At Home with Nancy Grace

EXCLUSIVE: At home with Nancy Grace! On TV she's a tigress out to catch her prey, but at her new Southern digs she's a pussycat devoted to her eight-year-old twins and hubby

  • If you think the feisty crime show queen you watch on HLN is the same toughie in her personal life, think again - Nancy is full of Grace
  • Nancy and her husband David Linch have just finished building their rustic dream home in Georgia
  • The couple set out the welcome mat for Daily Mail Online, joined by their precious eight-year-old twins Lucy and John David along with their newly adopted pound pets
  • The house is chockful of kid-friendly delights and surprises: secret doors, hiding places, fantasy bedrooms and a bright red tubular slide that takes the twins - and sometimes Nancy - from the main floor to the basement playroom
  • Nancy takes nothing for granted: 'I have so many blessings I never dreamed of having.'

Bombshell tonight! Nancy Grace is a softie who loves nothing more than snuggling up with her husband and eight-year-old twins Lucy and John David and reading Harry Potter books, editing out the scary parts.

It’s a far cry from the Nancy Grace we watch every evening on HLN - the acid-tongued, tough-as-nails former prosecutor who has taken her crusade against crime to her top-rated cable television show.

Nancy was all gracious Southern charm as she welcomed  Daily Mail Online to her new Georgia home one recent morning with homemade turkey sausage and cheddar cheese breakfast muffins  - hot from the oven. Oh yes, Nancy knows how to cook - but more about that later.

The couple's new house is a contemporary country style with a Mediterranean flavor, featuring vaulted ceilings, imposing columns and wood beams. And it's totally kid-friendly.

Actually, it's even more than that. It's a kid's fantasy land with secret doors and passageways, a bedroom fit for a princess and a pirate, a bright red tubular slide that runs from an upstairs closet to the basement playroom and even a zip line in the backyard.

SCROLL DOWN FOR NANCY'S  UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL TOUR OF HER HOME 

Full of Grace: Talk about Southern hospitality! Nancy and her husband David Linch's new country-style home that is as warm and welcoming as the couple themselves. Nancy discovered the parcel of land three years ago and it was the couple's dream to build their dream house on the property

When it comes to catching a killer or finding a lost child, Nancy is all business. Last February she celebrated her tenth anniversary at HLN

Welcome in: Vaulted ceilings and imposing columns greet visitors to Nancy's new abode. Mediterranean-style lattice work adorns the front hall window. Glance down at the tiled floor at  the entry way and you find a mosaic of the sun, moon and two stars that symbolize Nancy, David and their twins. A blown-up photo of the youngsters can be see down the hallway- it was a special gift from Nancy to David

Key player: The centerpiece of Nancy's formal living is the baby grand piano. How she got it is a story unto itself. Nancy's mom Elizabeth, an accomplished pianist, told her daughter she found a great deal on a piano. Nancy was all in, but as it turned out her mom had misplaced a decimal point when she sent the price.  When Nancy got the bill she flipped. It took her a year to pay it off and she told the twins: 'You're taking piano lessons for the rest of your lives'

Let there be light: Nancy says you wouldn't recognize the ceiling fixture from the rusted out monstrosity she first spotted it in a used lamp store. But the TV talk host saw potential. She had it restored, took out the ugly cabbage leaves and replaced them with faux candle covers and turned it upside down

The formal dining room boasts a beautiful ash table, made in Italy, is Nancy's first-ever formal dining table. Nancy bought the silver tea service, at right on the sideboard, on layaway when she was a prosecutor. The TV talk star is looking forward to large family dinners over the holidays but the dinners will be bittersweet. Nancy recently lost her beloved father Mac, who was a freight agent for Southern Railway

Ahhh, that seems a tad to sterile for my tastes. Although the white furniture is pretty.

I'm guessing that she didn't want to show the "kid-friendly" rooms for privacy reasons.

if that's a functioning fireplace, the piano is way too close--especially if it's a genuine steinway ( as appears to be )--would bet the acoustics are incredible given the hard floors/tall ceilings

have never been able to listen to the woman for more than 30 seconds or so--too self-absorbed and abrasive

It looks familiar.

I think it's been used in something.

 Me too!smile

I just went down the laundry chute, when I was 3.

It went from the bedroom on the second floor, to the basement. With a door in the kitchen, to throw in kitchen towels and linens.

I landed in a laundry basket, on a table in the basement.

Hopped out....came running up the stairs....all ready to try it again!biggrin

My Dad, nailed it shut, before I got the chance.cry

Sniff, sniff.

The end of that fun ride!cry

This house looks sad and empty to me.

I do like the mosaic in the entryway.

I clicked the link and saw the rest of the pictures. It's just really odd to me. It's like she just moved in and hasn't got around to unpacking and decorating. Her kids' room has toys all piled along the wall, which seems normal, but not for an online exclusive, lol.

I agree with Nobody Just Nobody. That commode is atrocious.

Other than the bathroom decor, I think the house is gorgeous. Too bad it's owned by a bat-schit crazy, lunatic woman.

That's like putting lace on a bowling ball, lol. But, i love Nancy Grace. She keeps stories in the news and keeps the pressure on so I think she has helped solve a lot of crimes.

   I THOUGHT THE SAME THING!!  Personally I don't even know who Nancy Grace is.  I'd never heard of her before this article.  But that IS like putting lace on a bowling ball.  It's UGLY!

She's a bird brain. She was all over that Duke Lacrosse scandal as well as the Rolling Stone piece--on the WRONG side. Both turned out to be false--but her program did a lot of damage, especially in the Duke case.

I have never watched her show. The tone of her voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard for me - I just can't listen to her say a single word, it drives me nuts.

But that toilet it too damn much. It makes no sense. All that grout on the toilet is going to get FILTHY and her poor maid is going to have a hell of a time keeping it clean.

I really have no clue who this lady is.

That toilet isn't all tiles. It's painted.

You can get kits to do it yourself. The enamel paint will dry in about 21 days, give or take. Then it's part of it and will chip like porcelain or glass.

I use it a lot. Very forgiving paint on the right surface.

Hahaha. That pattern... I dunno. I'm sure someone thought it was a good idea. I just can't get into the whole tiled toilet idea. If you're going to drop a lot of money down the toilet (pun intended) why not make it an economically great one. Or one with a bidet. I can think of so many other options! I've seen several toilets where the bathroom sink drained into the commode tank to save money!

I want a bidet. I bet it'd save a lot of money on TP.

With my luck though, a certain toddler will think it's a water fountain.
