Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner are moving to Washington, DC. The incoming president-elect’s daughter and her real estate investor spouse have chosen this 1923 Colonial home as their DC base while Trump’s father serves as president (Kushner was recently confirmed as an adviser to the bombastic billionaire). It’s unclear whether the couple purchased the lavish abode or are just renting, but it’s a lovely place, boasting 6,870 square feet with all the modern conveniences. By Brent Furdyk
The New White House
Ivanka Trump has said that she’ll be following her father out to Washington during his first term in office and these digs sure are a fine way for her and her family to do it. The roomy six-bedroom home is located a few short blocks from the house where the Obamas will moving after Trump’s inauguration. What it’s lacking in Manhattan glitz, it more than makes up for in DC charm. Located in the posh Kalorama neighbourhood, the home boasts five fireplaces, lovely crown molding throughout, and a number of Colonial-style windows.

Entering the home, one is greeted with high ceilings and loads of space, with this living room demonstrating how the home melds classic and modern details. The moldings around the windows and walls are downright divine, while the contemporary stainless-steel fireplace, lamps and large cozy furniture create a warm and inviting space.

One of the home’s seven bathrooms, this master ensuite provides more modernity, with a large soaker tub and spacious walk-in glass shower.

The eat-in kitchen is about as contemporary as they come, a sleek, bright area that features the best in high-end appliances. The glass railing opens up the room, revealing a peek into the basement.

Symmetrically sound, the dining room is a wonderful place for family dining or formal entertaining. The space is large and the mirrored wall makes it seem even more so, while dark floors and white walls offer a contrast that keeps the room clean and bright.
