Manhattan: 29 Howard Street, 4th Floor

Manhattan: 29 Howard Street, 4th Floor

This apartment located in New York's glitzy SoHo district comes complete with a wood-burning fireplace, over 2,000 square feet of open space, and an elevator that leads directly into the home. The master bedroom features a deep soaking tub and a steam shower. But the pièce de résistance is undeniably its views, a broker with The Corcoran Group (the real-estate group that currently holds the listing) Meris Blumstein, told The Times.

“The view is ridiculous," said Blumstein, noting that although it's only on the fourth floor, its views are unobstructed.

Manafort bought the property in 2012 for roughly $2.85 million by using the funds he secretly received for consulting Pro-Russian political groups in Ukraine, The Times reported.

It's listed as a rental for $14,200 per month.

This seven-bedroom, four-bath brownstone that dates back to the turn of the 19th century is valued at just over $4 million, according to Zillow.

Manafort bought the house in Brooklyn's affluent Carroll Gardens neighborhood in 2012 for a little less than $3 million.

According to Zillow's website, the four-story townhouse was designed with meticulous detail, including, "perfectly intact crown moldings and medallions, gold leafed carved window detail, five marble mantles, and original Lincrusta paper wall covering."

The house also boasts 12-foot ceilings, four wood-burning fireplaces, and spacious garden in the backyard.

Perhaps the crown jewel among Manafort's New York real-estate properties was a two-story 5,574-square-foot home in the Hamptons, which boasts a putting green, basketball court, tennis court, and an enormous pool with its own pool house.

This sprawling 10-bedroom, six-bath estate on Long Island had an estimated value of $7.4 million, according to Zillow.

In an interview with The Times, Paul Brennan, an executive manager for sales at the real-estate company Douglas Elliman, said Manafort's status as a convicted felon could affect the home's market value.

“If you want a high price on a tainted guy’s house, you are not going to get it,” Brennan said.

Manafort originally bought the luxury condominium located on the 43rd floor of Trump Tower in midtown Manhattan in 2006 for roughly $2.6 million. According to Zillow, it is worth about $3 million.

A lot has changed at Trump Tower since President Donald Trump was elected. Residents at the building have had to go through enhanced security measures, like having their bags checked every time they walk through the lobby.
