The New McMansions of Palisades
It may be hard to believe, but new homes (big new homes, actually) are selling in certain parts of DC. DCmud is reporting that 46 “embassy-sized” properties are currently being built in Palisades and twenty-two are already under contract.
The homes are part of the Phillips Park development, and the lots range in size from 9,000 to 17,000 square feet. Most are priced around $2 million and will deliver during the next year.
From DCmud:
“The custom-built homes will measure in at 4,500 to 9,000 square feet and sport designs from a variety of architectural firms, including Barnes Vanze, David Jones, Muse and Neumann Lewis Buchanan.”
The site was formerly home to a 26-room, 17,000 square-foot mansion owned by Duncan and Marjorie Phillips, the couple behind the Phillips Collection art museum in Dupont Circle.
