The four-floor Hillsborough mansion "remains available on the market for traditional sale" after the owner on Wednesday canceled its auction, Compass Broker Associate Alex Buljan told FOX Business. It had been slated Thursday to hit Concierge Auctions’ virtual auction block in cooperation with Buljan and his father, Pierre Buljan, according to a mid-May blog post from the real estate auction firm. FOX Business sought comment from Concierge Auctions regarding the called-off auction.
The Hillsborough, California replica, which is sometimes called a "Western White House" and has not belonged to the Hearst family for quite some time, surfaced for sale in June 2023, sporting a $38.9 million price tag, The Wall Street Journal reported last year. Its history includes multiple past sales. Redfin reported the national median asking price of homes at $392,200 for the four weeks ending June 2.
