The doors of his residence will open to treasure hunters beginning April 1st, by reservation.

This estate is packed to the brim with intellectual interests and collections. His house provides a retrospective of the ultimate eclectic spectrum of interests from art and music to knives and novels.
Arriving at his residence, guests enter the living room bathed in light featuring the sound of jazz music by none other than Artie Shaw. The crown jewel of the estate is one of Artie’s beloved clarinets. The other three clarinets are part of the Smithsonian’s permanent collection of American music history. The room embodies his beloved grand piano with sheets of hand-composed music atop and his saxophone waiting its turn to serenade once again. From there treasure hunters travel to the wardrobe room elegantly presenting vintage clothing and classic tuxedos. Guests will enjoy a residence filled with fine art, chess sets, fly-fishing equipment, paperweights and masks from the many corners of the world.
