Taylor spent her early years working on a Christmas tree farm in Cumru Township, Pennsylvania. Then, the family moved to a five-bedroom house in Wyomissing, just outside the city of Reading. The 3,560 square foot Georgian Colonial home's high ceilings would have created excellent acoustics for the rising star.

Like the singer, the penthouse that sits Adelicia building is playful and girly, with bright pops of color throughout, and is indicative of a young girl's ideal playhouse.

However, the greatest aspect whether it is a house, would be the location because from the large windows of this house, according to the design, one would be able to view the city as well as green hills in the surroundings.

The penthouse's corner apartment has three bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, and a terrace where Taylor could sip her morning coffee.
