    A former talk show host is once again trying to find a buyer for her Midtown East penthouse.

    Rosie O’Donnell, 62, first attempted to sell her 255 E. 49th St. triplex apartment for $8.3 million last spring amid a move to Malibu, only to take it off the market in December.

    Now, the abode is back up for sale — and this time with a reduced $7.5 million price tag, Robb Report first reported .

    O’Donnell paid an even $8 million for the unit in 2017, meaning that even if the unit sells for its new asking price, she’ll be losing $500,000 on the investment.

    The property is far from the only piece of real estate she has struggled to turn a profit on recently. After years of being unable to sell her mansion in Saddle River, New Jersey, O’Donnell finally sold it at a loss to buyers who planned to demolish it and turn it into affordable housing, The Post previously reported .

    This Manhattan home measures in at just under 3,400 square feet, and has a generous 1,620-square-foot roof deck.

    Rosie O’Donnell reacts to Jo Koy bombing the Golden Globes: ‘Not a great job by the host, huh?’

    There’s also a glass-enclosed dining room looking out over the East River, next to which is a wet bar.

    The island-equipped kitchen features a 70-bottle wine refrigerator. The primary bedroom has six custom closets, an ensuite bath with a walk-in steam shower for two, double marble vanities and a free-standing soaking tub.

    Highlights of the other bedrooms include one with a private balcony and one with a private bath.

    A Guggenheim-inspired staircase leads to the upper floor and the roof.

    The pet-friendly building, Sterling Plaza, has a live-in super and a 24-hour doorman.

    The listing is held by Caroline Bass of Corcoran.
