Ivana Trump’s NYC townhouse just saw another price cut

When the late Ivana Trump opened the doors of her limestone townhouse on East 64th Street, visitors stepped into a world of gold fabrics, mirrored baths and leopard-spotted walls. 

For three decades, the residence was both her personal retreat and the setting for the kind of entertaining that defined her New York years. 

Today, that same 8,725-square-foot property sits on the market at $17.9 million following its most recent price cut — roughly one-third below the $26.5 million it first sought in 2022, The Post has learned. 

When Trump died in July 2022 at age 73, the townhouse was listed just months later at $26.5 million. 

Since then, it has undergone a series of price cuts: to $22.5 million in September 2023, to $19.5 million last summer — and now to $17.9 million. The overall decline represents about 32% from the original ask.

The five-story, 20-foot-wide dwelling carries with it both a history and a look that could only belong to her. 

After her highly publicized divorce from now-President Donald Trump, she bought the townhouse in 1992 for $2.5 million, or about $5.4 million in today’s dollars. 

Over time, she transformed the interiors into an unapologetically maximalist statement — rooms dense with fabric, pattern and sparkle.

The grand entrance gallery, lit by a crystal chandelier and edged with gilded paneling, sets the tone for the rest of the townhouse. Just beyond, a dining room sheathed in gold fabric leads into living spaces where a white grand piano occupies pride of place. 

Trump never played herself, but regularly brought in musicians to perform for guests.

On the third floor, a library entirely wrapped in leopard print stood as a signature expression of her flair. 

Wallpaper, upholstery and artwork all echoed the theme, right down to a painting of two leopards in mid-play. On a sofa sat a doll made in her likeness, dressed in a silver jacket and a fur stole.

Her son Eric Trump said the house embodied her sense of comfort and belonging.

“My mom absolutely loved that house,” he told the Wall Street Journal in 2022. “She was so comfortable there,” he said.

It wasn’t just décor that gave the home its resonance. Each morning, she made her way to a private balcony off the primary suite. 

“She used to go out on the private balcony every morning with coffee and she’d read the paper,” Eric recalled. 

The south-facing terrace and garden beyond pulled in daylight, a rare amenity in Manhattan’s dense grid.

While the townhouse was often photographed for its gilded interiors, it was also the setting for family routines. 

Eric Trump remembered evenings spent around the dining table as a teenager, alongside his siblings Donald Jr. and Ivanka. Conversations often gave way to gatherings that drew both celebrities and royalty.

Parties featured pianists, actors and foreign dignitaries. Even in the most ornate of rooms, Trump maintained a sense of intimacy, surrounding herself with friends and family.

The details of her life remained woven into the house long after her children moved out. 

Donald Trump Jr.’s former bedroom was eventually remade into a gym, where she passed time on a treadmill positioned to look across the street into the home of fashion designer Donatella Versace.

 “They loved each other,” Eric Trump said, noting that his mother would wave from her workouts as Versace returned the greeting.

Trump chronicled her relationship to the townhouse in her 2017 memoir “Raising Trump.” She described one living room as “how Louis XVI would have lived if he had had money.” 

Her wardrobe space, she wrote, extended so far that it seemed endless. “I call it Indochine, because by the time you get to the end of it, you might as well be in another continent,” she said.

Those flourishes helped distinguish the house in a city filled with classical townhomes. Pink mirrored bathrooms, Versailles-inspired details and fabrics chosen for their sheen or saturation made the residence stand apart from the pared-down minimalism more common among contemporary buyers.

The reductions reflect both the challenges of finding buyers for highly personalized homes and the current state of the Manhattan luxury townhouse market, where properties with traditional layouts and muted interiors are often quicker to move.

While Trump’s home carries a distinct provenance, its interiors present a buyer with a choice: embrace the décor as-is or commit to a costly renovation.

For Eric Trump, the house remains less about real-estate value than about his mother’s presence.

“My mom absolutely loved that house,” he said, repeating the sentiment during the months following her death. “She was so comfortable there.”
