Distinguished address: The home in Kalorama puts the Obamas in one of the capital's most upscale neighborhoods

"President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama have leased a spectacular 8,200 square-foot home in one of DC's most elegant neighborhoods as their first post-White House dwelling.

"The $4.3 million home features plenty of room for the Obamas to stretch out – with separate dressing rooms and his and her bathrooms, entertaining space, and a tranquil garden.

"The home was built in 1928 and features nine bedrooms and eight and a half baths, according to Politico, which first reported the address.

"The Obama's area leasing the house from Joe Lockhart, who served as press secretary to Bill Clinton.

"The Obamas have made the unusual decision to stay in the capital because they do not want to interrupt their younger daughter Sasha’s time at high school.

"The 14-year-old is a student at Sidwell Friends School, where fees are $39,360 a year. Her elder sister will be in the middle of a year off when they leave the White House. She is then going to study at Harvard.

"Obama said earlier this year: 'Transferring someone in the middle of high school - tough.' " Videos
