Dominique Strauss-Kahn lists Georgetown home

By Amy Rose Dobson, Curbed DC

When the former head of the International Monetary Fund lists his house for significantly more than he and his wife paid for it a few years ago, surely that is a sign the housing market is taking a turn for the better. Dominique Strauss-Kahn's three-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bathroom Georgetown house has a swimming pool, tennis courts and now an illustrious history to go with it.

The house was built in 1900 and is 7,200 square feet. It is in Strauss-Kahn's wife's name (Anne Sinclair), and they have listed their house at 2613 Dumbarton Street for $5.2 million, which is way more than they paid for it in 2007 ($4 million, if you're keeping track).
