1. It's big. Like, really big.
The property is four stories high, has 10 bedrooms, 14 bathrooms and 11 fireplaces. That's 24 Amazon echo devices before you include the kitchen, living rooms and any other rooms that you think would be in a 100-year-old mansion.

Just to get a sense for its sheer scale, a 27,000 footaquariumrecently opened in Fort Worth, Utah. The D.C. single family home could ostensibly hold a plethora of ocean life, including a handful of sharks.

2. It's good for entertaining.
While it was still the Textile Museum, it was considered an ideal weddingvenue. If Bezos was so inclined, the space would certainly let him throw all the 200-person dinner parties his heart desires.

3. The neighborhood is POTUS-approved.
When Bezos takes up residence in his new home, he'll have a pretty famousneighbor: President Barack Obama. A few otherpresidentswere fans of Kalorama too: Warren G. Harding, Herbert Hoover, Franklin D. Roosevelt, William Howard Taft and Woodrow Wilson all had homes there.

4. The house has a historic pedigree.
The property is in the National Register of Historic Places for a pretty cool reason.

In 1912, the Textile Museum's founder, George Hewitt Meyers, asked architect John Russell Pope to build him a mansion. In 1915, Meyers and his family moved in, and 10 years later, he opened the museum after he purchased the property next door to house his massive collection of textiles from all over the world.

Pope wasresponsiblefor a few other buildings you might have heard of, such as the National Gallery of Art and the Jefferson Memorial. That neighboring building was designed by Waddy Butler Wood, who was also behind well known D.C. landmarks such as Woodrow Wilson House and the headquarters of the U.S. Department of the Interior.

5. The first owner was a bit of a renaissance man.
George Hewitt Meyers had a variety of interests. He was an academic, had a passion for theenvironmentand worked for the U.S. Forest Service and was world traveler. When he died in 1957, he had amassed acollectionof nearly 5,000 textiles. Perhaps Bezos, with his interest in media and exploring new worlds with Blue Origin, found a kindred spirit in the home's original owner.
