Donald Trump’s first mansion is for sale for $54 million in Greenwich.
Set on 5.8 acres on a Greenwich peninsula, the $54 million, former first mansion of Donald Trump has been put up for sale.
The flamboyant real estate mogul and current presidential hopeful purchased the home in 1982 with then-wife Ivana for $4 million.
Originally built in 1939, the 19,773-square-foot Georgian Colonial-style main house and a guest house have eight bedrooms, 13 baths, a three-story rotunda foyer with double grand staircase, formal rooms overlooking views of the pool, grounds and the Long Island Sound.
It features amenities such as a home theater, a putting green, multiple terraces and patios, tennis courts and three fully-equipped staff apartments as well as six waterfront acres and private boat dock.
According to TopTenRealEstateDeals.com, which is currently featuring the property, the home originally incorporated many of the same materials used in the remodeling of the Plaza Hotel in the early 1980s, of which Ivana was involved, creating a residence dripping in gold leaf, elegant chandeliers and crown moldings.
Following the Trumps divorce in 1991, Ivana won the mansion in the property settlement and sold the home for $15 million in 1998.
The mansion’s new owners immediately began a renovation to tone it down to more livable neutrals and added tennis courts as well as a 4,000-square-foot addition, which includes guest suites, a lap pool and a sauna.
The listing agent is Tamar Lurie of Coldwell Banker in Greenwich.
