  • Taylor Swift released her seventh studio album, "Lover," on August 23.
  • "Cornelia Street," the ninth track, references a three-story Greenwich Village townhouse Swift briefly rented back in 2016, according to People.
  • The home has its own indoor pool with a glass chandelier hanging over it, and the dining room walls feature antique bricks sourced from Paris.

Taylor Swift's fans have kept busy trying to decode every lyric in her recently released album, "Lover."

The pop superstar's latest studio release (her seventh) has been a massive success since the moment it dropped on August 23. One of the most talked-about tracks is "Cornelia Street," an emotional love song where Swift sings about the early days of a relationship and being unable to walk the titular street ever again if the romance were to end.

As it turns out, the song's meaning is fairly straightforward - Swift did rent a home on the Greenwich Village street back in 2016. And - perhaps unsurprisingly, to anyone who has an idea about the singer's real estate portfolio - the property is spectacular.

Keep reading for a closer look at 23 Cornelia Street and for more information about the song's connection to it.
