The house at 524 Innsbruck Avenue, built in 2009 on five gated acres, was reimagined in a collaboration with designer Betsy DeLisi of BOWA, with grounds by Sisson Landscapes. The sale put Daniel Heider of TTR Sotheby’s International Realty at the listing side of the metro area’s highest-priced reported closing of the week, and the five sales together came to $33.07 million.
All five closings were in Virginia, and McLean accounted for three of them: a newly completed Cherry Hill Custom Homes house in Clearview Manor, a gated Monarch Homes residence in Elmwood Estates and a 2025 custom build in Salona Village. The other two sit farther out, at the Great Falls compound and at Fidelio, a 61-acre property in The Plains with frontage on the Little River.

The estate at 524 Innsbruck Avenue occupies five gated acres in the Innsbruck enclave in Great Falls and closed for $12 million on September 14, 2026.

Listing materials identify Galileo as the builder of the 2009 residence and Betsy DeLisi of BOWA as the designer behind its rebuilding.
Restored detailing, stonework, shingle siding and a slate roof face the approach, and arched double doors with glass inlays open to an entertaining level anchored by a chef’s kitchen built around a bespoke La Cornue range and hood made over more than a year.

The dining room is wrapped in grasscloth and furnished by master cabinetmaker Keith Fritz, next to a cerused oak library. The main-level primary wing has double dressing rooms and a herringbone travertine bath; four bedroom suites with marble baths surround a sitting area upstairs.
Downstairs are a sound-isolated theater with 4K projection, a golf simulator, a temperature-controlled wine cellar, a billiards room and a wellness suite with a fitness studio and newly installed hot and cold plunge. Geothermal systems, a whole-house generator serving the residence and the pool house, Savant automation and rebuilt septic infrastructure were part of the work. Outdoors, mature trees frame lawns, a pool, a cabana with a full outdoor kitchen, a koi pond and a rebuilt water wheel. The property previously changed hands for $7,100,000 in 2023.
