Before Donald Trump dreamed of running for president — or before any of us knew about it, anyway — he used to weekend with his family at this opulent estate in Greenwich, CT.
Trump and his wife at the time, Ivana, arrived there with their three young children in the 1980s, around the time Ivana was redecorating the Plaza Hotel in Manhattan.
She also did a number on the Greenwich home.
“Decor-wise, it was all gold leaf — all of this was gold leaves all over the place,” Tamar Lurie of Coldwell Banker, the agent for the home’s current $54-million listing, told the Connecticut Post. “It was kind of dramatic.”
The 5.8-acre spread sits on a private peninsula in Long Island Sound. A three-story rotunda marks the introduction to the indoor splendor, which spans a whopping 19,773 square feet, with 8 bedrooms and 11.5 baths. It includes three fully equipped staff apartments — because what’s a weekend estate without good help?
Ivana was awarded the estate in the Trumps’ 1991 divorce and sold it several years later.
The current owner subdued the decor and built a tennis court and a 4,000-square-foot addition featuring guest suites, a lap pool and sauna.
