- If you've ever dreamed of living in a European chateau, well now you can. Sort of. Emery Ortiz showed us inside her Bronx apartment that she and her husband decorated to look like a 19th century victorian home. It's filled to the brim with antique treasures, gorgeous wall paper, colorful tiles, and so much more. As Emery likes to say, her style is "affordable opulence." This two-bedroom, two-bathroom co-op is on the market for $325,000 with Jonathan Cabrera at Halstead. Enjoy!

Beautiful. It is your own style and it made you happy. To the lady in the comments who said they “dropped acid” in order to decorate this way- not every person must indulge in drugs in order to enjoy life and be inspired.
I love her response as to why they did it, it was a manifestation of their love for each other! Don't sleep on The Bronx, there is a lot of culture, beautiful architecture, and eloquent, talented, educated people! That said, being more of a minimalist, the thought of cleaning that apartment gave me anxiety!
Victorian had servants to maintain their homes, even the middle class could afford help. I hope she employs a housekeeper to keep her beautiful home looking its best. No fun if all you do is clean when you're home.
I know! That was so touching how she put it!
Both my parents are from The Bronx. I love it.

This woman is living her best life- she’s great
Dang! Amazing!!! 63k in NYC??? 8 years ago??? Where was I? Sleep? (I guess so)
I've watched almost every video of this channel and this is the only one I commented on because I absolutely LOVED the originality, ingenuity and obvious love that went into this home. Quality content, thank you to Emory for opening her home to the internet!
Beautiful apartment. Full of color and character. How sad that people are so rude in the comment section. They didn't have a mother advise them if they don't anything nice to say than say NOTHING at all.
So much fun! I esp. love the green tile, the blue and white dining nook and the oversized art in the bathroom. So tired of minimalist greige places!
I AGREE! When looking at these types of tours, I just think it's so hilarious to read the comments of all of the minimalists. Some of them sounds so aggrieved and so upset! I think it's just hilarious. There seems to be a resentful tone as if these people don't have a right to design and fill their spaces the way they want to. I love these kinds of spaces there's so much character and use of color. I am just still thinking in my mind of that green wall it just looks so attracting it draws you. Of course having that piano yes I love that. Some of us like things and pictures and textures and patterns and colors and the storyline...
All the color is absolutely amazing and the work her husband did is amazing. So unique and definitely opulent.
Most interesting room for me was the living room with the tile and wood ceiling. It strikes me that the ceiling wouldn't work without the mirrored wall, its visual weight would oppress a narrow room with windows at one end, and the mirrored wall beautifully both doubles one's impression of the room's width, and adds light. Fun to make something left over by previous tenant work for your design needs.
I LOVE THIS!! SOOOOOOOO MUCH CHARACTER. THERE'S A STORY EVERYWHERE.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
We didn't get to see the kitchen :( What a beautiful home, love the description of affordable opulence and that space being a visual love note between her and her husband. Love all of this
The sweetest thing! "How do you translate love in design..."
I really wanted to see the kitchen! Loved the tour! 🥰
Wow love this I’m 48 I just love the old style
"How do you translate love into design"--I love that. (I have a huge ornate mirror next to my dining table too!)
Stunning..what a labor of love. Beautiful
Simply stunning.
Such inspiring and meticulous vision. And the baby in the fascinator is cute.
SORROUND YOURSELF WITH THE THINGS THAT YOU LIKE AND BE HAPPY. WONDERFUL JOB. 👍
Bless her heart. I imagine for every pot there's a kettle and someone will love it. For me, the video alone almost set my vertigo off. I wouldn't be able to view it in person.
@Jenny's Road The British use a LOT of wall paper, patterns & color. I was impressed with this home for its individuality, creativity & the ability to transport every person "out of the cold cement city that exists outside."
Cleaning any home takes time.
If you view a lot of Fashion Designers' homes, they will use a "ton of color & patterns - minimalism is not the focus usually."
As you relayed, "every pot there's a kettle & someone will love it."
OH MY GODDESS. this is officially my favorite home tour on youtube! i'm blown away!!! amazing.
A masterpiece WOW....
So brave with her patterns and choices. Love and designs.
love this style. The woodwork and ceiling are out of this world! The wallpaper and all the little touches are so sweet. You have done an extremely fantastic artistic piece of work on your new home. A beautiful job. Mirrors certainly will make any room look so much larger and brings in alot of light Very talented people, very professional in your being so creative. Love the Fascinators too, Such a cute idea.
Do not think we ever did see the kitchen?
I love this so much! Thank you Emory for sharing your amazing home and your amazing self xxxx
Great stuff! It’s refreshing to see others like you and it’s owners have such a full house of stuff. I would’ve never thought that at all but they would’ve been minimalist. Ha ha😊👏🏡
Lavish and I love it! Stunning. 💕
The presenter is in my view appears to be minimalist who may think everything should blend, match and be chic. This lady has depth of imagination and maximalist that others would find overwhelming.
I love the green tiled room and the bathroom! Would’ve loved to see the kitchen too.
Nice for the designer; but to busy for me.
I liked it but couldn't live in it.. it just got me dizzy watching it. But talk about a labor of love!
Yeah! It's beautiful to look at. Just like a museum
Stunning! I Love this and I love her and the thought it took to do what her and her husband did. Amazing!
The place is mysterious in a beautiful way. It makes me think of New Orleans or a Gabriel Garcia Marquez novel. There’s something magical about it.
love the creativeness.
A lot of these 6 story prewar Bronx buildings have great proportions and bones. Ceilings usually over 8 feet high. And designed with nice windows in every room including the bathrooms. Only problem is floors may not be cement and sound travels to neighbors. Glad this couple got to be creative.
It’s so weird. So many people feel so comfortable being absolutely vile in the comment section, but I am sure they would pretend to be polite civil people if you were to ever meet them in person. What truly is gaudy and tacky and quite honestly just plain old stupid- is the idea that you should act like a complete imbecile as soon as you are given any anonymity. Like grow up people, your comments are being read by the people who made the video, by the people you are directing all the stupidity towards. Have some sense of empathy and let your sharp but witless opinions just stay in a bolted closet somewhere.
Creativity and love. Very beautiful.
Namaste 🙏🏿, Absolutely beautiful home, Thank you for sharing 💙
Interesting, creative & a take away from the cement world outside.
Wow! 💜 to see very creative spaces.
I LOVE IT IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
So amazing!
I love the apartment. Go big or go home.. Ortiz is home 🤍
The only disgusting thing about this is the commentary. Although I personally prefer minimalism, I love the decor because the owner clearly loves her surroundings, finds joy in it and appears to be so sincere and genuine in her love for her home and her family. She's just adorable and so is her home. Some of the comments are so trollish, vile and unnecessary.
You’re so kind.
I love it. So imaginative and really gorgeous x
Stunning, though quiet sad to think they've only lived in it for a few years, it will be sold and alas, redesigned!
It needs to be redesigned, it’s quite offensive.
did she say she was going to sell it? I must've missed it.
Its amazing
Stunning
Beatiful !! I love your stile !!!
It’s like a beautiful chaos
So wonderful!
Beautiful collection
Love it!
I love it!I sometimes I wish my space could just get to busy for me but I’m willing to bet that will never happen to me !❤️
I wonder how many viewers understood the comments about the "...husband's gradmother's phone". The ladies are referring to a "Twilight Zone" episode in which Billy Mumy portrays a little boy who talks to his dead grandmother via a toy telephone. I hope Emery's phone isn't THAT kind of phone!
So sad they sold this place! Such an amazing place. Hopefully they will make their next home even more spectacular.
@@EOrtiz-mr3tv I absolutely loved your aesthetic and your choices. I would love to see what you do next!
@@EOrtiz-mr3tv YAAAY! So glad you didn't sell. I was just about to post the following comment on the last video I saw to get your attention. [You posted this video's link on that Bronx apt renting for only $800+ for her see THIS video.]
*Before knowing you rented it out, here's MY INTENDED COMMENT:
I'd love to visit.... I'd like to use it as an AirBNB... *I wish she would just rent/lease it out instead of selling it. I think it would be FANTASTIC for photo shoots and films too. I doubt anyone who buys it would keep the decor as beautifully quirky as it is, which is sad.* 😢 I can stop crying now.😁
God Bless!💙
We decided not to sell. It’s being rented until next February. We are now living in a home outside of NY where everyone designs for the next buyer (resale designing 😞). We are don’t care about that, it’s more about how the space makes you feel.
I was to see her new house!!!!
wild.....love it
Many of us have read stories of the brownstones and gentrification in Brooklyn. The Bronx, particularly the area of "The Grand Concourse" has beautiful buildings, many Art Deco that rival many Manhattan apartments. When they were built in the 20's and 30's they were considered upscale for the day.
I love this apartment. The taxidermy 🦚 is a dream😍😍😍
So sweet! Designing with love.
Wow it’s so beautiful ❤️
What a fascinating person.
Really?
It's exquisite. The kind of place I'd rather visit than live in.
Same!
Congratulations, my love! Great job!
There NO rhyme or reason. I'm just impressed by the price she paid and what it's worth now. Too busy
Love in design...wow!
Love love love this !!!
this is AWESOME
The lady is happy with it so that's all that matters she seems she got it at a great price lucky her hope she gets the price she's looking for it the house prices in Dublin are gone though the roof terrible for young people trying to get started in life all the best
The palace of Versailles and the Victorian style have nothing to do with each other.
The palace of Versailles is in France and was build 1661-1715. The Victorian era refers to Queen Victoria's reign 1837-1901, the Victorian style refers to the style that existed in Great Britain during that time.
Also the home is not decorated in the Victorian style or like the Versailles.
That was the visitor who made that mistake.. not the homeowner..
@@robinjones1955 Never claimed the owner said it. The visitor is the host of the channel and the channel is about interior decoration, so she should know those two styles have nothing to do with each other.
The green tiles are very victorian in look, as is some of the furniture. It wasn't an architectural history video.
$63 thousand reason's to live in opulence beautiful attention to creating a lavish look
Too busy for me.. but i love the green tile! And some of the wallpaper.. i love the wingback type chairs with the upholstered top..ive seen them before..
Hermosa transformación, 👏
To each his own.
Insanely beautiful!
Love | Love | Love
Beautiful Dominican lady .
How come the kitchen was left out? And no babies room?
Some people don’t want kids....?.....
@@emu9520 she literally talks about her 1 year old daughter and how they did the reno before the babies.......?......
Just love your channel!
So lovely,lovely lovely LOVE❤
i had to fight to hear it over the silly music. but i loved the appartment. xx
Love 💕 love 💗 love ❤️
I need to know the tile designers name
I love the unique design and her reason. But I don't understand why you do it if selling. You sure cut your buyer market down.
Forget the Apartment (Yes its Nice) let's talk about your Coat..Beautiful..
Period-correct Victorian is an assault on the senses, but to each their own
This is not period correct, this is gaudy!
it will have to be redesigned
OH......MY......GAUDY!!!!
I appreciate the imagination, uniqueness and all that, but it looks like it needs a good clean.
A good deep clean, and a good edit.
I’m sorry is too much for a little place ! Too dark !too much😏I would get a headache there😔
this is dope
Hi! Did you ever sell?
No. We pulled it from the market and decided to rent it.
did they sell this apartment
We did not sell. We couldn’t part with the apartment. It’s being rented until February 2024.
@@EOrtiz-mr3tv your instagram , please, thank you
It's pretty, but it feels like an antique store.
No idea why she keeps talking about Versaille. This is nothing like Versaille.
it's a beautiful and yet soo much going on ,,, my opinion is that it's a too much and to be honest it's too dark and it needs to bright sun shining into the house to air breath ,,, other then that very nice ,, sorry
Auggh! Tooooo much!
Nausea!
Can't breathe!
When more is NOT more. I got a headache watching this.
The camera person really needs training. Why so fast? It is hard to see the rooms and details.
