Two years following the passing of Ivana Trump, her ornate East 64th Street townhouse remains for sale — and it has seen yet another price cut, according to StreetEasy records.
Originally listed for $26.5 million in November 2022, just four months after her death, the price was slashed to $22.5 million last year.
Now, StreetEasy shows, the asking price has dropped once more to $19.5 million — $7 million less than the initial listing. Adam Modlin of the eponymous Modlin Group holds the listing. He didn’t respond to a message seeking comment by press time.

The opulence of the home — specifically, Trump’s personal flair — is immediately evident upon entry.

The late Trump, who passed away on July 14, 2022 at age 73, was found at the bottom of the grand staircase in this home. The 8,725-square-foot spread was long a sanctuary.
“My mom absolutely loved that house,” her son, Eric Trump, previously told the Wall Street Journal.

Trump, the Czech-American businesswoman and socialite, purchased the historic limestone townhouse for $2.5 million in 1992 after her divorce from the former president.
That’s around $5.4 million in today’s money.
Over the decades, she transformed the 17-room, 20-foot-wide property — with five bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms — into a maximalist haven.
Elsewhere, there are pink mirrored baths and a Versailles-inspired dining room.
Ivana famously described one living room in her 2017 book “Raising Trump” as “how Louis XVI would have lived if he had had money.”
