About this home

Tucked away on a quiet court in the prestigious Potomac Falls neighborhood, this just-over-2.5-acre setting is the kind of property that rarely comes to market: private, serene, and naturally beautiful, backing to a meandering creek and bridle trail, with Great Falls and the C&O Canal an easy hike away. A sweeping horseshoe driveway sets a gracious arrival and commanding curb presence. Fully gut, renovate, and reimagine the existing six-bedroom residence, with more than 7,000 square feet across three levels, or start fresh and build a custom home in this exceptional setting. The residence's well-proportioned floor plan begins with a center foyer opening to a formal dining room, a library with fireplace, and a living room spanning nearly 34 feet. The kitchen, with soaring vaulted ceilings and an adjoining morning room anchored by a fireplace, is the natural heart of the home. A main-level primary suite with walk-in closet and generous bath and dressing spaces offers the ease of one-level living. Upstairs, five additional bedrooms include an expansive suite of more than 25 feet. The expansive walk-out lower level features a recreation room with fireplace opening to the grounds, a game room, den, craft room, and three baths. Its generous footprint provides ample space to create a home theater, gym, wine room, and guest suite. A two-car garage completes the residence. Meaningful improvements are already complete, including a brand-new septic system and extensive restoration work on the slate roof. A renovation permit is already in hand, offering a head start for those looking to transform the existing residence. Buyers interested in building anew may pursue permits for demolition and new construction. The location is exceptional, moments from the shops and dining of Potomac Village with convenient access to Bethesda, Washington, DC, and Northern Virginia. The home is in the Churchill High School cluster and near leading private schools including Bullis, Holy Child, and Norwood, with Congressional Country Club and the trails of Great Falls close at hand. A rare opportunity to create a signature Potomac residence in one of the community's most exclusive settings. Public record reflects total square footage of 7,043. All measurements are approximate.
