A Star-Studded Legacy 🌟🎶🏡
Built in 1929, this grand French chateau-style mansion was purchased by Bing Crosby and his wife, Kathryn Grant, in the 1960s. They raised their three children here, and the home remained in the Crosby family until this year. Following Kathryn’s passing in 2024, the estate is now being offered by their son, Harry Crosby.
From the grand staircase sourced from William Randolph Hearst’s collection to the richly carved fireplace in Bing’s study and a dazzling Venetian chandelier in the dining room—this home is a museum of elegance and history.
