Robin Williams' house

This is Robin Williams' former house.

It is situated at 95 Saint Thomas Way in Tiburon, California.

The picturesque waterfront community lies to the north of San Francisco, in a small enclave called Paradise Cay.

On August 11th, 2014, Hollywood actor Robin Williams committed suicide in one of the bedrooms on this 6,500-square-foot property.

The coroner's report indicates that the 63-year-old locked his bedroom door, grabbed a belt, and then hanged himself from a closet door frame.

He was last seen the night before by his wife, Susan Schneider, who went to bed at roughly 10.30 p.m.

At the time, Williams was reportedly suffering from insomnia due to Parkinson's disease. As a result, he chose to sleep in one of the empty bedrooms.

The room in question belonged to his teenage stepson, who had been staying at his father's house.

On the morning of August 11th, Susan woke up and saw that her husband's door was still closed. Presuming that he had overslept, she decided to leave and run some errands.

Not long after, Williams' assistant, Rebecca Erwin Spencer, and her husband, Dan, arrived at the house.

The couple had been close friends of the actor for years and were regulars at his home. According to neighbors, they were constantly coming and going.

That morning, Rebecca grew increasingly concerned about the fact that Williams was still in his room. Thinking that it was out of character for him, she knocked on his door and slipped a note under it, asking him if he was OK.

When there was no response, Rebecca and Dan used a paperclip to unlock the push-button lock on the door and enter the bedroom.

After walking inside, they were met with the horrific sight of Williams hanging from a closet frame.

Although the couple called 911, it was of no use, as the actor was long dead.

The paramedics who arrived at the house did not attempt to resuscitate Williams, as rigor mortis had already set in—a sign that he had been dead for at least 2–4 hours.

Williams suffered from anxiety, paranoia, insomnia, and depression in the months preceding his death. He also experienced other physical ailments, such as constipation, tremors, and stomach cramps.

Sadly, it seems as though both his mental and physical health continued to decline until he finally decided to take his own life.

95 Saint Thomas Way

Robin Williams house

This is a realtor's photograph of 95 Saint Thomas Way.

Robin Williams purchased the house for $4.05 million in December 2008.

If you look at the property on Google Street View, you'll notice that it has been blurred out at the owner's request.

The house, which was built in 1987, has six bedrooms. It sits at the end of a cul-de-sac in Paradise Cay, overlooking San Francisco Bay.

On the left, we've added a photograph of Williams and his wife, Susan Schneider. The couple were married on October 22nd, 2011—nearly three years before he committed suicide.

Schneider started a legal dispute with Williams' children following his suicide.

At the time of his death, the actor owned two properties—this house in Tiburon and a second home in Napa.

Williams' will gave Schneider this house, while his three children were given ownership of the Napa residence. The will also stated that most of his jewelry, personal items, awards, and photos should go to his children.

However, Schneider felt that Williams' estate wasn't paying her enough to maintain their large house in Tiburon. She also took issue with some of the items that his children had been taking.

The legal dispute was eventually settled out of court in 2015, when Schneider was allowed to keep a select number of personal items.

In November 2019, Schneider listed the house for sale for $7.25 million. One year later, after three price drops, she eventually sold it for $5.35 million.

The property tax, which is more than $50,000 per year, may have influenced her decision to sell.

Suicide

Suicide

Robin Williams' autopsy report indicates that this is the bedroom where he committed suicide.

The report stated that the room was at the end of a long hallway.

Inside, there was a large wood-framed bunk bed (A), a wood-shelved media cabinet (B), and three padded ottomans underneath the window (C).

There were also three padded stools underneath the media cabinet (D). However, these are not present in the photograph.

The bedroom had one ensuite bathroom (F) and two closets. The closets were on the southeastern side (G) and the northwestern side (E).

In the coroner's report, it is noted that Williams' body was found hanging on the exterior side of the northwestern closet (E).

The closet in question is conspicuously absent in this photograph.

The actor did not leave a suicide note. His iPhone, which had to be recharged before it could be switched on, showed no signs that he had contacted anyone.

There was no evidence that he had been engaging in erotic asphyxiation.

Williams had been sleeping on the bottom bunk in this bedroom due to his insomnia and general restlessness, which caused him to move around a lot in bed and talk in his sleep.
