The number of homes sold in the DMV for at least $10,000,000 doubled (22) in 2025, an byproduct of the “Trump-bump” for ultra high-end homes in the DC area.
The most expensive home sold in the DMV clocked in at $27,508,500 for a newly built home in the prestigious Langley Farms neighborhood of Mclean VA, $2M above 2024’s top sale.
5 Most Expensive Sales in Virginia
The most expensive home in Virginia, built in 2024, is also the most expensive home in the DMV at more than $27.5M for nearly 22,000 square feet sitting on 5.3 acres in Mclean, VA.
My personal favorite is a $20,000,000 historic (1713) estate in Warrenton with 1,482 acres, views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, and everything you’d expect from a classic English Manor.
5 Most Expensive Sales in Washington DC
DC’s most expensive sale was a 16,000+ square foot home, built in 2017, on over an acre, just east of the Naval Observatory and Embassy Row for $23,000,000 (not pictured).In keeping with the theme of privacy in the Nation’s Capital, just one of the five most expensive homes sold still has photos up for us to enjoy.
5 Most Expensive Sales in Maryland
Six Maryland homes sold for at least $10,000,000 in 2025, after none sold cracked $10M in 2023 and 2024.
At $17,500,000, a waterfront property in Annapolis, built in 2021 on 1.7 acres takes the prize for most expensive sale in Maryland (not pictured).
5 Most Expensive Sale in Arlington
Despite its high average and median costs, Arlington lacks the lot sizes, waterfrontage, and views that drive ultra high-end homes. Just four homes eclipsed the $4M mark and none sold for more than $4.5M.
Arlington’s most expensive home sold for $4,495,000, a custom built home in Country Club Hills on 1/3 acre (not pictured).
