Washington D.C. Estate Reduced 40%!
On 3.5+ acres in elegant Georgetown, this grand manse is exquisite in every respect and was clearly designed for grand soirées back in the early 1800's. Historically interesting, it was built by the first surveyor of Washington, D.C. Extremely formal in its traditional floor plan and manicured landscape, the home has been in the same family for 87 years.

Built in the Federal style with brick exterior, the capacity to hold large groups is amazing and quite useful to those who hold benefit galas and do other large scale entertaining. Plus there is parking for 100 cars! There are 9 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms and 5 half baths, 8 fireplaces and an improved basement. The rooms are huge and the windows are those beautiful large windows so tall and low to the floor that you can actually step out through them with no effort. Can you imagine a dining room that seats 40! What about a ballroom that seats 90! There is also a guest house and a studio-annex, so you see what we mean about huge! Exceptional views include the Washington Monument and Rock Creek Park.

One could find no more perfect a home for a Washington society hostess or for a diplomat. We understand it went under contract on May 18th and was due to close in July, but you know how it could pop right back on the market as so many do. The property is listed at half the price of the original listing. Unlikely you will ever see this much Georgetown land again in one parcel! You might want to get yourself on the Fall Through list. Historic Evermay home now $29.5m.
