An unknown buyer has just picked up a piece of history: the onetime Washington, DC home of President John F. Kennedy.
Listed for $4,675,000 back in February, the three-bedroom Georgetown house where Kennedy lived for three years just sold for $42 million, Mansion Global reports.
Before he was president, Kennedy lived in the house from 1949 to 1951 while serving in the House of Representatives for Massachusetts' 11th congressional district. According to The Washingtonian, he shared the home with his sister, Eunice.
The Federal-style brick house was built around 1800 and was recently renovated by architect Richard Foster and builder Tom Glass, according to the listing. It comes with an attached garage and a private rooftop terrace with views of the Washington Monument. It sits in the historic neighborhood of Georgetown, where the median listing price today is nearly $1.4 million.
Christie-Anne Weiss and Christopher Ritzert of TTR Sotheby's international Realty held the listing.
