The rowhouse’s renovation
was designed by the Dupont Cir-

Mike Green’s career on the ice
may be winding down, but he may
be just starting a career as a
house-flipper. A 1914 rowhouse in
the Kalorama Triangle neighbor-
hood of Northwest Washington
came on the market a couple of
months ago, after being renovat-
ed by the NHL hockey player and
his wife, Courtney Parrie Green.
“My wife and I have a lot of ties
to Washington,” Green wrote in
an email. “Having kids, we real-
ized how much we wanted to
share our ties and explore the city
from within. We e njoy the process
of home renovations. Although
we have listed it, we want to be in
the D.C. area. If we do sell, we will
look for another project immedi-
ately.”
When the veteran defenseman
left the Washington Capitals in
2015 for the Detroit Red Wings,
he sold his house in the Franklin
Park neighborhood of McLean,
Va., for $2.8 million. He bought
this rowhouse in 2017 f or $1.3 mil-
lion.
In S eptember of 2017, Courtney
wrote on Instagram: “Mike, [son]
Axel and I are beyond excited to
turn our 191 4 row house into a
home with the help of this bright
light and beautiful mind [interior
designer Jeremiah Brent].” She
also posted a photo of the three of
them in front of the house.
More than two years later, in
December 2019, Mike wrote on
Instagram: “A s of a week ago, the
final touches on our DC home
renovations were complete,” and
he went on to thank “hardwork-
ing visionaries” — the builder, the
architect and the interior design-
