The sellers Hani and Cheryl Masri home was offered at $4.9 million dollars and sold for an undisclosed price. “This historic mansion was home to the Masir’s for 25 years. They entertained in style and hosted lavish parties that included such as guests as the elite of the Democratic Party, including President Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Terry McAuliffe, former chairmen of DNC along with the Rolling Stones, Quincy Jones and others,” comments Bell.
