- They say that you can't put a price on history, but apparently you can offer it for a discount. Such is the case in Northern Virginia, where the onetime family vacation home of John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy has seen a sizable price adjustment.
Set among the rolling hills of Middleburg, VA, the president and his wife in 1963 custom-designed this property which they named Wexford after the county in Ireland, as a vacation retreat for them and their children, Caroline and John Jr.
In October, the storied estate came to market for the first time in 22 years, listing for $11 million. However, Curbed reports that the Fauquier County home recently received a $3 million price cut and now lists for slightly under $8 million.
While modest in size, the home spans just 5,050 square feet, the property offers an abundance of scenery with 166 acres of mature trees, ponds and mountain views. The four-bedroom, five-bathroom house retains much of its 50-year-old charm and features original parquet floors, his and her dressing rooms, various built-ins and multiple stone fireplaces.
Outside, there is a swimming pool, a tennis court and the quintessential President of the United States amenity...an underground bunker for Secret Service personnel.
Jackie Kennedy sold the property a year after her husband was assassinated in Dallas. The home was later leased by Ronald Reagan and his wife, Nancy, during his presidential election campaign in 1980.

What a beautiful, modest home!
Very nice video and music.
Kathy Lingen Thank you for the feedback.
A BEAUTIFUL PLACE INSIDE AND OUT. STUNNING COUNTRYSIDE, A SHAME THEY DID NOT GET TO TRULY ENJOY SUCH PEACE AND BEAUTY.
Does anyone know how much this home sold for?
Not exactly but it must have been a pretty penny
I saw somewhere that they spent the weekend before the trip to Texas at the house.
Thay did.
Very interesting, thanks for sharing.

Like the grounds but not that keen on the house nor the way it's furnished.

Word
Robert Wielgus I know, my youngest daughter is 19 and she says old things and antiques are weird and I guess it is to her. lol
I can deal with antiques, to me this house just looked cheap even though I KNOW it wasn't. I was being harsh, it wasn't so bad, just outdated.
Just to give you an idea of how outdated the decor is, I had that bedspread at 1:57 TWENTY FIVE YEARS AGO!!!!! Bleach,
