in Manhattan, is filled with lavish 1980s-era meets gilded age decor and finishes such as leopard print furniture, pink marble flooring, and gold-plated trim. All proceeds from the estate sale are slated to go to Ivana's three children: Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump and, Ivanka Trump.
"My mom absolutely loved that house," son Eric told The Journal, adding that the property"embodied Ivana Trump." Trump initially purchased the property — which sits between Fifth and Madison avenues — in 1992, the year that her divorce with former president Donald Trump was finalized, according to The Journal. In her 2017 book"Raising Trump," Trump noted that the property needed"significant work" after it had sat empty for nearly 12 years. Before she purchased the property, it was used as a dentist's office, The Journal reported.
In the 30 years that followed, Trump completely overhauled the historic property, which is also known as the the Adolph and Lillian Pavenstadt House. In 1994, she wasfor adding a burgundy canopy over the doorway of the home and gilding the wrought-iron door without the proper permits. Ivana also combined many of the rooms from the building's days as a dentist's office to create her aesthetic. For example, the main closet seems to go"on and on," according to Ivana's book. The property has an entertaining room that is decked out in emerald wallpaper and gold trim that Ivana described as"how Louis XVI would have lived if he had had money," according to The Journal. One of the bedrooms includes a canopy bed and a salmon-colored aesthetic.
No. Just no. Not for $2.5M and not for $26.5M.
That red velvet and white lacquer thing is pure Mittel Europe.
Feels like someone was stubbing my eyes with a toothpick… awful interior taste. Good luck to the lucky purchaser…
I just keep wondering why he ditched her - she’s his true mate. Peas in a pod
Does the Trump Org get a tax break? 🤔
The bathroom is hideous. You can tell nothing’ been updated for 30 years. She must have been really broke.
Oh my that is hideous, you can’t buy class.
Looks like a high end 19th century bordello
I'd rather buy the Christmas Story House. This thing is hideous and obscene. 🙄
it’s ugly
Hideous.
'It costs a lot of money to look this cheap!'- Dolly Parton
The only selling point for me, would be 'the garden'. Would have to rip all the concrete....
Tacky.
Money does not buy taste.
Ewe. This is dreadfully tacky. I think the decor would make me want jump out a window. Sensory overload! 😵💫
Everything I have from the 80s is burned. Tackiest decade ever.
Yikes! Is her decorator still in hiding?
It’s a complete gut, absolutely hideously tacky
plus an extra 7 million to remodel that entire thing !!
Wow - and it's so ugly inside. And, about those stairs.....
Multi million dollar, Russian oligarch, tacky trash style. 🤮 Costs a lot to be this trashy!
No thanks. I'd rather spend my time scrubbing my toilet.
And a fatal staircase.
morgfair I offer 'Fore' million
'split AMONG' - if more than 2.
Money can't buy taste or class
Some words all the trumps really need to learn: tacky, gaudy, garish, lurid, ostentatious
Tacky. Typical old money.
realMarkGraham tacky AF
Hideous.
Four storey for one person? Surely she didn't go to all the levels.
A bit too Saddam Husseinish for my taste.
And she fell to her death down the stairs in it! A homey, feel good…
morgfair They’ll never get no where near $26.5 mil for that place! No way!!
Gold-encrusted library and pink marble bathroom? Sounds warm and cozy.
Gut it. It's so ugly.
Gaudy! I can't even get a feel for the space, it's so busy and tacky.
Tess3761 She certainly shares her father’s taste in decorating. Ugh!🥴
morgfair “It’s a murder house. I wouldn’t go near there for $100.”
Clearly, Ivana's taste was all in her mouth.
morgfair She’s selling before NYC takes it away from her
Does that price tag include an exorcist to remove her ghost? Don’t forget she died there. 😳
Ewww
It's, uh, not as nasty as I thought it would be. Although the pink bathroom is a bit much. 👀
So it’s a tear down and redesign/reconstruct? Who wants to live in an 80’ time capsule? Marty McFly?
Sounds awful! Tacky beyond belief.
Have they fixed the stairs? I've heard they're pretty dangerous.
To quote my Mom: “Gaudy”
Compared to her grave it makes you sad
Yikes! That place is so ugly, other than the garden the whole place needs to be gutted, tacky.
I genuinely love real estate porn (i.e., I couldn't afford it without winning the lottery), but the décor in this one is absolutely atrocious.
The exterior of the building needs a lot of updating. The interior is also old fashioned. It’s always workable if the foundation is solid. It’s very old. The location is old money too. I can’t figure out who would want it. Maybe Rupert Murdoch.
Holy crap! That’s hideous. 🤮
It’s incredibly ostentatious but super consistent…
Well, the “kids” do need the money for legal expenses🤷🏼♀️.
Yuck 🤮
the place needs a complete redo, tacky as hell
🙆🏾♂
Wow
