Few Hollywood insiders have reached the star-status that Lauren Bacall has. The celebrated actress captivated the world not only with her talent but also her timeless style. Last August, the legendary icon passed away, leaving behind the Central Park apartment that she called home for the past 53 years. If the $26 million asking price seems a little steep, you won’t believe the actress’s treasure-filled estate, which just went to auction last week. Click through for an inside look at what’s went on the block.
The actress’s nine-room apartment is located in the storied Dakota Building on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, located directly across from Central Park.
Bacall lived at the Dakota until her death at the age of 89. A collector her entire life, the actress showcased a wide range of antiques and art throughout her home.
