They say that you can't put a price on history, but apparently you can offer it for a discount. Such is the case in Northern Virginia, where the onetime family vacation home of John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy has seen a sizable price adjustment.
Set among the rolling hills of Middleburg, VA, the president and his wife in 1963 custom-designed this property which they named Wexford after the county in Ireland, as a vacation retreat for them and their children, Caroline and John Jr.
In October, the storied estate came to market for the first time in 22 years, listing for $11 million. However, Curbed reports that the Fauquier County home recently received a $3 million price cut and now lists for slightly under $8 million.
While modest in size, the home spans just 5,050 square feet, the property offers an abundance of scenery with 166 acres of mature trees, ponds and mountain views. The four-bedroom, five-bathroom house retains much of its 50-year-old charm and features original parquet floors, his and her dressing rooms, various built-ins and multiple stone fireplaces.
Outside, there is a swimming pool, a tennis court and the quintessential President of the United States amenity...an underground bunker for Secret Service personnel.
Jackie Kennedy sold the property a year after her husband was assassinated in Dallas. The home was later leased by Ronald Reagan and his wife, Nancy, during his presidential election campaign in 1980.
