The Manhattan townhouse once owned by the late Ivana Trump continues to languish on the real estate market, with its asking price recently slashed for the second time since its initial listing in late 2022.
The residence, located on East 64th Street, is now offered at $19.5 million — a significant drop from its original $26.5 million price tag when it first hit the market just months after Trump’s passing in July 2022. This latest reduction follows a previous cut to $22.5 million last year.
The 8,725-square-foot property, which Trump acquired for $2.5 million in 1992 following her divorce from the former president, stands as a testament to her flamboyant taste and larger-than-life persona. Over three decades, the Czech-American businesswoman transformed the 17-room, five-bedroom townhouse into a showcase of maximalist design.
Eric Trump, son of the late socialite, previously told the Wall Street Journal that his mother “absolutely loved that house” and felt “so comfortable there.” The property held sentimental value for the family, with personal touches throughout, including a framed photograph of Trump embracing a young Ivanka in the leopard-print library.
Among the home’s unique features is a Versailles-inspired dining room and pink mirrored bathrooms. In her 2017 book Raising Trump, Ivana described one of the living rooms as “how Louis XVI would have lived if he had had money.”
The townhouse also bears witness to Trump’s friendships with fellow celebrities. From her in-home gym — converted from Don Jr.’s former bedroom — she could reportedly see into the residence of fashion designer Donatella Versace across the street. Eric Trump recalled that his mother would wave to Versace during her workouts, noting, “They loved each other.”
Despite the home’s interesting past, it’s been hard to sell in today’s high-end housing market which has been hurt by high interest rates.
