Historic Millbrook 1830 Estate Once Owned By Blaine Trump Sells For $10.45M

MILLBROOK, NY — A Dutchess County estate formerly owned by Blaine Trump has sold for $10.45 million, marking the highest sale in the Millbrook post office area in more than two years and the third highest in Millbrook’s history, according to the realtors.

The property at 406 Shunpike Road spans 197.51 acres in the Hudson Valley. Its centerpiece is an 8,244-square-foot Greek Revival mansion dating to 1830, with double-height Corinthian columns. According to the listing, a previous owner moved the house about 40 miles from its original location the town of Hudson in 1989 and renovated it piece by piece.

Blaine and Robert Trump bought the estate in 1992 after searching the region for “land, lots of land, and a country house,” as Architectural Digest reported in 1997. The sale price came in well above the $8.8 million list price because it included an extra parcel adjacent to the property that was not part of the original listing.

The listing described the property as the Linley House Estate and said it included more than 113 pastoral acres across three parcels, with additional land available. The home has eight bedrooms, eight bathrooms and two half baths. Listing details also said the estate includes a chef’s kitchen, family room with a wood-burning fireplace, a veranda, a primary suite with two walk-in closets and dual en-suite baths, and guest rooms with private baths.

The grounds were marketed with a long list of recreational features. According to the listing, those included a heated Gunite pool, tennis and basketball courts, a fitness center, a 16-seat movie theater with concession stand, and a party barn. The listing also described newly cleared view sites, meandering trails, and views of the Catskills and the Hudson Valley.

Michael Passaro of Douglas Elliman and Andrew Gates of Houlihan Lawrence represented Trump in the sale.
