The Greenwich mansion that President Trump shared with Ivana Trump is set to be bulldozed.
The former couple bought the 19,786 square-foot Georgian on the Long Island Sound in the tony Connecticut town in 1982, shortly before the birth of their second child, Ivanka.
Ivana kept the 1939 home, which sits on 5.8 waterfront acres after the couple’s blockbuster 1992 divorce in the wake of President Trump’s infamous affair with Marla Maples.
A new owner bought it for $31.5 million in 2024, and now they plan to flatten the home.
According to documents submitted to the town’s Planning & Zoning Commission, the new owner wants to put in a new outdoor tennis court, outdoor swimming pool, a couple of auxillary buildings, an indoor tennis court, and a new main house.
According to local news site Patch, which was first to report the news, attorney John Tesei, who is representing the new ownerr, “explained in submitted documents the proposal calls for the combination of three lots into a single zoning lot, the removal of all existing structures, and a redevelopment of the property.”
The new home is being designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects, the famous firm that drew Billionaire’s Row supertall 220 Central Park South, the George W. Bush Presidential Library in Dallas, Texas, and the Oceam Course Club House at the Kiawah Island golf club in South Carolina, among many other buildings.
According to the Wall Street Journal, she wrote about the property in her 2017 book, “Raising Trump,” saying that she and Trump picked the place by flying around the area in a helicopter to survey estates.
It was sold by financier Robert Steinberg, who bought it in 1998 for $15 million. It had been on-and-off the market for several years.
