President Obama revealed last March that he would stay in Washington DC with his family for two years after the end of his term, to enable daughter Sasha to finish school.
He is the first president since Woodrow Wilson left office in 1921 to stay in the District of Columbia after leaving office.
Aptly the nine-bedroom, eight-and-a-half-bathroom home was built in the 1920s. The 8,200-square-foot property boasts an outside terrace and formal gardens, with a gated courtyard that can fit up to 10 vehicles.
The house is understood to be owned by Joe Lockhart, a former White House press secretary to President Bill Clinton, who is now the executive vice president of communications at the NFL.
The property was renovated in 2011 and removal vans have already been spotted outside it this week.
The pictures from estate agent Washington Fine Properties are from 2014 however, meaning it is likely to be different when the first family move in.
The President allowed pictures to be taken of the family’s private residence within the White House, revealing their love of art – and the location where US leader kept his Grammy awards.
