It’s the ultimate New York bachelor pad.

Here’s a never-before-seen look inside Derek Jeter’s swinging 88th-floor penthouse atop Trump World Tower at UN Plaza on the East Side.

The 5,425-square-foot captain’s quarters boasts 360-degree views of Manhattan, four bedrooms, 5 1/2 baths, an eat-in kitchen and a fireplace.

Derek Jeter’s entryway features a diamond-shaped wood floor inlay with his No. 2. A living-room slate fireplace is opposite cozy seating for two. And, ladies, that door leads to the master suite.

Nail-studded club chairs, a poker table, a telescope and a black piano share the southeast corner, with views of the East River and the UN building.
STEP UP TO THE PLATE: There’s seating for the Yankees’ starting lineup — plus a few bench warmers — at the dining table with 14 plush chairs, situated before a dramatic view from inside Trump World Tower at 845 UN Plaza on East 48th Street.
A 77-foot wall of windows along the southern exposure -- with a knockout view of the Empire State Building -- is the backdrop for Jeter's game area, which includes a pool table.

The ladies’ man’s lair has ultra-suede wallpaper covering the 16-foot-high walls. There’s a pool table, a poker table that seats eight, a dining-room table with room for 14, and even an old-school bar tabletop Pac-Man game.

The apartment has just gone back on the market for a discounted $17.95 million, down from the $20 million price of two years ago.

Jeter had snagged the apartment for $12.72 million in 2001, buying it directly from Donald Trump.

The shortstop is looking for something smaller after splitting with gal pal Minka Kelly.

And, of course, after the recent completion of his 30,000-square-foot, seven-bedroom, nine-bath mansion on the waterfront in Tampa, Fla., near the Yankees’ spring-training center, a project that took two years to complete.

“He is downsizing to a Manhattan pied-à-terre apartment,” his broker, Carrie Chiang, of the Corcoran Group, told The Post.
