The splendid Perry Belmont House, a stately Beaux Arts mansion located on New Hampshire Avenue NW in the Dupont Circle neighborhood of Washington, D.C., is the International Headquarters of the Order of the Eastern Star. This breathtaking building houses the business offices of the Order of the Eastern Star and a portion of the House is the residence of the Right Worthy Grand Secretary of Eastern Star.

This landmark has a rich and exciting history beginning with having been designed by renowned Parisian architect Ernest-Paul Sanson. The three-story, wedge-shaped building occupies an entire triangular city block. It was said when it was built in 1909 that it made the White House look tiny. There are eleven fireplaces, most with hand-carved marble mantles. All the marble in the house was brought from Italy, all of the wood from Germany and all the metal fixtures from France.
