Overview

  • The starting bid is set at €4.635 million for the 600-square-meter neoclassical mansion in Louveciennes.
  • The estate encompasses a two-hectare park, a tennis court, a pool with a 90-square-meter pool house and converted outbuildings housing guest quarters and a library.
  • Lagerfeld purchased the villa in 2010 and oversaw extensive renovations through 2012 to reflect his personal design vision.
  • Original furnishings and antiques were sold at Sotheby’s in May 2022, leaving the mansion largely empty ahead of the auction.
  • The sale continues the piecemeal disposal of Lagerfeld’s assets to satisfy the estate’s tax obligations.
