“During our travels in Europe, we would stay in these nice villas and estates in the south of France and realized these should exist in the U.S.,” says Ezra Glass, co-founder of LXIV Group, of the circa-1840 Georgetown Manse estate, which the company purchased in 2022. “We wanted to combine that feeling of being in a grand estate with all the privacy, security, space and everything else you get in those home-style comforts with the services of really nice five-star hotels. It’s very infrequent that you get both.”
