The White House is the most famous home in America.

Located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington DC, the White House is the official workplace and residence of the President of the United States, and every US leader since John Adams has called it his home.

The massive building contains three distinct sections - the West Wing, the East Wing, and the Executive Residence in the middle. It contains six levels, 132 rooms, 35 bathrooms, 412 doors, and 28 fireplaces. And it would take a whopping 570 gallons of paint to cover its outside surface.
