Trump’s Childhood Queens Home Lists for $2.3 Million After Gut Renovation

The renovated Tudor is being marketed on its presidential provenance following an $835,000 distress sale.

Overview

  • Brown Harris Stevens listed the 1940 brick-and-stucco house at 85-15 Wareham Place on Nov. 10 for $2.3 million.
  • Owner Tommy Lin spent eight months on a full interior rebuild to address a burst pipe, mold and lack of utilities.
  • The renovation cost about $500,000, bringing his total outlay to more than $1.3 million after buying the property earlier this year.
  • The 2,500-square-foot home now features modern systems, five bedrooms, three full baths and two half baths, plus a finished basement and a two-car garage.
  • The property’s recent history includes a $2.9 million listing in 2019, a failed auction and prior Airbnb rentals by an investor who staged it with Trump memorabilia.
