Renovations are under way to transform Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner’s new $24million mansion after the couple purchased the property last year.

The former first daughter and her husband purchased the six-bedroom, eight-and-a-half bathroom mansion located in Biscayne Bay, which sits in the exclusive Indian Creek estate, in April last year after the property was left sitting on the market for around six months.

The purchase came just seven months after the couple also bought a two-acre lot on Indian Creek, colloquially referred to as the Billionaire Bunker because of its celebrity residents, for $32.2 million.

Now, aerial images show the property being gutted and in a state of disarray as builders set to work on transforming the mansion.

Images show the property’s pool completely removed and metal poles in the ground as the waterfront home undergoes renovation. 

Last year images from inside the couple’s new residence showed it featuring 26ft high domed ceilings, a grand double staircase, open entertaining areas, a large family and screening room, a wood-paneled office, large gym, and a huge master bedroom with two full bathrooms.

The property also featured manicured gardens, reflecting pools, a resort-style pool, and a large dock. 

The mansion was sold to the couple by billionaire Alex Meruelo and his wife Liset Meruelo and previous owners include record producer Scott Storch, who owned the home from 2004 to 2008.

The purchase came months after the former White House advisors bought a vacant two-acre lot, which was once owned by the Spanish singer Julio Iglesias, for $32.2 million in Indian Creek Village.  

Some of Trump and Kushner’s neighbors include Tom Brady and wife Gisele Bundchen, Haitian billionaire Gilbert Bigio and former Sears CEO Edward Lampert.   

Brady and his wife reportedly paid more than $17 million for their mansion on Indian Creek Island and now plan to demolish the current house and build a new, eco-friendly home, Page Six reports.

Indian Creek Village, which is known as ‘the world’s most exclusive municipality’, has only 34 homes, around 42 residents and its own private 13-person police force.

Each home on Indian Creek is built around the perimeter of the island to ensure that all residents have a waterfront view, while the middle is occupied with the luxurious Indian Creek Country Club and a 18-hole golf course.

The village also has 24-hour marine patrol to keep an eye on the water surrounding the neighborhood. 

Last year Ivanka confirmed she and Jared would be departing Washington DC in a farewell message posted to Twitter after her father left office.

Donald Trump’s eldest daughter said she would be ‘leaving DC in awe of the compassion, grace and grit that exists across this nation’.

She also expressed support for incoming President Joe Biden, wishing him, his wife Jill, vice president Kamala Harris and her husband Doug ‘wisdom, courage and strength’. 

She wrote: ‘It has been the honor of a lifetime to serve our nation as an Advisor to the President.

‘I am so proud of what we have accomplished and excited for the future. I hope and believe America can move forward in a positive way, acknowledge our differences and find common ground.’ 

Last year reports emerged that Don Jr was eyeing up two properties in Admirals Cove, according to The Palm Beach Post. 

But Peter Moore, general manager of the property owners association, told the paper 30 residents have already expressed concern, adding: ‘About half have concerns about safety. The others have political concerns with what’s happened in the last couple of weeks.’
