Holiday House (now called High Watch) is an 11,000 square feet (1,000 m2) home, sitting on 5 acres (2.0 ha) in the Watch Hill section of Westerly, Rhode Island, built in 1930 for the Harkness family, heirs to Standard Oil. Since 2013, it has been owned by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift (b. 1989). Inspired by the house's history and its former owner, Rebekah Harkness, Swift released a song titled "The Last Great American Dynasty" from her eighth studio album "Folklore" (2020).
Taylor Swift is an influential performing artist known for her songs about her private life and her voice, for which she has received much widespread critical plaudits and media appreciation. As one of the giants in the music industry who has a huge net worth to her name, Taylor Swift is one of the wealthiest entertainers in the world.
She bought the Rhode Island mansion for US$17.75 million in 2013, and she reportedly paid for it in cash. Taylor then renamed the property High Watch. Since then, the musician has put her hard-earned, lavish home to good use by hosting numerous parties with famous friends, known as her squad.
The mansion sits on the highest point in Watch Hill and features 700 feet (210 m) of shoreline and views of Little Narragansett Bay. It includes eight bedrooms, eight fireplaces, and a pool in the back. Among all her properties, this one is said to be her favorite.
