Washington, DC: After months of waiting for renovations, Vice President Kamala Harris moved into her official home.
The Democrat and husband Doug Emhoff moved to Number One Observatory Circle Tuesday night, as per media reports.
Harris, 56, is now the eighth vice president to live in the 9,150-square-foot mansion on the observatory’s grounds.
The Queen Anne-style six-bedroom house sits on 12 acres of the 72-acre grounds of the still-operational US Naval Observatory, where scientists observe the sun, moon, planets, and stars, according to the White House website. It was first named as the official residence of the vice president in 1974.
With her lodgings paid for by the government for the next four years, Harris is now selling her Washington high-rise residence for $1.995 million.
In February, she reportedly sold her San Francisco condo for $799,000.
Harris and Emhoff have been living in the Blair House, across the street from the White House, since Inauguration Day.
