Its reserve is probably somewhere around $17 million. It's situated right on the Potomac River, near where 495 crosses into MD on the west side of DC.

If I ever hit the lottery...we'll have our clubhouse gents!  We'll have to name it after one of the Marshal's old holdings...maybe Hamstead?  Chepstow?  Pembroke?

just toss an '...upon Potomac' on the end of whatever we name it for good measure and some British flare! :)

Too modern inside. :) But if I hit the lotto, we're in! I'm suprised to see it's only on a 1 acre lot, but I'm not surprised to see it's McLean. Some of the houses there are *wild*. My uncle looked at one that had a basketball net in the foyer.

Well, I passed it on to the Wife, see what she has to say about it.  She thought $500k was all they wanted, she was getting ready to call her buddy Sam the realtor.

I like the way she thinks!
