Open House Cancelled, Sorry Set on a private corner lot in North Potomac, this beautifully maintained Colonial blends classic architecture with modern comfort. The backyard retreat features a heated saltwater pool, gazebo, and privacy fencing—ideal for entertaining or quiet evenings at home. Inside, refinished hardwood floors enhance the main level, where a welcoming family room with built-ins and two fireplaces—one wood-burning, one propane—creates a warm gathering space. The kitchen features new LVP flooring, generous cabinetry, and a comfortable casual dining area that flows naturally into the family and living rooms for easy everyday living. Upstairs, you’ll find four spacious bedrooms, including two with ensuite baths that offer flexibility for guests, teens, or extended family. The additional two bedrooms share a full hall bath, and the upper-level laundry room adds everyday convenience. Fresh carpeting throughout gives the entire level a clean, updated feel. The lower level extends your options even further with an oversized bedroom featuring its own ensuite bath and built-ins—a perfect setup for guests, a home office, or a private gym. A Tesla charger in the two-car garage completes the list of thoughtful upgrades. Tucked within a quiet, established North Potomac neighborhood, you’re just minutes from local parks, nature trails, shopping, wineries and commuter routes. Enjoy weekends at Seneca Creek State Park, Muddy Branch Greenway, and easy access to nearby recreation centers, dining, and conveniences.
