Aubrey Plaza Sells Los Angeles Home Where Late Husband Jeff Baena Died for $4.4 Million

Actress Aubrey Plaza has finalized the sale of her Los Angeles home, a property notably associated with the tragic death of her late husband, Jeff Baena, for $4.4 million. This transaction concludes a protracted selling process that began nearly a year ago when Plaza first listed the residence for $6.5 million. Plaza, 42, who recently welcomed her first child with partner Christopher Abbott, had originally acquired the four-bedroom property in October 2022 for $4.7 million. At the time of purchase, it served as a marital home for the "Parks and Recreation" star and Baena. The property became the site of a profound personal tragedy in January 2025 when Baena died by suicide within its walls. Eight months following this devastating event, Plaza made the decision to place the home on the market, initially seeking $6.5 million. The asking price saw a reduction to $5.75 million within a few months, yet the property struggled to attract a definitive buyer. Sources indicated to Realtor.com® that while the home had received multiple offers and entered into escrow on several occasions, these deals ultimately fell through before they could be officially closed. By May of the current year, the listing was temporarily withdrawn from the market. It was subsequently relisted a few days later with a new agent, Carl Gambino of The Gambino Group at Compass, and a significantly reduced asking price of $5.3 million. The dwelling finally garnered more serious interest after Plaza further lowered her asking price to $4.85 million. In August, property records confirmed that the home was under a contingent offer, signaling that it was moving closer to a final sale. TMZ subsequently reported that Plaza had accepted an offer of $4.4 million. This final sale price represents a financial loss for Plaza compared to her initial purchase price of $4.7 million and a substantial markdown from her original listing price of $6.5 million. The sale marks the end of a difficult chapter for Plaza, who has also recently embraced new beginnings with the birth of her first child with Abbott. Plaza had announced her pregnancy in April, over a year after Baena's passing, and later expressed her anticipation for motherhood during an appearance on the "Smartless" podcast. The sale of this home, therefore, signifies both a personal transition and a significant financial resolution for the actress as she navigates her future with her new family.
