A Washington, D.C. townhome associated with the disgraced FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) has been listed on the market for roughly $3.28 million. The luxurious 4,100-square-foot property was purchased by Bankman-Fried’s brother’s nonprofit, Guarding Against Pandemics, for the same price.
The property is a four-bedroom Victorian brownstone building crafted in 2017 with five bathrooms, four gas fireplaces, and all bedrooms en suite. Photos taken by Pearson Smith Realty show that the home is decorated with a modern style and offers expansive views of the city.
According to the New York Post reporter Mary K. Jacob, two parties were held at the Washington home just before FTX collapsed, specifically for bureaucrat donors. Realtor.com reported that the property was likely used „to serve as a D.C. base for the FTX crew to wine and dine the political elite.“
In addition to the Washington townhome, SBF and his inner circle of deputies reportedly purchased a great deal of real estate, most of which was located in the Bahamas. For instance, Bitcoin.com News reported on the so-called „effective altruist“ SBF’s $40 million penthouse, which was listed for sale three days after FTX’s collapse.
Given the controversies and bankruptcies surrounding FTX and SBF, the Washington townhome is being listed at the same price it was purchased for in April 2022. It remains to be seen if the property will be sold at the current asking price, given the high-profile scandal and bankruptcy associated with its owner.
