The magnificent 24,000 square foot mansion was bought for movie star Gloria Swanson by Joseph Kennedy. Kennedy was the patriarch of the Kennedy family and was having a torrid affair with Swanson.
The mansion was originally built for Count Stefan de Poniatowski in the mid-1920s. The Polish count, who claimed to be heir to the Polish throne lost his fortune in the 1929 stock market crash.
The house contains gilded moldings and a stained glass ceiling in the kitchen. It also contains huge fireplaces in almost every room. The mansion also sits on five acres hidden behind old fashioned walls. It boasts 8 bedrooms, 9 full bathrooms, five powder rooms, “banquet sized reception rooms,” four full kitchens, an elevator and a 7-car garage, according to a former listing.
