About this home

Room for Generations. A Private Retreat. An Opportunity to Make It Your Own. There are houses that impress you with finishes, and houses that win you over with the way they live. 708 Potomac Knolls is the latter- a private retreat on 3 wooded acres in one of McLean's most peaceful enclaves. With generous living spaces and a finished lower level featuring a full kitchen, two additional bedrooms and flexible living areas, this property offers exceptional potential for multigenerational living, extended family or long-term guests, all within one substantial residence. A stately all-brick home, the property offers a rare combination of privacy, acreage and the opportunity to create a home that reflects your own style. A grand two-story foyer introduces an expansive floor plan with 6 bedrooms, 5 full baths, 2 half baths and 5 fireplaces. Formal living and dining rooms provide gracious entertaining spaces, while the soaring family room with dramatic stone fireplace and private study with custom built-ins offer inviting places to gather, work and unwind. The chef's kitchen opens to a generous eat-in area, bringing everyone together at the heart of the home. The upper-level primary suite offers a spacious retreat with a sitting area, large en-suite bath and additional flex space ideal for a private lounge, gym or dressing room. The finished lower level expands the possibilities with its own kitchen, two bedrooms, flexible living space and abundant storage, offering versatility for a variety of living arrangements. Outside, summer afternoons belong to the pool, surrounded by flagstone hardscaping, retaining walls and thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces. An outdoor built-in grill makes entertaining effortless, while mature trees create a peaceful backdrop for relaxing and gathering with family and friends. At 708 Potomac Knolls, the setting is special, the scale is generous and the possibilities are extensive. For buyers seeking privacy, outdoor living, room for multiple generations and the chance to personalize a substantial home, this is an opportunity to create something truly your own in a coveted McLean setting. *AI-Generated Conceptual Image: This image is an AI-generated rendering intended to illustrate potential landscaping and exterior design ideas only.
