Ivana Trump’s business acumen may revolve around mostly fashion and jewelry, but that doesn’t mean she didn’t learn a thing or two about the real estate world from her entrepreneurial ex-husband, Donald Trump.
The former fashion model, socialite and mogul in her own right has listed a palatial mansion-estate in Palm Beach, FL. Following her divorce from Donald in the early 1990’s, Trump paid $4.4 million for the oceanfront property, which is found just four blocks away from Mar-a-Lago, the former Trump family compound that sold in 2008 for $100 million. She now looks for a return on her own investment after listing the Mediterranean spread for $18.9 million.
Located along the aptly named Jungle Road, Trump’s landmark estate was built in 1926 and has nine bedrooms, 13 bathrooms and more than 14,400 square feet of living space. Exuding a Moroccan vibe, its interiors feature stenciled beamed ceilings, tile and wood flooring, detailed fireplaces, and an overall jewel tone color scheme that complements the home’s tropical surroundings.
Showcasing a mix of luxury design and modern convenience that few can afford, the chef’s kitchen has a tiled center island and restaurant-quality equipment, and the master suite appears as distinctive as any suite in a Trump Tower penthouse.
Outside, a covered loggia extends over a long dining room space, which overlooks a central atrium-style patio and plunge pool; while an underground tunnel leads away from the home to a secluded beach.
After her split from The Donald, Ivana Trump, 64, reinvented herself as a self-help author and fashionista. In recent years she has dabbled in reality television, appearing on England’s “Celebrity Big Brother,” and launched her own collection of wines through Legends Wines.
Palm Beach broker Lawrence Moens of Lawrence A. Moens Associates has the listing.
