The American Cancer Society has lowered the price of the property that was donated to the organization by former Washington Commanders owners Dan and Tanya Snyder earlier this year. The house, located at 11900 River Rd. in Potomac, is now available for $29.9 million– a $5 million price drop from the previous $34.9 million price, and almost $20 million less than the $49 million it was initially listed for in February 2023.
The property has been listed by Cara Pearlman of COMPASS and has been on the market for a total of 140 days since she initially listed it following the donation back in May 2024. Even with the price drop, it remains the highest priced home currently available for sale in Montgomery County.
The property was initially listed at $49 million when the Snyders were attempting to sell, which would have been a DMV record if it sold for the asking price. Dan and Tanya Snyder’s $48 million purchase of River View (7979 E. Boulevard Drive in Alexandria, VA)- a 16,000 square foot home with an additional carriage home, holds the record for the most expensive home sale in DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia) history.
According to BizJournals, “the record price for a home in Potomac is $20 million — what Wizards and Capitals owner Ted Leonsis and his wife, Lynn, paid for the Marwood estate in 2011. That 1926 mansion is the former home of President John F. Kennedy’s family.”
