According to the Christie's listing, the estate served as a gathering place for dignitaries “including European royalty, senators, congressmen, governors, business leaders, and creative luminaries.”

In 1965, the United Nations hosted its 20th commemoration gala at the estate, and the town of Woodside is “Silicon Valley’s wealthiest and most prestigious enclave,” Christie’s added.

Before her arrest, Holmes' company was once valued at more than $9 billion.

'BAD BLOOD'

Theranos claimed it could detect medical conditions like cancer in a tiny sample of a customer's blood, attracting interest from Walgreens and Safeway.

But these claims were debunked by the Wall Street Journal in 2015, seeing Theranos' value crashing.

The US Department of Justice charged Holmes and Balwani in 2018, accusing them of defrauding investors, medical professionals and customers.
