The Georgetown home where Jacqueline Kennedy moved with her children after leaving the White House in 1963 is now for sale. The former First Lady packed up and left 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue just two weeks after John F. Kennedy’s assassination, and temporarily relocated to this eight-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom mansion nearby. The Washington, D.C., home is now on the market for $10 million.
Jackie Kennedy and her children, Caroline and John Jr., stayed at the home, which belonged to W. Averell Harriman and Pamela Churchill Harriman, for just a few months, before eventually moving to another home in the area, and then shortly thereafter relocating to New York City .
