Winston on the speakers, I could probably stretch my stay to a whole week 😉
One of the most beautiful townhouses ever. Well done!
This lovely couple and how their energy comes together is superbly reflected in their sophisticated and complex home aesthetic. Everything about this is undeniably Upper East Side -- all business, understated opulence, and intellectual gravitas. The warmth and depth of the McLaughlin marriage are felt in their way with each other and in the harmonious complexity of their decor. Quite lovely.
Thank you for sharing this.
Finally a New York townhouse decorated by people with elegant restraint in taste. Beautiful pastel colors provide a calming affect and escape from the bustle of the city.
I think best tour I’ve seen yet. Great couple, incredible home.
So lovely to look at all these gorgeous homes. I would love to have my own library. Gorgeous video. Lifts the spirits!🙂
What a spectacular, warm, cozy home! Lovely couple, who enjoy spending time creating an inviting home together.🌸
They complement each other very well. Kevin is a character and Barbara is a calm presence. The home is a dream.
Wow! What a very welcoming and cozy home! Very relaxed -- nothing pretentious or too precious. Just curl up and get comfortable ...indoors or out!
They have such great taste. What a lovely home.
Lovely. We love it when our guests
say "You have such a comfortable home". I'm sure you hear the same over and over again!
Such a wonderful couple and home! So many pleasing aspects to their home…and the views!! Awesome.
Beautiful home but the personalities of the homeowners was just lovely. Kevin made me smile and laugh.
