About This Home

As of April 2025

Beautifully situated on a quiet street with gorgeous premium landscaping, just a short walk from the River Falls Swim & Tennis Club, this all handsome brick Gosnell-built colonial is an absolute classic Potomac home. The rarely available Bradford model, over 4,000 SF, features a coveted floorplan with refinished hardwoods on the main and upper levels, a welcoming entry foyer with a curved staircase and main floor Study/Library. Abundant natural light pours through the large windows on all sides. The Formal Living with wood burning fireplace opens to the Foyer and the Formal Dining Room. The Dining Room open onto the Eat-In Kitchen and flows perfectly into the Family Room with wood paneling and brick fireplace. There's the main level library with a wall of built-ins - perfect for those who work from home. Upstairs you will find five spacious bedrooms and three full baths. The generously proportioned Primary Suite has a dressing area, Full Bath & bountiful closet space. There's potential for a 2nd floor laundry in this area. The fifth bedroom could be opened to the Primary to make a Nursery or Primary Sitting Room or a grand walk-in closet. The huge, daylight walk-out lower level offers a Recreation/Game Room, Bonus Room/Gym/Au Pair Suite & copious amounts of unfinished storage space. This meticulously maintained one owner home presents an incredible opportunity to take the timeless style and impeccable construction quality and transform it into your dream home. The backyard of this home offers the best of both worlds - access from the main level AND a daylight, walk-out lower level. There's plenty of playspace and a large tract of County woodlands behind - total privacy! Once you live here you'll know River Falls offers easy access to the best of everything the DC area has to offer - close to Potomac Village, I-495, The Clara Barton Pkwy, The Billy Goat Trail and so, so much more. There is easy access to both major airports - Regan National and Dulles International. Dining and shopping options are nearby. Purchasing now will allow you to move into the neighborhood in time for the summer season with the swim team, tennis team, River Falls Camp, the Memorial Day Barbecue, the July 4th parade and picnic & so much more!
