Brett Beyer sells luxury D.C. estate for $32 million

Banks and architect David Jones.

If the house sells for nearly that high a price, it will set a record for the city, surpassing the sale of a circa 1810 mansion that sold for $24.5 million in 2007.

The limestone-clad mansion has a cobblestone street with a central fountain. Completed in April 2022, the limestone-clad mansion with a mansard roof is inspired by France's Chateau du Grand-Lucé hotel. It features five bedrooms and nine bathrooms spread across 16,250 square feet designed by Thomas Physant.

The gates lead to a spacious cobblestone street enhanced by a marble fountain and three-car garages on either side. Arched double doors under''porch leads to the main level of the multi-level home where we are greeted by a grand rotunda with Nero Marquina marble flooring imported from Italy and a curved floating staircase.

The grand entrance hall is furnished with Nero Marquina marble flooring. Then the living room with fireplace has a dedicated temperature-controlled wine storage cabinet, built-in bar and French doors leading to the terrace, while the formal dining room has another fireplace and a custom-made wood and glass table that seats 14.

The gourmet kitchen features a breakfast island, high-end Miele, Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, and the adjoining breakfast area connects to the family room with glazed walls.
