Elin Nordegren, Swedish former model. She is also the ex-wife of professional golfer, Tiger Woods, with whom she shares two children. Elin has finally sold the North Palm Beach, Florida mansion she built after their divorce for $28.64 million — after a major price cut.
According to the Los Angeles Times, In March 2018, the former model put the home on the market for $49.5 million to “downsize.” In November 2019, after more than a year and a half on the market, she dropped the price by 10 percent — or $5 million — to $44.5 million. Now, at $28.64 million, the final sale price is over $20 million less than the original asking price.
The listing was held by Todd Peter and Cristina Condon of Sotheby’s International Realty.
The Wall Street Journal reported on the private listing exclusively in March 2018, with photos of the sprawling 11-bedroom, 18-bathroom home — complete with two kitchens, a roof deck, indoor theater, below-ground gym, custom wine cellar, outdoor swimming pool, twirling water slide, fire pit, basketball/pickleball court, and putting green (naturally).
Found in the 65-home enclave of Seminole Landing, the gated 1.4-acre estate centers on a Caribbean-inspired home of nearly 26,000 square feet. Eleven bedrooms, 18 bathrooms and breezy, light-filled living spaces fill the palatial floor plan.
A palm-lined driveway approaches the property, and dual staircases ascend to the dramatic entry. The staircase wraps around a floor-to-ceiling crystal chandelier. Other highlights include a gym, a wine cellar, a movie theater and a billiards room with a bar.

Almost every room overlooks the ocean, including the office and the second-story primary suite, which has picture windows, paneled walls and multiple fireplaces.
Balconies, patios and a cabana-style space are found at the back of the home, along with a palm-topped swimming pool and spa. A rooftop deck overlooks the estate, and at the edge of the property, a spacious lawn looks out on the Atlantic.
Todd Peter and Cristina Condon of Sotheby’s International Realty handled both ends of the deal, according to the Los Angeles Times.
A native of Sweden, Nordegren met Woods in 2001 and married him three years later. They have two children together. The 40-year-old also shares a child with former NFL Pro Bowler Jordan Cameron.
According to Wall Street Journal, architects called upon the British West Indies style when designing the house. Angela Reynolds, who previously did the interiors of Céline Dion’s home in nearby Jupiter (that property sold for $38.5 million in 2016) handled the decor.
Elin Nordegren became very private in the wake of her tumultuous August 2010 divorce from Woods. The former couple, who wed in 2004, split after the golfer became embroiled in a shocking sex scandal as numerous women came forward alleging extramarital affairs.
“I have moved on and I am in a good place,” Nordegren told PEOPLE in 2014. “My relationship with Tiger is centered around our children and we are doing really good – we really are – and I am so happy that is the case. He is a great father.”
Nordegren moved on romantically in 2011 with coal magnate Chris Cline, who was her new neighbor in the South Florida town. The pair split in 2017, and Cline died alongside his daughter Kameron in a helicopter crash in July 2019
Woods and Nordegren split custody of their children during the coronavirus lockdown, a source close to Woods told PEOPLE in April. Woods quarantined with his girlfriend, Erica Herman, while Nordegren had family members at her house.
