If Stephanie Stack's new wallpapered walls could talk, the stories they could tell. The singer/songwriter and her husband recently purchased and remodeled the beautiful home in Alexandria that once belonged to George W. Bush's brother Marvin. Marvin has since relocated to a $2.5M unit in Turnberry Tower. With the help of designer Kelley Proxmire, the mansion was transformed "from what might be described as old Washington" into a home that's "more cosmopolitan and trendy". [WaPo; previously]
