Sonja Morgan has finally sold her lavish New York City townhouse for $4.45 million during an online auction which officially came to an end on Wednesday, per the New York Post.
Last month in April, it was revealed that the RHONY alum, 60, would be auctioning off the 5,500 square foot home – with the residence being on and off the market for over a decade.
The TV personality first listed the Upper East Side property in 2013 for $9.95 million amid her divorce from John Adams Morgan.
Ahead of the auction, Sonja’s townhouse was put on the market once again in 2022 for $8.75 million, but the price was cut last year to $7.5 million.
The five-story abode was notably featured on the hit Bravo series when Morgan starred on the show for 11 years from 2010 through 2021.
