Donald Trump sold his penthouse for a whooping twenty one million dollars. It is a luxurious penthouse at the Trump Park Avenue. Knowing that the property used to be listed at thirty five million dollars two years ago, we can say that the price for the property has lost a little. The price has dropped forty percent just to have the deal closed.
The whole building was bought in 2001 for a hundred and fifteen million dollars, converting the previous hotel into luxury condos where some space was kept for private use.
Michelle Griffith, the listing agent, confirmed that the unit was Donald's and it was never owned by someone else. But she also said that he never lived in it, he just rented it out. He simultaneously listed it as well, for rent and for sale.
The penthouse is a five bedroom 8 bathroom property. It is a 6,200 sq. feet home. The whole building dates back to 1929. It offers services that include a concierge, daily maid, laundry services, and a doorman.
Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka Trump, who is also an executive vice president of the Trump Organization, also lives in the property. She was also firm to say that the sale of the home is not related to her father's fundraising in connection to his presidential candidacy.
And who bought the semi-discounted but still expensive Donald Trump property? The reports say that the buyer was Ray Berry. He is the founder and chairman of Fresh Market. The NC based grocery chain has 200 stores.
Photos show that the luxury home offers clean white furniture, some accented details, and artistic pieces. The master suite has dual walk in closets and two bathrooms. The kitchen uses a rail road design with lots of counters and one center island. Whether or not the furniture is included on the sale, the next designer wouldn't find it so hard to decorate a home with such a clean palette and artsy design.
