Basil Road, Estate of the Day
Four years ago, Washington Life Magazine reported that 1015 Basil Road in McLean, Virginia sold for $9,895,000, the highest price ever for a non-waterfront property in the area at the time. (Washington Fine Properties has the sale listed at $8,727,327).
Now the 16,000 square-foot four-bedroom residence is back on the market for a far greater price, $17,777,777. The Eaglecrest compound is located on three and a half acres which are security fenced and gated. The property includes a swimming pool, gardens and an indoor tennis court as well as a butler house with a separate residence. The home, which was built in 1999 includes a wine cellar and home theater, exercise room, double-islanded gourmet kitchen, music room, children's playroom and a large wood-paneled library.

There are about ten homes in the DC area between $10 and $20 mil that are vastly superior to this tacky "Powerball" winner looking thing......Good luck getting $5 mil for it in this market.

Wow, looks like they need a good decorator. Cheap, underscaled furniture. Useless swags on the windows. Bad light fixtures. Looks like a gut job is in the houses future.
