- On today’s episode of Homeworthy, we’re taking you to the Gramercy Park neighborhood of New York City for a look inside designer Bennett Leifer's charming apartment. He renovated this pre-war apartment into a stunning jewel box complete with a painting bar instead of one that holds adult beverages! The apartment also has access to the private Gramercy Park--only accessible by key--which is an added bonus for anyone who lives on the perimeter of the park. Enjoy!

Well, he's just so adorable... such a calming spirit. The place is gorgeous and love how much he loves it
This guy is fantastic; perfectly self-possessed, and his style is refined and purposeful.
Lovely man, lovely home. I especially appreciate his clarity and calm.
What a generous man to share his beautiful, elegant, sublime space.
I love love this apartment!! Cozy, rich but simple. The owner is so humble and talented man. Thank you Alison and please show us more of the apartment tours. Those who live in one appreciate these tours because we can get tons of good ideas.
Enjoy the way you explain in detail the beauty of your apartment, like no other designer. I felt like I was actually there. Appreciate the calmness of your spirit
Such effortless elegance! I could listen to him all day. Would love to see his client work, I’m sure it’s utterly amazing. ❤
Simple, extremely thought out, with maximum attention to slightest detail ... "effortlessly" timeless & elegant
What a stunning apartment! And, as others have said, the designer is as thoughtful and as charming as can be! Thank you for sharing.
What a lovely man who happens to have great taste. He is very talented and appears to be very thoughtful too. I love everything about his apartment.
I loved listening to him. He has a nice unpretentious way about him. The apartment, although small is stylish and has everything he needs, and to have that view and access to Grammy Park is special.
I love your use of color, and yes, it does all read as calm, peaceful, and safe. The colors make me smile. You have a calming voice and exude peace and strength. I wish you continued success and peace.
A true decorator! The apartment, well with windows like that overlooking Grammy Park with his own key, wow!
Just love this. Paired back yet still rich and gorgeous.
Absolutely beautiful
He did a excellent job ,
He talks so calmly
I loved everything
Enjoy it all
Homeworthy thank you yet again for showcasing such delightful people and homes.
Bennett has an exquisite and refined sense of style that elevates you in the paired back simplicity
and the use of exceptional materials, colour and space.
His choice of colours is surprisingly beautiful. Especially his Hermes chair. Love it.
His apartment is as beautiful as his soul, very well thought out and beautifully executed design ❤️ ❤
The interior design not only reflects his personality, but also the lushness of the park and trees. It's really well thought out, with the designed layout and specific design elements and artwork, even down to the china and glassware. Mostly, I like that it's not over-done. There's a simplistic elegance, refinement and moodiness that is so appealing. Love this home!
Am obsessed with Homeworthy - the homeowners’ personalities are sometimes just as interesting as the decor
Such a pleasure to listen to how he thinks! "A nest that no one can hinder". Love that. It's something everyone needs.
Love this apartment! I love the designing of it and it feels clean, organized, spacious and grand! So well thought out. He was delightful and I would love to just sit and chat with him over a glass of wine.
His apartment is who he is . Calm , edgy, soulful and a thinker !
I agree🤩
He’s actually really rude irl
I’m lying for fun
Yes!
I've watched this feature multiple times. There was so much to admire. He is relaxed just like his space. Elegant and cute! Such an example of having everything you want in a small space. Well done!
Same here. This is about my 3rd time. I am going through it pausing on multiple frames just to admire and absorb some of his design style and color combinations.
This is a beautiful and elegant but livable space. I love the coziness of the bedroom. The Italian head vases are magnificent!
YES! I have never seen any like that. No doubt another person would have them in a very busy room turning them into a negative. Here their uniqueness is showcased. Love them!
One of the most beautiful interiors I’ve seen on Home Worthy - Cozy ambiance, sophisticated and thoughtful layout. It’s an inspiration for me.
What a beautiful tour. He is so talented, and his use of color, pattern and accessories, make this space so special
Uncluttered, Elegant, beautiful masculine simplicity. It's perfect.
Lovely. Very well thought out, I like how one room flows into another, nice calming feel and beautiful colours. The powder room floor tile and the living room rug..stunning!
These high end New York Apts are so fabulous, and have so much character. I would love to live in that location next to the park. You can actually have your own key to the entrance. 😮
What a beautiful human! Enjoyed the tour of this jewel box abode.
Yes... a nest! I always say I love to feather my nest. Also I have a dark navy camel back old sofa and and chair. I love the rich saturated colors, so your home feels so calming and peaceful to me. Looking out your bedroom window is like living in a treehouse. And.... I would expect nothing less from your closet !!! Immaculate , organized perfection.
Love the way you articulate yourself so intentionally and beautifully. The rug looks so plush and I can imagine so wonderful underfoot. Really gorgeous elegant space. Pure sophistication.
Love your space, the rug is incredible - you really thought out the details of your space and it shows! Great job, lovely home!👍👏😊
That bedroom is like an elegant hotel room. Loved it.
He is a magpie in the best sense in that he has feathered his nest with all his favorite things, but in a way that is cohesive and makes sense. We should all be so fortunate!
Lovely apartment. The owner seems thoughtful, intuitive, skilled and creative. Much like his living space.
love it, the way Bennet describes his apartment and his style is so nice, one of the best videos from this site.
Bennet is so talented and cute!
That china pattern is GORGEOUS!! I MUST know the name of it! Update-----Found it! Haviland & Parlon, Syracuse pattern...expensive! Definitely a must buy!
I love your “nest” and may I say you hit it outta the park with your jewel box. I love the color combination and the amazing use of space. It’s hard to choose a favorite with so much beauty but I’d say that area rug is insane. I’ve never seen anything so perfect. I’ve watched 3 times and still find a new delight. Thanks for sharing!
Allison and everyone at Homeworthy, you guys picked a great homeowner to interview and I love how calm and welcoming he was during the video. He reiterated the importance of how you feel in your own space, rather than how trendy and expensive the brands are in a home. Bravo! ❤❤❤
I love this guy without knowing him. He genuinely sent me positive vibes through his look, his calm and classic style of clothing.
This is one fabulous apartment! And that outrageous, beautifully lush rug in the living room. He's got one hell of an eye.
This man is absolutely handsome and beautiful. 😊
I love pre-war/between the wars architecture. (I have a c 1920s midwest Arts and Crafts Bungalow myself.) I really like the way he has honored the bones of his home and still updated and reconfigured to current needs. I would have done a massive library wall where he has the screen, but I have a bit of a book problem LOL. Totally stealing the idea of mouthwash in crystal!
Yes, now I know what to do with my parents' crystal decanter that no longer has its matching glasses.
The only possible book problem is not having enough. 😊
Stunning apartment, really stunning. Loved the Hermes covering on the chair and the rugs. Thank you for the video!
Enchanting gentleman and exquisite, elegant apartment! Lovely everything!! Thank you, Homeworthy!
What a beautiful apartment and interesting young man ! Thanks again Homeworthy !
Nice! One of the few videos showing a liveable small apartment in NYC! His design and decor is stunning! Love it!
This apartment is so gorgeous, rich and perfect in every way. Being on Gramercy Park is the dream. Seeing all that greenery and serenity outside your bedroom in NYC? Priceless. I would never, ever move.
Incredible space. So sophisticated and elegant yet utterly cozy and unpretentious. I have to see his other projects. Definitely my favorite apartment so far❤😍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Once again, the homeowner is as wonderful to listen to as his apartment is beautiful. I love his soft spoken narrative of the design of his living space. Another amazing tour.
I really could listen to him all day. Very beautiful, relaxing and thoughtful decor. AND living in such a gorgeous park is wonderful.
This is THE most handsome, artistic, 5:27 and charming man I've ever seen. And he has the most exquisite taste!!! That apartment is my idea of heaven 😍
I love this one. The apartment is beautiful and he is so calm and welcoming. I enjoyed watching this. Bravo!
Love his style! Another great home tour! Your channel continues to deliver the best home tours on TH-cam! Thank you!
Interiors are as soulful, flat, hollow, extraordinary as their creators. Bennett seems to honor all that potential magic and metaphor with great thoughtfulness, mental chisel, and tender application. Bravo, Bennett, you're place is really lovely, as I'm sure all your projects. Thank you for the share.
Love this style, his taste, his choice of materials and colors. Perfection. 👍
This man is a master of color and assembling a cohesive palette of complementary colours, patterns, and fabrics. The before was harsh from a lighting perspective but he added a massive mix of color yet the space is properly light balanced. His home is clearly expensive as he has not skimped on anything yet it does not shout "I'm Expensive". I will be creating my next home in the Netherlands and I could truly benefit from his talents but expect his sort of skills are $$$$$. Thank you Homeworthy.
The muted color combinations are really great. Overall elegant, sensual, calming. Walk a block away from the park and you're surrounded by the hustle, bustle, noise and madness of NYC.
It was nice to see how Bennett used pieces (many) from his previous apartment in his new space. Truly talented.
Charisma at it's finest. I'm here for it! His home is elegant yet inviting, and those colors are magical!
This is lovely. I enjoyed this home so much. Great job Bennett!
Just wonderful. A beautiful masculine jewel box.
Love seeing small spaces like this. He did a great job with storage. I loved the symmetrical bed niche made from something they couldn't change.
Love the rug . So alive elegant and unique.
Bennet is a great looking man with AMAZING Talent! I like what he did with his home in NYC’s Gramercy Park. I myself am a bit VERY Traditional with great antique & oil paintings. But he’s much younger and I like the way he mixes everything together... Thank you for sharing your home on HomeWorthy Bennet!! Doug from Philadelphia...
What an exquisite space. Every inch is perfection. I couldn't look away and miss a moment. His design philosophy can help us all see new possibilities in the way we use our living spaces. Thanks for this presentation. I'll watch it over and over to inspire my own sensibilities.
This is my favorite Homeworthy tour of all time. Absolutely beautiful space - sophisticated, yet warm, personal, and cohesive. Saving up my money so he can help me redesign my space some day!
❤❤❤❤ I love his hidden away powder room - especially the clear push-to-open panel on the door! The colors are so rich throughout his apartment. His credenza used as a work desk makes me rethink how to change out my desk in the livingroom to a piece that is always functional but pleasantly cohesive with the other furniture - plus can used as a buffet table for gatherings!
I loved his calm energy and classy design style !
Love his philosophy of design. Beautifully curated apartment. The color choices are sublime.
One of my favorites episodes so far!! & he is such a gem!❤
I love everything, especially the use of color. I think the rug is fascinating, but overpowering for the space.
A beautiful home. Thanks for showing it. Peaceful, still, and warm.
What a beautiful, sensitive, and artistic man. Such a beautiful home!👏🏼
Oh my, I love this one. The colors are perfectly balanced and beautiful. I cannot take my eyes off that rug, it's fabulous! It looks like moss on the forest floor. I need one of those in my life! The entire space is very serene. I'd probably be content to stay home more if I lived here. OK seriously now....I want that rug!
Beautiful apartment and such good use of space. It highlighted things he loved perfectly. His demeanor was so calm that he was a joy to watch.
What a lovely person! I like his thinking, and his approach to design and living. Yes, Gramercy Park is like the many private neighborhood parks in London.
Kudos to Bennet for NOT having a Tom Ford book in display. There's a cliché that needs to disappear.
Beautiful human and home; I appreciate his thoughtful approach to life. Inspiring.
“I did paint this but over someone’s work”, that’s interesting to me! He has several cool ideas in his home design!
Classic, timeless elegance. Your home is lovely. It is very much a jewel box, as described. The frame molding is an exceptional addition. The park reminds me of Gibson Square in Islington, London. We stayed there in 2015. I really enjoy your traditional design as well as your intentional selections. It is perfection.
Perfection! Gorgeous! A dreamy jewel box of an apartment.
Love love his apartment!!! Absolutely, gorgeous, stunning, cozy, and very welcoming
Thank you Homeworthy for taking us on a tour of the gorgeous apartment.
What a delightful, humble, and sensitive young man. I loved every detail of his home. You can tell how much thought was put into each room.
The color green is my favorite too. The kitchen may be small but so calming and bright, the wallpaper is beautiful.
I loved all the sweet favorites gifted from his family, the paintings and the portraits. I especially liked the color and style of the chairs and sofa in the living room. The rug brings it all together so nicely.
Enjoyed listening to this young man very much. 🌆
Could listen to him talk all day. Right and left-brained. Rare combo and probably what makes him so appealing. Love his style, too. Those windows!
I LOVE your home…what if you put a skinny glass shelf or two in front on your kitchen window to display those pretty glasses…..I think you would be crazy about it…..maybe some small plants too…hugs from carolyn in Columbus GA…I don’t like blue but I do LOVE IT IN YOUR HOME…..OMG….that rug is to die for…..you are a fantastic speaker and your are very handsome…..most people say UM so much that it is hard to listen to…..gorgeous guy and a gorgeous home….you remind me of my grandson….PLEASE keep painting…you are talented
Enjoyed every minute of this! Beautiful apartment and great vibe
Class Elegance and Flair.
His voice and the way he talked very impressive.
Beautiful apartment & beautiful man. Seriously, he is very handsome, and quite adorable.
As said before, it appears effortless yet so incredibly planned. This is a true gem!
Loved Bennett's tour - his story telling talent as he walked us through his beautiful home...such tailored style! Wish I could walk him through my home in southern California!
Those trees he was worried about initially...they must be such a view by themselves..loved this tour
A beautiful and livable home!
Appreciate this gorgeous "nest" and the insightful discussion of design. Such an intriguing blend of minimalist restraint, opulence, and creativity. Lovely! ❤
I almost passed up in viewing this one. But I am pleased that I didn't. Very, very nice apartment. Many likes about the decor but what stands out is the carpet, green and purple in the bedroom, and the framed dining wall. Well done and well-crafted living space! Thanks for sharing!
I love the feeling that I have watching and listening to him and touring his mesmerizing nest. Thank you so much for sharing!
Just lovely. Enchanting and elegant.
What a sublime space. This young man is truly a master of his craft.
Saw the same Giacometti lamp (as a floor lamp) in the lobby of the Hotel Chelsea just yesterday morning - excellent, stylish choice. Thoughtful, lovely home over Gramercy Park. Thanks for sharing with us.
