Washington Capitals forward T.J. Oshie has just purchased a new mansion in Northern Virginia. According to the Washington Business Journal, Oshie and his wife Lauren paid $7.5 million earlier this month for a newly constructed 9,890-square-foot home on Dogue Hill Lane. The five-bedroom, eight-bath home is within the exclusive Langley Farms community.
Work on the home was completed in 2021, though the property was originally listed in November 2020 for $7.95 million, according to realtor.com. The asking price was upped to $8.295 million in June 2021 before selling March 3 for $7.5 million.
According to Washington Business Journal, the three-story property features custom steel doors, a “dramatic water feature on the back patio,” upper-level terrace with barbecue station, light-filled gallery and library, “dramatic formal staircase,” elevator, “grand main suite with two large dressing rooms and a dramatic cathedral ceilings,” fitness studio, game room and pool.

“We think it’s the nicest house we’ve ever built, and we’ve won awards for best new home above 7,000 square feet in Northern Virginia,” said Jeff Griffin of Alexandria’s Griffin Moran, adding the Oshies were “just a pleasure to deal with.”
The sale comes five years after Oshie, then 30, signed an eight-year, $46 million deal with the Capitals. Also in 2017, the Oshies acquired the Langley Lane home of Boston Properties’ executive Ray Ritchey for $5.2 million. That home remains in the couple’s possession and has not yet hit the market, according to public records and various listing sites, but it is expected to at some point.
