An Insider’s Tour of the “Bachelorette” House in Curaçao

by hookedonhouses on July 24, 2012

When I was at the Haven Conference in Atlanta last month, I met Karah, who blogs at The Space Between. I was amazed to learn that she lives in Curaçao and traveled all the way from the Caribbean to be with us that week. Not only that, but the house where the Bachelorette finale was filmed belongs to friends of hers, and they let her take photos of it. Wow!

If you watched the finale Sunday night, then you saw bachelorette Emily Maynard introduce her two potential husbands Arie and Jef to her family in this gorgeous house on the water:

Here’s a photo Karah got of that living room when she visited recently:

It opens up to a large kitchen:

Hard to beat the view from the Master Bedroom:

Recognize this courtyard from all the promos they ran for the big finale?

Karah has the full house tour on her blog The Space Between of all the rooms, so head over there to see the rest. It’s all pretty fabulous while still looking like a relaxed island retreat. Ahhhh…wish I could transport myself to Curaçao right now.

She posted a tour of the yellow house (above) where Emily and her daughter Ricki stayed on island, too, and will be showing us the treehouse that was used as a fantasy suite later this week, so watch for that!

Thanks to Karah for the great photos, and to homeowners Jack and Susie for the tour!

Beautiful house! Was it just a filming location for the show, or did the Bachlorette’s family actually own the house?

Karah’s friends own the house. This is just where Emily’s family stayed during the shoot and they shot those scenes of them meeting Jef and Arie.

I couldn’t click on this fast enough because I’m a big fan of the show. That house is stunning! The other site had a link to see the real estate listing since it’s for sale(The Space Between) but it was just a general page so I couldn’t find out how much it was selling for. Do you know Julia? I’m just curious though. Don’t go to any trouble to find out.

Oh, really? I don’t know, but maybe Karah does!

Hi Christina from Dallas!! I don’t know for sure, but I think the home is listed in the range of $5 million USD.

Oh thanks for telling me. I just have to know the whole picture when I drool over houses. Especially square footage and price. That house is out of this world beautiful!

I am completely in love with your blog! I’ve come to the realization that half of the movies I watch over and over again are because of the homes they feature. I’ll usually spend weeks day dreaming about how I would live in the home or apartment after that.

You’ve found a seriously awesome niche and I can’t wait to read more…and more!

The house is gorgeous on the outside and the kitchen is pretty, but I never watch this show.

I loved this post! I’ve been watching The Bachelorette, and it was so fun to see this home “in person.” ;) Thanks, Julia and Karah!

Sweet home!! I don’t watch the show…, judging from pictures I saw, Curaçao is quite colorful place!

Wow! What views , and I love those seagrass chairs. Why go on vacation when you live there?! Going to check out the blog now. The internet is truly a miracle. Thanks.
