On the Market: Ever Wanted to Build Your Own Palace in NoVA?

If you choose to build, your house would be down the road from Dan Snyder's, which happens to be the most expensive home ever sold in Northern Virginia.

There’s great plans for RiverGate, a new property coming between Old Town Alexandria and historic Mount Vernon. And for NoVA residents, its creation is a chance to own 10 acres designed and slated to be built by luxury firms. 

Extensive manicured grounds and a private spot along the Potomac River complete the magnificent French-provincial style residence, and it’s set to house a sport court, yoga pavilion, conservatory, and pool, to name a few things (and yes, that’s only a small selection of the many amenities).

This seven-bedroom, 12-bath home is on the market for $45 million in Alexandria at 7983 East Boulevard Dr. The 25,500 square feet of space was once owned by George Washington as part of River Farm, the northernmost of the five farms that comprised his sprawling 18th-century estate, and the most profitable in 1760 thanks to its fishery operations.

A rendering of the outside of the home (here from the back) shows its sprawling nature, which includes soaring ceilings and wall-to-wall windows.

A floor plan for one of the estate’s main levels shows a library, bar, butler’s pantry, three-car garage, covered porch, and more.

The waterfront estate utilizes its pastoral tree-lined property as it gently slopes down to the Potomac River. Follow the path down to the water to a private dock and beach, where you can gaze across at a wooded Maryland shore.
