Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, have purchased a $23 million home near Observatory Circle in Washington, D.C., one of the city's most expensive real estate transactions. The home, built in collaboration with architect Robert Gurney, showcases contemporary designs while referencing traditional architecture. The acquisition follows Zuckerberg's increasing political engagement, including a visit to the White House to lobby on a federal antitrust lawsuit against Meta. The buyer was initially represented as an LLC named Redbrick Corner, highlighting Zuckerberg's discreet approach to the purchase.
"With its prominent chimneys and gabled slate roofs, the house takes cues from some of the more traditional neighboring mansions even as it stands apart: Gurney divided the residence into three volumes connected by glass links, or passageways."
"Zuckerberg's 'Trump pivot' has been widely reported—he attended the President's inauguration and has met with him at Mar-a-Lago—and his new digs in DC should help facilitate that access."
