Welcome to this wonderful riverside retreat tucked away deep in the neighborhood and very close to the scenic banks of the Potomac River. This beautiful 4 bedroom, 3 1/2 bath home offers a rare blend of privacy, comfort and seasonal beauty. A new roof was installed in 2017 with a transferable warranty and all 56 windows were replaced in 2013. All new toilets installed in 2025. Set on a wooded lot, the property is thoughtfully designed and perfect for full-time living or weekend getaways. There is also an inground sprinkler system for the lawn and specimen size plantings. Inside, you’ll find spacious living areas with abundant natural light, a well-appointed kitchen with a sub-zero fridge and freezer, a first floor office and powder room, with the ability to extend and build out a first floor bedroom suite. The large living and dining areas flow off the kitchen and offer plenty of space to relax and enjoy. As you step out onto the deck you are surrounded by trees and greenery and when the leaves have fallen, you can enjoy views of the river. There is also a walk basement to the back yard and a full bedroom and bathroom on the lower level. As you walk down the property, discover a screened in gazebo nestled among the trees, a truly special feature that offers a tranquil perch above the forest floor. Whether you're sipping morning coffee in the gazebo or hosting friends for a firepit, this home captures the best of all seasons in a setting that feels like a private retreat. The property is on historic land as it sits on part of the original five farms of George Washington's Mount Vernon Estate. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of history and paradise on the Potomac.
