HOUSE OF THE WEEK | The three-bedroom, four-bathroom, 4,530-square-foot house is offered at $2.8 million.

The next owner, Barbara Tanhamd, sold the house in 1990 to John H. Makin and Gwendolyn van Paasschen. Makin, who died in 2015, was an economist at the American Enterprise Institute. Van Paasschen is a garden designer. Lynda and William H. Webster bought the house in 1993.

He was chair of the Homeland Security Advisory Council from 2005 to 2020.
“It’s just so isolated,” Webster said. “It’s three miles to downtown, [but] I don’t feel like I’m in a city. I feel like I’m in a little town because I hardly ever have to get on a major highway. … And Bill having left government, we just had a need for privacy.”Webster added, “I love the country, and you feel like you’re in the country up there.”
