Late socialite Ivana Trump‘s palatial New York City townhouse has finally found a buyer—more than three years after it was put on the market for $26.5 million.
President Donald Trump‘s former spouse resided in the home for more than 10 years, and it was in the Upper East Side property where Ivana died at the age of 73 from injuries she sustained when she fell down the stairs in the home.
Four months after her death, the five-bedroom, five-bathroom dwelling, which Ivana bought for $2.5 million in October 1992, was put on the market.
However, despite offering an array of luxurious amenities and a very ornate aesthetic, the townhouse struggled to find a buyer and it underwent multiple price changes over the next couple of years, eventually dropping to $17.9 million in August 2025.
Now, The Wall Street Journal reports that the property has found a buyer for an even lower amount, changing hands for $14 million. While that deal is not yet reflected in property records, the home’s listing agent, Adam Modlin, confirmed the sale to the outlet, noting that he represented both the buyer and the seller.
He declined to share any information about the identity of the buyer and it is not known whether they plan to carry out any renovations on the dwelling, which was built in 1899 but given a unique design overhaul by Ivana during the years that she spent living there.
The socialite moved to the property just two years after her marriage to Trump ended after 15 years. The former couple shared three children, Don Jr., Eric, and Ivanka, who inherited almost all of their mother’s remaining assets when she died.
Eric was named in his mother’s will as the executor of her estate, and he was tasked with managing its dissolution, including, it’s understood, the sale of her New York home, as well as a pied à terre in Miami Beach and real estate in France.
It’s unclear whether the proceeds from the sale of the home will be split equally among the three siblings, all of whom live in Florida, not far from their father’s Mar-a-Lago estate, although many of them still retain residences in New York City.
Speaking to The Wall Street Journal about the home’s original listing, Eric described the “style and elegance” of the townhouse as being the perfect embodiment of his mother’s style, saying: “My mom absolutely loved that house.
“She was so comfortable there,” he added. “It was the last possession in the world she would ever have gotten rid of.”
The interiors of the 8,725-square-foot, limestone townhome, which was filled with gold accents and ample touches of animal print, certainly transport visitors back to the ritzy heyday of the 1980s, with the listing describing it as a “grand and lavish” abode.
“Grand and lavish, this limestone townhouse, on a highly coveted block known for its magnificent residences, is truly unparalleled,” it stated, noting that the property was “designed for luxurious living and the highest caliber entertaining.”
“A storied townhouse that has played host to luminaries from all industries, this once-in-a-lifetime offering awaits the most discerning buyer,” the description added.
While the home boasts many luxurious amenities, there is one key feature it is lacking: a full kitchen, which Ivana no longer found a use for as she got older and did less cooking. It does come complete with two galley-style cooking spaces, however.
During her marriage to Trump, Ivana spent her time flitting between an enormous Connecticut mansion that her husband bought in 1982, five years after they tied the knot, and a penthouse apartment at his Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue.
Following their divorce in 1990, Ivana took over ownership of the Greenwich, CT, property—although she sold it in 1998 for $15 million, having made her New York City dwelling her primary residence.
During the final years of her life, Ivana was regularly seen out and about on the Upper East Side, enjoying meals out in her local neighborhood, although she did routinely travel to Europe during the summer months.
Ivana died inside her New York home on July 14, 2022, after falling down the stairs at the dwelling, with the New York City Office of the Chief Medical Examiner later ruling that her death had been the result of the injuries she sustained during the accident.
After her death, the socialite’s three children issued a statement praising her many talents, describing her as a “force.”
“Our mother was an incredible woman—a force in business, a world-class athlete, a radiant beauty, and caring mother and friend,” they said.
