What is Clinton Kelly's net worth? A look at 'Self-Made Mansions' host's swanky Miami home and massive fortune
Ever watched 'Shark Tank', only to glare at the TV and think "I could have thought about that", every time a seemingly ingenious invention scores a huge investment? In case you have, don't worry, we feel you. There's something exciting about seeing people and their unique creativity go on to make it big. While turning rich overnight sounds amazing, you definitely would want to spend your money the right away. Thankfully, for fresh-out-of-the-water millionaires, Clinton Kelly is here to save the day, with a brand new HGTV show, 'Self-Made Mansions'.
The series follows award-winning reality TV host Kelly as he helps his newly-rich clientele go on the ultimate house hunt, helping them upgrade to a new lifestyle. Kelly, who has written for a range of publications in New York, worked as an editor at Marie Claire and a deputy editor at Mademoiselle and hosted shows such as 'Chew' and ' What Not To Wear', definitely knows a thing or two when it comes to fashion and lifestyle. A look at his Miami home will convince you that there's no better person for this job.
Kelly, who often spends time between New York, Connecticut and Miami, has an apartment in The Magic City, that he and his husband, Damon Bayles, along with their adorable dog Mary often use for weekend getaways. The 1,500 sqft apartment has a unique character. You can tell there's a lot of attention to detail. “I don’t care if things match. What I care about is that my space is filled with things that make me smile,” this is what Kelly had to say in an interview with HGTV Magazine. It's time we take the grand tour.
The kitchen is a stunning throwback
The apartment comes with an enclosed kitchen, complete with a 1950s range, and although that sounds aesthetically cool, cooking with it seemed impossible.
The couple opened up their kitchen space to accommodate a dining room as well. Adamant on keeping the mid-century design elements, Kelly went with cotton candy pink for the cabinets, a color that was immensely popular at one point.
The living room is his art gallery
The first thing that catches your eye in Kelly's living room would have to be the collection of portraits, ones that he's brought from flea markets over the years, proving that decor can be kitschy and budget-friendly. The living room gallery also has portraits that used to hang in Kelly's 'What Not To Wear' dressing room.
The bedroom has his favorite detail
Kelly believes that prints are a great way to showcase your personality. The bedroom has a cool beach vibe (it's Miami, after all), complete with a sailfish above the bed, which also happens to be his favorite detail.
Kelly has a net worth of $4M
A chic apartment in Miami isn't exactly cheap, but as a reality TV host, Kelly is doing quite well for himself. He currently has a net worth of $4M. The man dons multiple rolls — he's a reality TV show host, an author as well as a writer.
Catch the premiere of 'Self-Made Mansions' on January 8. HGTV GO will offer each episode of the series on Friday nights at 8|7c.
