Jeffrey Epstein’s $56M mansion could be on the market soon

Jeffrey Epstein’s lavish $56 million Upper East Side mansion could be put up for sale soon. The pedophile’s seven-story manse at 9 E. 71st St. filled with creepy decor — including a stuffed black poodle, a painting of Bill Clinton in drag and a life-size female doll hanging from a chandelier — is being packed up.

Before Epstein’s death in August, the house infamously bore the black markings “JE” by its front doors. But those letters are gone, sources said. A real estate insider added, “The Epstein estate has appointed a caretaker to the UES property to ostensibly rid it of every vestige of Jeffrey Epstein … Contractors are breaking down all of his possessions — those that have not been seized by authorities as evidence — such as the Clinton painting, the furnishings from Epstein’s bedroom, his living areas and the rooms below where he is alleged to have assaulted girls.”

The source added, “You won’t see dumpsters outside the mansion filled with Epstein’s stuff. It will be broken down inside the property and discreetly removed in the dead of night, almost as if he’d never been there. The property will be completely wiped of his existence. That is the only way the mansion will retain any value for sale.”

Asked about the plans for the property, brother Mark Epstein was reticent to answer, responding: “Which one?” when contacted Friday.

Asked how he was doing, he told us: “I’m doing great, better than great, actually.” He didn’t comment further.

With a slew of civil suits upcoming against Epstein’s estate, one legal expert told us: “I don’t think it is in anyone’s interest to let the house sit empty and wither.”

Eve Rachel Markewich, a trust and estates lawyer, added: “If the will is not being contested, then the executor can sell it and the proceeds will be used to pay administration expenses, creditors and the beneficiaries under the will. I would think that everything would go into the trust and then the trustee would decide what to do with it.”

In Epstein’s will, he said his net worth was over $577 million.
