Tori Spelling dished on what it was like to live in the iconic Spelling family home dubbed “The Manor.” “When I was 12, my parents purchased property that became ‘The Manor,’ and it was Bing Crosby ’s house,” Spelling, 51, said on the Monday, August 19, episode of her “MisSpelling” podcast. “Which little known fact my mom loved Bing Crosby, [she was] a huge fan, so that was a fun connection — and then she tore all that s–t down.
” Tori shared that her parents, Aaron and Candy Spelling , brought her and her siblings to tour the estate before they purchased it. For Tori, the home reminded her of a Nancy Drew novel, and she wanted to live in the house. “There were hidden passageways and an underground library that you pushed on something and it went into these secret rooms,” she recalled.
“It was full on to the point where I was like, ‘Oh my god this is my life. Mom, you have to keep it.’” Tori’s parents ultimately bought the property, which was located on the same street as their original Los Angeles home.
However, they decided to bulldoze down everything to create their own home, which took them “six years” to build, according to the actress. Tori shared she officially moved into the home when she was 17. Once the house was completed, it ended up being a 56,000 square foot home, which included two driveways, two entrances and around “125” rooms, Tori estimated.
There was also a “massive” kitchen with a breakfast room attached,.
