Like the East Wing of the White House, Donald Trump's childhood home is unrecognizable after a gut renovation. While not quite bulldozed, the Tudor-style property in Jamaica Estates, Queens, where the president lived until he was four, was totally rebuilt after a burst water pipe led to mold all over the home, which has been vacant except for a colony of feral cats. After selling for $835,000 earlier this year, the home at 85-15 Wareham Place is now back on the market for $2,300,000.

Greenwich Village townhouse at the center of NBA gambling scandal listed for $22.5M

The Greenwich Village townhouse tied to a Mafia-backed gambling scandal involving NBA players has hit the market for $22.5 million, just weeks after the scheme came to light. As first reported by the New York Post, the swanky Georgian red-brick townhouse at 80 Washington Place was the site of rigged poker games run by the Gambino crime family starting in 2019, which allegedly used professional basketball stars to lure high rollers and netted millions of dollars in winnings. Before its stint as a gambling den, the property was rented by Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott, and has been on and off the market for more than a decade before finding an undisclosed buyer last year.

Talk show host Graham Norton’s ‘jewel box’ carriage house on a secret Murray Hill mews asks $5.6M

The tiny, close-ended Sniffen Court Mews in the midst of Manhattan's Murray Hill neighborhood is magical even without celebrity cachet. It's one of the city's smallest historic districts, one of those NYC places where you feel like you've completely stepped away from the city altogether. Irish comedian and talk show host Graham Norton's carriage house at 6 Sniffen Court is one of 10 former horse stables built on the mews during the Civil War. Asking $5,595,000, the home is described by Norton in a New York Times feature as a "jewel box of a carriage house." The 20-foot-wide home's interiors aren't the slightest bit old-fashioned: A fabulous renovation by Gachot Studio and a landscaped roof deck are a design-lover's dream within this private paradise.
