This is one of my favorite Homeworthy tours. Mar Jenning is incredibly talented, both for interior and exterior design. Very creative with his use of space. Just goes to show you don't need a huge home to be beautiful. Well done, Alison and Mar!

I love Mar’s enthusiasm for his beautiful home. Deservedly so as it’s just gorgeous. The outdoors/garden area is exquisite. Puppies pretty lovely too!
Thank you!!!
Girl y’all unstoppable❤😂🎉
As a dog lover this brought such a happy feeling to my heart. I love that he introduced his girls. 😊💕
Thanks for watching.
That’s the most beautiful shade of blue on the interior walls I’ve ever seen 💎
Agree!
Would love to know the paint name!
This is the most precious and darling home, I love it. Such class and warmth and wow, what a backyard.
Thank you thank you!!!
The detail of a Mar Jennings home are simply unmatched! It’s beautiful yet livable. So well thought out so he can live comfortably but still has a beautiful visual at every turn! ❤
Thank you so much for watching and this wonderful comment.
I watch a lot of house tours...this house is a paragon of good design and taste. Mar your home is inspiring.
OMG thank you!!!
Yes I agree. Johns wife
You have the kind of warmth that draws people to you. Your enthusiasm is contagious. Your house and gardens and doggies are simply perfection!
OMG I love you!!!! Thank you for the wonderful comment and for watching!
This is the most beautiful property I’ve ever seen. The level of love he Put into this property is amazing!! Loved it.
Thank you so much for the wonderful comment and watching.
In my next life I want to come back as your dog. Imagine living in that beautiful space without having to do any of the work.
I don' t know which I enjoyed more - his absolutely gorgeous house, or his infectious personality. Love this video!!
*Stunning* . I watch a lot of home tours, I could not turn away from this one. There are so many elements that appeal to me from the inside out. The mossy fireplace in the the Garden Studio...swoon. I'm blown away and will have to watch many times over. Thank you Homeworthy! Thank you Mar Jenning!
Thank you thank you...
That was great. A unique personality, and a man not afraid of getting out there and trying new ideas. The house is the perfect size. I renovated a house over a 12-year period, and my gardens were well known in the community. The house had Boston ivy over much of it...trimmed each week, and people would stop and chat and look at the grounds, however modest. Then I sold it in 2020 and much of what I had nurtured was torn out, including the ivy. I still have my photographs of what used to be, and that's enough, I guess. If you renovate, decorate, or create a beautiful garden...do it for yourself, to enjoy every day that you're there.
Cherish the memories! You did good and you will forever love what you created. xox
The kitchen window is absolutely stunning and the gardens💗🌷💗
Thank you thank you!!!
Wow! this home is absolutely one of my favorites. and judging by the 46K views in only 18 hours, I'm not alone! The color palette is so soothing and the gardens are so creative in such a small space. Mar is so likeable and clearly an outstanding designer. No wonder he's had so many successes in so many different industries.
Thank you for the delightful comment.
I love how passionate he is about his home. You can tell a lot of thought and care went into the design. Love the home and the cute little pups.
This has to be one of my favorite homes on this channel. Mar has impeccable taste and everything is done elegantly with beautiful furnishings, wallpapers, paint colors and personal touches. I love all the outdoor spaces and how he created functional rooms in the garden spaces. The dogs are soooo cute and I love their neck jewelry.
You have made my day!
Now this is a house of your dreams! The soft blue paint colors, the white lacquered doors, the artwork, the lighting, the cabinetry, the outdoor rooms, the closets, the gardens, and the host! Delightful and inspiring!! Well done, Homeworthy. Well done.
Thank you thank you!!!
Just beautiful inside and out! I don’t think I would want to ever leave.🧡
Thank you for watching!
I have to say one of my favorites …the detail and the gardens …the art…the surprises at every turn and every single choice he made was intentional and in great taste. This is going down as one of the most beautiful well thought out spaces I have ever seen and I watch every single home tour on utube LOL
OMG!!! What a review :))) I'm so delighted you enjoyed it.
A home that is not only beautiful but also very functional. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for watching!!!

I love you for that!!!! Thank you. xoxo
Lol... you said it so well.
🧡HERMES🧡 This gentleman is enjoying all he's worked for, a beautiful home inside & outside! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you!!!! I do love an orange box!
What a great guy! Is he still single? 🥰 I love his home. It seems to be the perfect physical representation of who he is, what he loves, and how he lives. This is what every home should be... uniquely beautiful and a true refection of its occupant, regardless of trends or fashion. Bravo!
Wow thank you!!!
@@marjenningstv Deserved! I found your show on Amazon this morning, so I'm now looking forward to streaming it. Congrats on all of your success!
You are so kind! Thanks again @@cooperwesley1536
This is one of my very favorite Homeworthy homes. so beautiful, so well thought out. I love the fact that stunning outdoor areas have been created on a small piece of land. Great job, Mar!
Thank you for watching and I'm delighted you enjoyed the tour!
The house is beautiful but I couldn’t stop looking at the two gorgeous pups.
They are the stars for sure. Thanks for watching us.
Me either. I went back and replayed several times just to see Daisy & Clover!
What a charming, functional and beautifully designed home! Proving one can live well in a constrained space, this is how it’s done 🎉❤
Thank you thank you!!!
Inspiring and precious home
Epitome of joy in his home. Tastefully decorated and who doesn’t love an ‘orange’ Hermes box.
Thank you thank you!!!
Great home! I just love watching people give a tour of their home with so much love and passion for their home decorating and unique personal belongings because I share the same passion for my home. The garage transformation was great too. Seems like such a nice guy and love the two well behaved pups!
Wow lovely to read such a nice comment. Thank you!!!
What a wonderful man, so dynamic and infectious! Love his personal stories and his two young ladies. It was as if he was hosting each and every viewer. Love his home.
Thank you for watching and the wonderful comment.
Such a lovely gentleman.
Thank you! My Mother would be proud.
Quiet luxury with nature, perfect home. This is one of my favorite homes showered. Mar must be a fantastic host as well.
I do love to entertain!! Thank you.
This home is the outward manifestation of a beautiful soul.
Thank you Linda! :)))
I agree with everyone's positive comments about this guy. A beautiful person and a genius. That home and garden is perfection.
What a gilded gem of a home! Mar has terrific taste and it certainly comes through in his home and gardens. Will be referencing this video for ideas in my own home! Wishing Mar as well as Daisy and Clover von Schnorkenheimer (sp?) many, many years of enjoyment in their very stylish home! One idea that has really worked well for me: I have several preserved boxwood globes around my home and I can't rave enough about how terrific they are -- very low maintenance -- I water spritz them once a month and keep them out of the sunlight. Adds a lovely additional element to any room. Cheers!
You have great ideas too! Thank you for watching and the wonderful comment. Daisy & Clover also thank you--Happy New Year to you and your family! xoxo Von Schnorkenrheimer is correct:))
Enjoyed this gentleman’s style, space & darling pups very much.
We all thank you.
Fabulous home and wonderful host!!!!!!
Thank you, thank you!!!
Wow! He thought of everything! Mar is probably the smartest, cleverest, most impressive & multi-talented designers I’ve ever seen and he has exquisite taste. Bravo!What an amazing & beautiful home he has created.♥️
I'm so honored and blessed with your review. Thank you. xoxo
I knew I was going to love his house when he came to the door with the best breed of dog and he has two cuties!
I do love my mini Schnauzers ! Thanks for watching.
Gorgeous and those dogs are super adorable!!!!
We all thank you!
Daisy and Clover Vonshnorkenhiemer are the cutest, my cat Willowbum Foozlebottom approves. Beautiful home and gardens, enigmatic owner. What a joyful place to call home.
You got me at the front DOOR!❤
I do love that Dutch door! Thanks for watching.
The use of space inside and outside the house is unbelievable! ❤ The eclectic look is not my favorite but in this house it is done with perfection and mastered perfectly. I would not change anything on this house if I was to live on it. The colors, the furniture, the garden, everything is stunning.
WOW! Thank you for the wonderful comment.
@@MarJenningsUSA You are a real PRO in interior decoration and design. And outdoors space also.
I love this man's home and his pets and his enthusiasm for life!

My absolute favorite home! This is the first time I'm 'meeting' Mar Jennings and I wish I had known him when I lived in New Canaan!

LOL I loved all of your interesting stories. Thanks so much for taking me around your home and gardens. It was great seeing the 2 ladies in your life too. 🥰 Kathleen
