Donald Trump Jr. grew up inside the glitzy Trump Tower penthouse. When he married Vanessa Hayden in 2005 at the fabulous Mar-a-Lago, just ten months after “Papa” Trump married Melania, they first lived in Trump Place, but then called their apartment on the Upper East Side at The Sovereign, home. He purchased the exclusive adjacent apartments in a posh district of Manhattan for $2.71 million.
To make room for their five children, they bought a third adjacent unit for $1.5 million, gradually expanded their home. The Sovereign is a unique and elegant co-op apartment building that gives the family fantastic views of Long Island from their expansive 6,000-square-feet, 12th-floor digs. It’s uncertain who will be living there in the future. The couple announced their divorce in March of 2018.
Le De Château Des Palmiers, St. Martin, West Indies – $15 Million
Built into Plum Bay’s shimmering, sprawling sandy beach, Le de Château des Palmiers is one of St. Martin’s most enviable Caribbean island estates. The 4.8-acre, 11-room villa and guest house are safely enclosed within an 8-foot-high walled-off section of the tiny half-French island. Once inside, you’ll be entranced by its shimmering marble, grand entrance. Walk outside to take in its immense pool and the gorgeous Caribbean Sea. Trump snagged this Island gem from a fellow businessman in 2013 for an undisclosed price. (It was listed for $19.7 million). In 2017 he listed it for $28 million with Sotheby’s International who declared on Instagram, in classic Trumpism style, “It’s huuuuuge!” It wasn’t selling. To entice he lowered it to $16.9 million a few months later.
Interest spiked as he was elected president by then (no conflict of interest here) but ultimately waned due to the prospect of the intense public scrutiny that would bombard a high-profile purchase. Meanwhile, he’s been raking in profits. With rates of up to $20,000 per night, rental income brought up to $1 million for the Trump Organization in 2017. Interested in visiting St. Moritz? Yes, you can! It’s publicly available on Airbnb. It’s one of the greatest mansions in the world, Trump said.
Marla Maples And Tiffany Trump’s Calabasas Custom Home
Tiffany Trump was only five when her mom moved them to the West Coast. Marla Maples and Donald’s union was Trump’s second failed marriage which ended abruptly as he moved on to model Melania Knauss. After the divorce, Marla decided to relocate from the busy bustling East Coast to quiet Calabasas in Southern California where Tiffany could have a “normal” childhood. The two spent Tiffany’s childhood years in their 5-bedroom, 6-bath, 5,700-square-foot home. Modest compared with most of Trump’s digs, the beautiful property situated atop the exclusive Mountain View Estates opens up to breathtaking sweeping views. It’s a fairly large property with a basketball court and a spectacular swimming pool that includes a swim-up bar with built-in bar stools. Not just that, but it also has an amazing water slide.
The million-dollar home was a two-million-dollar home by the time Marla sold it in order that she could be near Tiffany on the East Coast. Tiffany, who is an aspiring singer, is now attending law school at Georgetown University after having graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 2016.
Eric Trump’s Westchester And Trump Parc East Homes
Eric Trump created a penthouse suite by combining three apartment units at the top of Trump Parc East. The elegant home cost him just over two million dollars in total. However, he snagged the third unit of the flat from building developer, Donald Trump, for $350,000—half its listed price! (Thanks, dad). Towering over Central Park in the heart of Manhattan, views are sweeping and spectacular. Its 1904 architecture is as graceful as it is distinguished. Originally constructed as a hotel and performance center, Trump purchased the building in the 1980s and turned the flagging property into profitable condominiums. Inside the classy condos, large windows, vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and wood burning fireplaces add to the luxuriating sense of having escaped the city.
On weekends the family escapes the city in earnest. Eric, his wife Lara, and young son Luke head out to their lovely mansion in Briarcliff Manor, an exclusive village in Westchester County. Located nearby Eric’s favorite childhood home, and where he proposed to Lara, the Seven Springs estate, is the place they call home. Lara has said that it's their favorite place to be, and they head out to their mansion sanctuary every chance they get. She loves to go riding and hopes to get a horse of her own. It’s also in close proximity to Trump National Golf Club in Briarcliff Manor making it convenient for Eric Trump, as executive vice president of the Trump Organization, to keep an eye on the property. Eric also stops by his vineyard when he has time. Recently it won a Sweepstakes award from the 2019 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition for Trump Winery’s 2014 sparkling Monticello Blanc de Blanc. It’s doing well with Eric at the helm.
The Greenwich, CT Mansion
This gorgeous colonial mansion built in 1939 was acquired by Trump and his first wife Ivana for $4 million in the 1980s. Today it’s on the market for $45 million. When Ivana sold it in 1998, six years after their divorce, the new owners, financier Robert Steinberg and his wife Suzanne, paid $15 million for the palatial residence. Trump sure has a knack for scoring a deal on real estate! Needless to say, the new owners had to scale down the opulence, removing the gold-leafing and making it a more casual and livable abode.
The property is extravagant. It’s nearly 20,000-square-feet and built on six acres of manicured green into the end of the Long Island Sound peninsula. Docks dot the waterfront periphery of the property. It’s got an indoor pool, an outdoor pool, mini golf putting greens, a tennis court and a darling guest house. Set in the town of Greenwich, the 8-bedroom, 13-bath home is just 45 minutes from Manhattan. The best part? You can make it yours for $45 million.
