The American Man$ion website features nearly 800 luxurious homes; 71 of those homes are located in Washington, DC and its exclusive suburbs. As a 21-year resident of metro Washington, DC, I wanted to share my Top-10 personal favorites in the area. And unlike my Top-10 list from May where the picks were ordered randomly, these picks are in order from 10 to 1 (1 of course being my favorite). Please enjoy! (P.S. The cover mansion above is not included in the list!)
