Billionaire Kevin Plank’s $29.5M Listing Is DC’s Most Expensive

Published: March 5, 2018 | By: American Luxury Staff

Presently presiding as most expensive residential real-estate listing in Washington D.C. is this Federal Style home in Georgetown. The house is on the market for $29.5 million. But deep into eight figures buys you a whole lot of history, and a series of high-end renovations, to augment its brick-and-black shutter aesthetic and 12,000 square feet of living space. And, the $29.5 million price tag also nets the buyer many of the furnishings presently in the home.

The house is presently owned by Under Armour CEO Kevin Plank and his wife. The couple purchased the property about five years ago, for a little less than $8 million. But previous owners include brighter stars in the D.C. firmament, including former ambassador David K.E. Bruce, who, along with his wife, added a grand ballroom to accommodate social engagements held at the house in the latter third of the last century.

More recent renovations to the home include a stunning marble staircase, which adds significant gravitas to the inter-floor transition—over ten tons of gravitas, actually. Other unique spaces include a small wet bar modeled after a bar in the Ritz in Paris, and the home’s seven bedrooms, each of which pays homage to a particularly influential or noteworthy president.

The property exterior extends to about .3 acre, with a lap pool, gym, and greenhouse filling out the grounds.

The images below (except the first) are pre-renovation but give a sense of the scale and layout of the beautiful home.
