Debra Lee, the chief executive officer of Black Entertainment Television, has listed her Massachusetts Avenue Heights home for $13.5 million.

The 11,000 square-foot home was designed by Marshall Moya Design, a local architecture firm that is involved with the design of the new DC United stadium and the new Wizards practice facility.

The great room

The enormous home has a curved facade that makes it stand out among the more traditional homes of Massachusetts Avenue Heights. The centerpiece is a 20-foot tall great room, but the rest of the house also lives up to its size. The master suite, for example, has a wall of windows that looks out on Rock Creek Park, a fireplace, and an adjoining dressing room.
