Millionaire Builds 99 Tiny Homes to Cut Homelessness in His Community–He Even Provides Jobs On Site for Them

The late Ivana Trump’s townhouse in New York has sat on the market for one full year with no takers. In September, it took a $4 million cut from its original asking price, down to $22.5 million.

The extravagant residence remains virtually untouched since her death in July 2022. In fact, very little has changed since Ivana Trump, former President Donald Trump’s first ex-wife, renovated the home in the 1990s.

“It’s very beautiful and very French, Versailles-flavored on the inside,” according to the home’s listing agent, J. Roger Erickson of Douglas Elliman. He was hired by Ivana Trump’s estate, which benefits her three children Ivanka, Donald Jr. and Eric, according to Erickson.

The six-story, almost 8,800-square-foot townhouse was built in 1879. It’s still decorated with the late Ivana Trump’s furnishings, clad in red carpets and red silk-covered walls, and dripping with gold accents and ornate crystal chandeliers.

In this case, the interiors at 10 E. 64th St. are still very much in the taste of its late owner.

Since her death from a fall on the home’s grand staircase, the residence remains a time capsule, with family photos still adorning walls and shelves. A large poster of one of Ivana’s magazine cover appearances hangs on a wall outside the home office. Her book “Raising Trump” sits on the coffee table in the living room.

Public records show Ivana bought the limestone townhome in 1992 for $2.5 million. According to Erickson, it was in disrepair when Ivana bought it, and she spent millions to gut renovate and infuse every floor with her distinctive style.
