An Alexandria home that was listed for $60 million sold for $48 million in a cash transaction in late October. The home set a new record in the DC metro area for the most expensive home sold.
A former Lockheed Martin executive sold the massive property, called River View Estate, on East Boulevard Drive.
River View Estate sits on 16+ acres along the Potomac River. Heather Corey of TTR Sotheby’s International Realty listed the property.
However, Washington Business Journals has a slideshow of the home here. The Wall Street Journal reported that the home, which was recently built, is 16,000 square feet. It has 7 bedrooms, 8 full and 7 half baths, and features like a gym with river views, a spa, steam room, home theater and a variety of smart home features. (You can see photos of the home here.)
