The massive property spans 30,000 square feet and sits on a half-acre parcel. Inside, there are 12 bedrooms and 22 bathrooms, and a $12 million restoration has preserved the home\u2019s Federal-style flourishes. Outside, meanwhile, there\u2019s a pool overlooking the city; you can also spot the Potomac River in the distance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In recent years, Halcyon House hasn\u2019t served as a house at all\u2014the seller, Sachiko Kuno, used the property as the headquarters for a nonprofit accelerator program supporting social-impact ventures. \u201cI\u2019m grateful to have been a steward of such a special property for 15 years, and for it to have done so much good for entrepreneurs,\u201d Kuno said in a statement to the WSJ.

A spokesperson for Harris said that he and his wife will continue to live primarily in Miami, but that he spends a lot of time in the nation\u2019s capital given his ownership of the Commanders. Mark and Hunter McFadden at Compass represented the seller in the sale, while the buyer was represented by Daniel Heider of TTR Sotheby\u2019s International Realty.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In the past few years, D.C. has become a city teeming with <a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/why-america-billionaire-class-snapping-180000286.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:billionaire property owners;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">billionaire property owners<\/a>, with Harris being just the latest to snap up a piece of prime real estate.
