Benson Mansion

Mall:InfoboxLocation
The **Benson Mansion** is where the Bensons and Valentes live. The first known owners were Bernie Benson's parents, and now the mansion is under the ownership of their granddaughter Luna Valente.

## History

The mansion had once belonged to Luna's late biological father Bernie Benson's parents, but after Bernie and Lili Benson got married, they moved into the mansion along with Lili's older sister Sharon. After an unknown amount of time, Sharon accidentally caused a house fire when she was arguing with Lili, and Lili and Bernie died in the fire. After repairing the damage, Sharon and her adoptive daughter Ámbar moved into the mansion.

The daily staff of the mansion live on site in the servant's quarters. When Sharon hired Mónica and Miguel Valente to work in the mansion, they moved into the house with their daughter Luna. After Simón Álvarez followed Luna to Buenos Aires, he hid in the storeroom before finding a permanent place to live. A few weeks later, Tino Alcaraz and Cato Alcoba were hired as the new chauffeur and head of maintenance, respectively, and moved into the residence as well.

After it was revealed that Luna was the rightful heir of the Benson fortune and owner of the mansion, Sharon fled the country and the mansion came into the ownership of Luna and her parents. They then moved back there together with Luna's grandfather Alfredo Bilder and Ámbar. After the Roller Band lost their apartment, Luna invited them to stay in the mansion. Luna also hosted the exchange student Michel for some time. In Season 3/Episode 59, there is a fire in the mansion once again, but the damage is repaired within a month.
