Here’s a topic for crooning about.
Bing Crosby’s midcentury modern mansion, which he constructed in the 1950s, has finally sold for $4.15 million after more than ten years on and off the market.

However, Wayne Butler and Garret Gray, the software entrepreneur who just sold his business Next Gear to Core Logic, are the purchasers after floating on and off the market for over a decade.

According to the description, amenities include an outdoor kitchen and terrace with views of the Coachella Valley, a pool and spa, putting green, and a whole guest wing with two bedrooms and two baths.
In addition to the “White Christmas” crooner, the house boasts Hollywood ties. John F. Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe are said to have visited the connected two-bedroom casita, which has its own kitchen and independent entrance. Whether or not the rumour is true, it influenced the renaming of the guest wing to the JFK wing.
