Vice President J.D. Vance has leased a historic Virginia home for his family, providing them with a private retreat away from the public eye in Washington, D.C.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Vice President J.D. Vance has secured a lease on a portion of a historic farm in Virginia, which will serve as an additional residence for his family, according to a report by CNN.
The property is primarily intended for Vance’s wife and their four children, offering them a respite from the public scrutiny that accompanies their life in Washington. While Vance plans to spend time at the Virginia home, the family’s official residence will remain the vice president’s home at the Naval Observatory in D.C.
Chris Ashby, Vance’s personal attorney, confirmed that the vice president will pay market rent for the leased property.
“The rent will be at fair market value, determined with reference to the rent for comparable properties in the area,” Ashby stated.
The leased residence is situated within Wolver Hill Farm, an expansive estate that spans nearly 500 acres on the outskirts of Middleburg, Virginia. This affluent town is located just over an hour’s drive from the nation’s capital.
The estate is owned by a firm led by Charles Kuhn, who is the founder of a moving company that has facilitated relocations for several U.S. presidents, including Donald Trump. The company has also been a longstanding contractor for the U.S. government.
This move reflects Vance’s commitment to providing his family with a comfortable and private living environment, away from the demands of public life.
