(Updated at 11:30 a.m.) Though Arlington may boast some dazzling domiciles, none of the top 10 most expensive homes sold in the D.C. area last year are located there.
That’s according to a newly released report from real estate listing service MRIS.
MRIS defines the “D.C. area” as including the District, Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax City, Fairfax County, Falls Church and Montgomery and Prince George’s counties in Maryland.
The priciest home sold between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31 last year was a $10.4 million mansion in Northwest D.C., according to the report. The second most expensive home sold for $9.1 million and is also located in Northwest D.C.
Noticing a pattern? Only three homes in the list were located outside of the District: A $7.1 million house in McLean, a $6.5 million home in Bethesda and a $5.4 million residence in Potomac, Md.
