Tina Turner and her husband, Erwin Bach, were still expanding their real estate portfolio less than two years before the legendary singer died.

The couple, who wed in July 2013, announced in January 2022 that they shelled out $76 million for a sprawling waterfront estate in Zürich, Switzerland.

At the time, Bach told local newspaper Handelszeitung that he and Turner had decided to buy more property in the European country after gaining their Swiss citizenship. (Nonresidents are not allowed to own land in Switzerland.)

“[We] feel very comfortable in Switzerland,” Bach, who is a native of Germany, said.

In fact, they planned on using the home as a “new weekend retreat in the immediate vicinity.”

The impressive property features 10 different structures spread across over five acres of land. It also boasts its own private pond, stream, swimming pool and boat deck.

In addition to the hefty purchase, the pair own another estate in Küsnacht, where Turner died Wednesday at the age of 83.
